I am very satisfied with this product and have not had any problems with it for over a year of using it, good product at a good price. thanks etrailer



by:

Heavy Duty, well made, and long enough to clear my car's bumper (2015 Subaru Outback 3.6R).



by:

The hitch and wiring was very easy to install after watching the installation videos. They were extremely helpful and showed exactly what I needed to do.



by:

It was easy. That’s what I like. Went online, selected my car, and brought up exactly what I needed, Hitch, wiring, everything. Received my order promptly, and installed the hitch and the wiring in about an hour. Had very simple instructions. I would order from etrailer again.

by:

Purchased a hitch a week before camping. It came timely, clear instruction. I bolted it up and wired the light in about an hour. I had difficulty cleaning the weld nuts as my car is five years old.



by:

The order came even sooner than I expected and everything was correct. Thanks to your videos I was able to install the hitch and the wiring harness by myself. The hardest part of the job was loosening the two bolts just above the muffler. The job could have been hard but again, thanks to your videos, the job was really quite easy.



by:

This product was excellent! I love how you can hide the hitch when not using it. I watched the easy to install videos, and even though the video instructions were excellently done and made the installation seem fairly simple, I decided to have it installed professionally. When I priced out all off the parts needed, etrailer was about $150 cheaper then other web-sites; Since the installation only cost me $143, I figured I would use my savings to pay someone who knows what they are doing to install it. When you purchase the main part for this hitch, click on "Other Items Customers Purchased who Purchased this Part' (or something like this) and you will be able to figure out the other parts needed (i.e, the ball). Shipping was super fast, I received my purchase in 3 days. I give the product and web-site an A++++++!



by:

Both of these products that i ordered have worked great for my application. I had a hitch that went to far away from the light hookup for the trailer, in which i have to use an extention to get lights on my trailer. The convert a ball is great for when i change from a 2" to a 2 5/8" tongue trailer which is very frequent and is alot better than changing hitches all the time.



by:

Very happy withthe product and the quality of care and service from etrailer.com. Everything arrived ahead of time even with the holidays, well packed and ready for use.

Thank you!

  • Solution for Needing A Little More Clearance to Allow Tailate to Fold Down and Not Hit Jack
    Hey Carl, I think I have a better solution but I would need more info from you to give you the exact part number you need. So your best solution will be a ball mount that has a longer distance between the hitch ball hole and the hitch pin hole. So to get you what you'd need I would need to know the current distance of that on your ball mount, the size hitch your ball mount is for, and the amount of rise/drop your current ball mount has. Hitch extension add a bit of movement so they aren't...

  • Adding Brakes To A Shorelander Single Axle Boat Trailer
    Hello Dan. This trailer currently has no brakes correct? It may be possible to add electric brakes, as long as the axle is equipped with a 4-bolt brake flange. If no brake flange is present, you would either need to have them added to the axle, or replace the axle entirely. If you do have a brake flange, you can add electric brakes without too much trouble. You will need to get brake assemblies, hub/drum assemblies, a 7-way trailer wiring harness, an emergency breakaway kit, and an electric...

  • Best Extended Ball Mount for Towing a 4,000 lbs Trailer
    Hey Ben! All of the hitch extenders like the Gen-Y item # GY89SR are going to reduce your hitch's capacity by 50% so I am not sure that's going to work with your Land Rover's towing capacity. So long as you are not using a ball mount with a bunch of drop the easiest way to get some extra distance is to use the Hidden Hitch Ball Mount item # 80232. The Hidden Hitch Ball Mount item # 80232 is 15-3/4" long from the hitch pin hole to the center of the hitch ball. It does have 2" of drop built...

  • Will the Roadmaster Dual Hitch Adapter Work w/ a Bike Rack and Extended Ball Mount?
    Yes, on the bike rack but no on the Hidden Hitch Ball Mount item # 80232. You can't tow a trailer with the Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter item # RM-077-2 anyways. That is only designed to be used for flat-towing plus you will lose half of your hitch's capacity because it's an adapter. Instead, you will want to use the Replacement Shank for Gen-Y Adjustable Ball Mount item # 325-GH-303. This will have no impact on your hitch's capacity, has a 10,000 lbs towing capacity, and a 1,500...

  • How to Carry a Bike Rack and Tow a Trailer At the Back of a Tow Vehicle
    What you're wanting to do can be accomplished, but we'll need to get you some different equipment because you never want to use 2 adapters, and from my experience all of the dual receiver options using the style you're showing in your diagram, similar to the Malone # MPG544, will actually reduce the weight ratings by 50% instead of 25%. (plus each accessory that reduces the weight rating will be reducing the original weight rating of the hitch - not the "new" weight rating achieved by using...

  • Can the Hidden Hitch Ball Mount Be Used Upside Down
    If you're meaning can you use the Hidden Hitch Ball Mount # 80232 in either orientation then the answer is yes you can. You can use this ball mount right side up and get 3/4" of rise, or you can flip it upside down and get 2" of drop.

  • Can Patriot Hitches Adjustable Drop Hitch Receiver Be Used With Hitch Extender
    I do have a solution, but I would not recommend using a hitch extender with the Patriot Hitches Adjustable Drop Hitch Receiver # PH67SR. This receiver won't reduce the capacity of your hitch, but an extender will reduce the capacity by 50%. You're also going to be adding 3 parts to your hitch when you include the ball mount. Doing so will likely give you a lot of unwanted movement and a less than pleasant towing experience. Instead, I recommend using an extended ball mount like the Hidden...

  • Can Dual Receiver and Hitch Extender Be Used Together For Towing with a Bike Rack
    It would be too dangerous to use the Curt Extender # C45796 with a dual receiver like that as it would put too much movement on all of the different parts and extenders like this cut your tongue weight in half so your Tacoma would be overloaded. Instead I recommend checking out the following parts to see if this will potentially work for your scenario: - Replacement Shank for Gen-Y Adjustable Ball Mount # 325-GH-304 - Thule Camber Bike Rack for 4 Bikes # TH9056 - Hidden Hitch Ball...

    You do not lose any towing capacity when you use the Hidden Hitch Ball Mount # 80232 despite it's longer length of 15 inches.

  • How Can Longer Ball Mount Not Reduce Hitch Weight Capacity
    Technically any additional length is going to increase leverage on the trailer hitch. But there isn't an exact standard length ball mount so going super technical on how much the force multiplied when the ball mount is beyond a certain length is just not something our manufacturers do. So when you combine that with fact that most ball mounts are not that much longer than others the tongue weight capacity of a vehicle is not reduced when using a longer ball mount like the part # 80232....

  • Longer Ball Mount Solution to Help Tailgate to Trailer Jack Clearance

  • Solution for Needing 6 inch Hitch Extender that Can Tow 5,000 lb Towing Capacity
    The Curt hitch extender part # C76DR is a 6 inch extender but it has a 3,500 lb weight capacity that won't work with a 5,000 lb capacity but I do have a solution with an extra long ball mount like the part # 80232 which is 15-3/4 inch length and would give you the additional length you need while still having the capacity you need.

  • Recommended Weight Distribution System or Extended Ball Mount for Clearing a Tail Gate
    Yeah, there are no TorkLift SuperHitches available for a 2023 Jeep Gladiator or any Jeep. Those are the heaviest duty bumper pull hitches and are reserved for large trucks with the highest towing capacities. You'll want to look into a weight distribution system with an extended shank if your Gladiator's hitch is rated for one. If you have a hitch that mounts underneath your frame like the Curt item # C74DR you can use a weight distribution system. For a 550 lbs tongue weight, I recommend...

  • Can I Use an Extended Ball Mount w/ a Hitch Extender?
    Yes, you can use the Hidden Hitch Ball Mount item # 80232 with the Draw-Tite Hitch Extender for 2" Hitch Receivers - 18" Long item # HE18. Using this hitch extender will however reduce the capacity of the hitch on your 1999 F-350 by 50%. I recommend using the Buyers Products Hitch Extender w/ Step - 2" Hitch - 18" Long item # 3371804017. It is the same length of 18" but will only reduce your hitches capacity by 1/3.

  • How to Gain Trailer Towing Clearance with Owl Vans Cargo Box on a 2022 Sprinter Van
    Since this is towing, using an extension would mean the weight capacity is reduced, BUT you might be able to get away with a ball mount that has an extra long shank: - Hidden Hitch Ball Mount # 80232 This guy has a weight capacity of 6,000 lbs, offers a 3/4" Rise/2" Drop, and measures 15-.3/4" from the hitch pin hole to the center of the hitch ball hole so it at least gets you closer to the edge of the Owl Vans Cargo Box you're using.

    I would be happy to help you. Our longest ball mount is going to be 15-3/4" long and it is the Hidden Hitch Ball Mount item # 80232. This ball mount has a 6,000 lbs capacity so it will definitely be able to handle your boat trailer. For a 2" ball you will want the item # 40038.

  • Availability of Longer Ball Mount to Fit 2 inch Trailer Hitch
    The Hidden Hitch ball mount part # 80232 is a longer ball mount that fits 2 inch hitches. It is 15-3/4 inches from the pin hole to the ball hole center. This is a Class III ball mount but there aren't any in Class IV.

  • How to Add Length to a Boat Trailer Tongue to Avoid Backing Vehicle Into the Water
    Hey Robert, thanks for reaching out! The best options we have to add length to your trailer tongue is with the Fulton Fold-Away Coupler Hinge which comes with Weld-On # FHDPW330300 and Bolt-On # FHDPB330301 installations. These have a 5,000 lb max weight rating, but that decreases the more length you add. Aside from this we have longer ball mounts like the Hidden Hitch Ball Mount # 80232 you purchased that can also help add more length to your setup.

  • Extra Long Ball Mount Recommendation for 2" Hitch Receiver and 2-5/16" Hitch Ball
    It sounds like you're needing a longer ball mount like the Hidden Hitch Ball Mount # 80232. This measures 15-3/4" from the center of the hitch pin hole to the center of the hole where the hitch ball is installed which should be pretty close to 12" longer than a standard ball mount. This can be used as a 3/4" rise or 2" drop depending on what you're needing. For a ball mount you can use the 2-5/16" Hitch Ball # 63847 and then I also recommend using an anti-rattle hitch pin like the Let's...

  • Recommendation For Extension For 2019 Honda Pilot For Towing Boat That Doesn't Reduce Capacities
    I have a possible option for you, but due to adding another point an extension will reduce your vehicle's capacities by 50%, so you'd only be able to towing something with no more than 250lbs of tongue weight. Instead your only option would be using an extra long ball mount such as the # 80232 which measures 15-3/4" from the center of the hitch pin hole to the center of the hitch ball hole, which should be quite a bit longer than your current ball mount. Since this ball mount is not adding...

    For your 2013 Jeep Wrangler JK Unlimited I recommend the Hidden Hitch Ball Mount # 80232. This ball mount has a length of 15-3/4"(400mm) from center of hitch pin hole to center of ball hole. That will give you an additional 3-15/16"(100mm) over your current ball mount.

    While you are able to use a Ball Mount # 80232 for your trailer I recommend going with a Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution # EQ37061ET. This will help to distribute the weight more evenly across your 2022 Jeep Wrangler 4xe as well as help you keep the trailer tracking straight with the addition of sway control. This particular hitch is rated for 200-600lbs of tongue weight and a trailer up to 6,000lbs. The Extended Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank # EQ90-02-4600 will help to move the hitch back...
