When you’re pulling a full-size camper, livestock trailer, or heavy equipment hauler, you need a mount that won’t flinch under pressure. This forged steel ball mount is rated for 20,000 lbs gross towing weight and 2,000 lbs tongue weight. It delivers solid, one-piece strength you can count on for serious towing jobs, without needing any extra parts or adjustments.
Uneven trailers can cause sway or uneven wear. This mount gives you a precise 2" drop to keep your trailer sitting level behind your truck. The result is smoother tracking and more stable handling with every load. Its fixed design keeps things simple and dependable—just slide it in, secure it with a pin or lock, and go.
No need to mount or torque your own hitch ball. This setup comes pre-fitted with a 2-5/16" chrome-plated ball that’s torqued to factory specs and ready to use immediately. That means less time in the garage and more time on the road. It’s a straightforward setup that takes the guesswork out of towing prep.
Rain, salt, and road grime can take their toll on towing gear. The solid steel shank is protected with a corrosion-resistant carbide black powder coat that stands up to rust, chipping, and UV damage. Paired with the chrome-plated ball, this finish keeps your setup looking sharp and working reliably season after season.
Once mounted in your 2-1/2" receiver, this ball mount pairs perfectly with a locking pin like the etrailer Hitch Receiver Lock # e98881 (sold separately). It’s an easy way to add peace of mind when you leave your setup on the vehicle, keeping everything locked tight and ready whenever you need to tow.

Thank you, delivered exactly what I ordered, when you said it was to be delivered. Well packaged, couldn’t have been any better. Looking at upgrading my lights and will give you a call
Awesome customer service and a quality product.
For years ive had the 2 inch version and it has been the best hitch ive ever used. My new truck came with a 2 1/2 receiver so i upgraded instead of using the adapter and i am pleased so far. Exactly what i had expected, great product.
Quality product. Excellent service
Holy cow! This thing is heavy duty.
Which it should be, because it ain’t cheap! If you’re dragging heavy, you need to remember, it only costs 50% more to go first class!
I might lose a trailer, but, it won’t be because the hitch broke!
Great heavy duty fast shipping
Thank you for the fast and smooth deliv ery.
Very nice and very heavy duty. Well ma de.
We have been extremely satisfied with the purchase of this trailer hitch mount. We have used it for about a year towing a dump trailer, almost every day, and we haven't had any issues with it.
Hitch ball mount looks good and fits in the tube. There is a little wiggle in the tube but doesn’t seem to be enough to cause trouble. I need to invert the mount to get a 1/2” rise but the nut is 7/8” flat to flat. I don’t have a socket big enough to fit that. So I’m either going to have to buy or borrow one.
Curt products are great. Built like a brick s*** house. I won’t even consider any other brand. I’ve used them for decades and have zero issues with them. Got a new truck that has a 2 1/2 hitch so I had to get a bigger set.
