Your heavy-duty truck sits high, but your trailer needs to tow level. This fixed mount fits a 2-1/2" hitch, gives you 2" of drop to bring the coupler height where it needs to be, and comes with a pre-torqued 2-5/16" ball ready to tow.
A trailer that rides nose-high can affect how it handles behind your truck. This fixed ball mount provides 2" of drop to help bring your trailer closer to level when your truck's hitch sits higher than the coupler.
The 2-5/16" hitch ball comes installed and factory pre-torqued, so you don't have to mount the ball or break out the tools to torque it yourself.
An e-coat beneath the matte black powder coat gives the ball mount two layers of corrosion protection. The black nickel-plated 2-5/16" hitch ball also helps resist rust and wear.

Arrived quickly! Super easy install. Great price. This is the second trailer hitch I've purchased grin etrsiler
We will see how it is in a year. For now I will quit getting teased about my rusty old draw bar on my new truck. As always Etrailer had what I needed and got it to me in a hurry at a reasonable price.
Top quality. Easy installation. Did it myself. Have a torque wrench and some arm strength.
Nice ball hitch! Now I have to remove it until I get a lock. Someone will lift this baby.
It is strong and sturdy and most importantly, etrailer was the only place I could find this size trailer ball mount, which was critical since using an adapter would have significantly reduced the towing capacity of my trailer hitch.
WOW! This is much heavier that my last hitch. The steel is like twice as thick and much heavier than I expected. I'm not afraid to load this thing to max capacity.
Found that the ball is the wrong size should be 2.5/16" not 2". Guess I'll have order that one, hopefully the color.
The 2” receiver ball hitch is a 5 star product. Very professional quality and build.
Looks nice but the weight is not stamped in the reciever it is on a sticker. It is stamped in the ball.
I was questioning going with the lower cost etrailer brand of this. I only need this drop on occasion. But trust me, I was shocked at the quality and how well this is made! Excellent item
Fast shipping, and great product quality
Worked great. Used it with our 2019 Honda CRV to tow a U-Haul trailer 650 miles. No issues. Also, initially I thought it was too much rise, but I'm glad I got it because I had underestimated how much lower the car was to the trailer especially when loaded. There was a little clunking but to be expected when towing.
Just what I needed. Measured from the floor to the center of the ball, 18 1/2 inches for towing a u-haul trailer. This is what they say for hauling their trailers flat.
Etrailer recommended this for our 2025 Honda CRV. The product is fine, but the recommendation was wrong. Every trailer we've hooked to this 4" drop is too low.
Nice quality. Solid ball mount upgrading to 10,000 lbs.
I had to replace the 2” ball with a 1 7/8” ball to fit my small utility trailer. Otherwise it is working perfectly. Happy with this purchase.
Correct fit. Works with my etrailer locking hitch pin thingy.
I have about a half-dozen ball mounts of various brands and this one is the nicest.
After one season of salt-water use, the usual progression of rust and flaking paint seems slower than expected. It has a matte finish that I find pleasing. The pin, ball, threads, and nut all seem of slightly higher quality than is typical.
Based on this product, I would choose etrailer mounts over others in the future.
They have great customer service as well, in my experience.
We have a 25 4Runner and a 10’cargo trailer to haul woodworking projects from fair to fair. A previous ball hitch with 4” drop still hauled the trailer in a upward position and I didn’t want the rear end to drag going in and out of transitional areas. The 6” drop ball hitch works perfect and still allows the trailer to ride level and the rear hatch to open without hitting trailer . Thanks eTrailer for offering a variety of ball hitches for a accurate ride during travel!!!
Very solid construction with specs that exceed what I need to pull my boat. Pre-torqued ball. Good looking black nickel-plated ball looks good with my blacked out Jeep Grand Cherokee!
Spencer was a big help. I had looked a ton of brake
Controllers he advised me on what I needed
For my 2026 ram 1500. The product was delivered
Quickly and fairly easy to install.
Great edition to the 2” hitch but I really didn’t need it. I found an older one in a storage box that included locking hitch pin & plug for the receiver. Decided it would have been to too costly to return.
Definitely need at least a 4 inch drop. This one is supposed to be a 2 inch drop but looks level with no drop
All parts arrived perfectly and were securely packaged. I opted to install the trailer package myself and completed it with no problems at all. I would definitely order from etrailer again for sure.
