When you’re towing something serious, you want a hitch that won’t flinch under pressure. The Captain’s heavy-duty carbon steel build is rated for a 30,000 lbs gross towing weight and a 2,000 lbs maximum tongue weight. Whether it’s a loaded equipment trailer or a full-size camper, this mount stays solid and keeps control steady mile after mile.
Switching trailers doesn’t have to mean swapping hardware. This setup covers just about everything with three hitch balls—1-7/8", 2", and 2-5/16"—plus a built-in pintle hook and D-ring. Standard ball couplers, lunette rings up to 3", or recovery setups all connect in one spot, making it a go-to piece of gear for anyone who tows more than one rig.
Hooking up different trailers is fast thanks to the removable pintle lock that stows neatly on the underside when not in use. Two hitch pin holes—at 2-1/2" and 4-3/16" from the rear of the shank—let you fine-tune how far the mount sits in the receiver. The shank fits any 2" x 2" hitch receiver, locking in tight for a steady pull every time.
Rain, salt, or road grime can eat away at a hitch over time, but this one’s built to hold up. The textured black powder coat finish fights corrosion while the D-ring and clips add a sharp blue accent that stands out without sacrificing durability. It’s made for long-haul dependability in tough conditions without needing extra care.

Hi everyone, Steve here with etrailer.com. Today we're looking at the Patriot hitches five-way three ball mount for 2-inch hitches, rated at 30,000 pounds capacity with a nice blue accent trim. Now the ball mount, as you know, lets you hook up your trailer with the tow vehicle. In this case, it's a 2-inch by 2-inch shank receiver mating up with your 2-inch receiver tube on your tow vehicle. From there, the balls here or the lunette ring connection here for a pin hooks connection would then be that next connection point to couplers and pin hooks. Now the D-ring on front will allow for multiple off-roading and recovery uses.
It's got a nice hard plastic insert in there as well. Now you can remove both of these 5/8-inch pin and clips and rotate this as necessary to change ball sizes. You got 2-5/16, 2-inch, 1-7/8, and, of course, the D-ring or lunette ring adapter. You can actually pull this off, flip it upside down for storage. That way it's not in the way if you're doing a 2-5/16 coupler as well.
Everything here meets all SAE J 684 safety tow regulations. It's a heavy-duty carbon steel construction so it's gonna be ideal for to those extra heavy loads. And it's got this beautiful black powder coat finish on the metal parts that are in black and the blue powder coat on the blue accents. Rated at 30,000 pounds capacity and a max tongue weight of 2,000 pounds. This should be more than enough to get most, if not, all jobs that you need done.
So quick dimensions, 12-inches overall on a length, a height from the bottom of the block up to the top of the ball, 7-5/8. And from the center of the hitch pin hole up here with the pin attachment to the back, 6-1/2-inches. The next one in sequence back 4-3/16 and find the closest to the back 2-1/2 on center. Well, folks, that should wrap it up for our quick look together at this Patriot hitch five-way three ball mount for 2-inch hitches with the blue accent. I'm Steven, thanks for watching.

Hey, Dale. I'm trying to visualize what you mean by hitch lock down. If you could send me a picture or explain it more. I can see if there is a different solution to help get you to what you want.
Do you have a question about this Trailer Hitch Ball Mount?
