Video Transcript for Review of Fastway Trailer Hitch Ball Mount - Flash Force Adj 2 Ball Mount 2-1/2 Inch Hitch - FA43FR

Hi everybody. Andy here with etrailer. Let's take a quick look at this Fastway Flash Force adjustable two ball mount for your two and a half inch trailer hitch receiver. So this is an adjustable dual ball mount that's designed to make towing different trailers easier and more convenient. So instead of swapping out different ball mounts every time you tow a different trailer, this one has two built-in hitch balls. You got your two inch and your two and five-16th inch balls.

So you're gonna be able to quickly switch between the two depending on which coupler you're using. So let me just show you real quick how easy it is to switch the ball. I went ahead and removed the clip and then you removed the pin and then that's going to allow you to easily swap the ball. So you can go from your two and five 16 inch to your two inch. And then I'm just gonna go ahead and replace the pin into the appropriate hole here and then replace the clip.

And that's how easy it's gonna be to swap the ball out. So for the two inch ball, you're gonna have a a capacity of 8,000 pounds. For the two and five-16th inch ball, your capacity is gonna be up to 18,000 pounds. So as I mentioned, this is gonna slide into your two and a half inch trailer hitch receiver, which is typically found on more of your heavy duty trucks. The hitch falls are chrome plated, which is gonna help prevent rust and corrosion.

So they're gonna hold up really well over time. Of course, one of the biggest advantages here is going to be the adjustable height. So let me show you how that works. We're gonna remove the clips here and the pins. So once I do that, as I'm sure you're familiar with, you're gonna be able to easily move this up and down to get that adjustment that you're looking for.

Now this is going to give you either a four, four and a half inch drop, or you can flip this over and it'll give you a four and a half inch rise. So either four and a half inch drop or four and a half inch rise. And then you're gonna be able to move the ball up or down in one inch increments to match the height of different trailers. So this is gonna be very easy to keep your trailer level regardless of your setup. And then once you find that right height, again, you'll just secure it with pins and clips. This is also stowable, so when you're not towing you can easily flip this underneath the shank so you're not going to have to worry about banging up your shins or something like that when you are walking behind your truck. And you can also rotate the balls laterally, if you will, to better fit underneath if you wanna do that. So, as you can see, it's gonna be very easy to get those adjustments, to stow this, whatever's going to work best for you. So I'm gonna go ahead and replace my pins here and then the clips here on this side. And you're also going to, it features an anti-theft design. So when used with locking pins, which are sold separately, the adjustable arm and ball mount can't be removed from the hitch. So that's a nice added bonus. So for durability, the whole unit is made from solid forged steel finished with a black corrosion resistant coating. So it is built to handle heavy duty towing in those tough environments. I went ahead and took some measurements before our time together just so you have a good idea of the size of this unit. So measuring from the center of our ball to the center of our first hitch pin, we're sitting pretty close to nine and three-eighths inches. When you move to the center of our second hitch pin hole, it's gonna be about 10 and a half inches. And then from the center of the second hitch pin hole to the end of the shank, about two and three-eighths inches. So we do have other versions of this available whether you're looking for a different rise or drop. Do take a look at those other options if you're looking for something on the same order of this, but with some different measurements in regards to drop or rise. But if you do have any other questions, don't hesitate to reach out. We do wanna make sure that you're getting exactly what you need. Well, again, my name's Andy. Thank you for joining me.
