Video Transcript for Review of Trimax Locks Trailer Hitch Ball Mount - Razor Ultra Max Adj Alum 2 Ball 2-1/2 In - TMX45QR

Hi, everybody, Andy here with etrailer. Let's take a quick look at this Trimax Razor Ultra Max adjustable aluminum two-ball mount for your 2.5-inch trailer hitch receiver. So this adjustable hitch is going to allow you to fine-tune the height of your trailer connection, so everything's gonna stay level while you're towing. This is going to give you up to 12 inches of drop in this orientation. And then when you flip it over, you're gonna get about 12 inches of rise. So you're gonna be able to adjust the height or drop in one-inch increments.

It's gonna be really easy to dial in the exact height that you're looking for. So this is aluminum, and as you know, aluminum is much lighter than steel. So as a result, this is gonna be a lot easier to handle when you're installing it, adjusting the height, or just taking it on and off of your truck. That can make a big difference if you're moving it around or you just don't want to deal with a heavy hitch. So I'm just walking you through how easy this is going to be to get that height adjustment that you're looking for or swap the ball from a 2 5/16-inch to a 2-inch, just like that.

Another nice benefit that this offers you is, when you're not using this, you can stow the ball platform and just put it behind the shank just like this. And then of course, you'll replace the pin and clip to secure this. So, as I hope, you can see, it's gonna be very easy just to get that adjustment, get the ball size that you're looking for. Another benefit of aluminum is, of course, the corrosion resistance. Aluminum doesn't rust like steel, so it's going to tend to hold up better over time.

And even though it's lightweight, it is very durable. So this aluminum is going to be great, especially if you're in areas where you get a lot of rain, snow, road salt, maybe you tow a boat trailer a lot. This is again gonna slide into your 2.5-inch trailer hitch receiver. This is rated for up to 20,000 pounds of towing capacity and 2000 pounds of tongue weight. So it can handle most heavy duty towing jobs.

And again, you're gonna get your 2 5/16-inch and two-inch ball, so you're gonna be able to tow different types of trailers without having to swap out the whole hitch, which is great. Let me go ahead and give you some measurements that I took before our time together just to kind of give you an idea of the size. Measuring from the center of the first hitch pin hole to the center of the ball, about 9 3/4 inches. Moving to the center of the second hitch pin hole, about 10 3/4 quarters inches. And then from the center of the second hitch pin hole to the end of the shank, about 1 3/4 inches. So again, you're gonna get a 12-inch drop or rise with this. We do have this available in other drop, rise, increments, whether it's eight-inch or six-inch. And if you're not looking for aluminum but looking for steel, we have steel options. So all that to say, we've got a lot of different options available to you from Trimax. I think that's gonna wrap up our look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.
