Features to know about

Keeps Your Trailer Level: 3-7/8" Rise for a Balanced Tow

A level trailer means smoother tracking and better control, especially when your hitch sits low. This ball mount has a 3-7/8" rise designed to get your trailer sitting even, so you’re not dragging the rear or lifting the front. The fixed 2" ball is ready to connect with your trailer’s coupler, keeping your setup stable from driveway to dock.

Simplifies Setup: Pre-Torqued 2" Ball That’s Ready to Tow

No tools, no guesswork—this ball mount comes pre-torqued at the factory so you can hook up and go. Just slide the shank into your 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" receiver, secure it with a pin and clip, and you’re ready to haul. It’s built for up to 3,500 lbs gross towing weight and 350 lbs tongue weight, giving you dependable strength for light-duty towing jobs without extra steps.

Stays Protected From Rust: Matte Black and Black Nickel Finish

Towing gear takes a beating from weather and road grime, but this mount fights back with two layers of rust protection. An e-coat base sits under a matte black powder coat on the shank, while the hitch ball and pin are black nickel-plated for added corrosion resistance. The result is a clean, durable finish that stays looking sharp after years of towing.

Close-up of etrailer ball mount installed in a vehicle hitch receiver, highlighting matte black powder coat and black nickel-plated 2-inch ball for corrosion resistance.

Built Solid for Everyday Use: Steel Construction That Lasts

From quick weekend runs to routine hauls, this mount’s steel build handles repeated use without flexing or flaking apart. The tight hitch pin fit minimizes rattle in the receiver, keeping your setup quiet and steady on every trip. It’s the kind of solid, no-nonsense gear you can count on to do its job again and again.

I'm excited to use it!



by:

Wpuld have liked this to be available with a 1 7/8 inch ball preinstalled



by:

The 3 7/8 rise is perfect ball just under license plate. I am very happy with all the parts and the installation job.



by:

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.



by:

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.

  • Why Does the Curt Hitch for a 2025 Honda Civic Hybrid Say Not Intended?
    Hey Abel! The Curt Hitch item # C92UR will fit the hybrid model of the 2025 Honda Civic, but there's an extra step when installing it. You have to do some trimming of the bumper area to accommodate the 1-1/4" receiver. That's why it says it isn't intended. The Curt Hitch item # C92UR is custom fit for the 2025 Honda Civic hatchback and sedan. This is a class I hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver. It has a 2,000 lbs towing capacity and 200 lbs maximum tongue weight. I have linked an installation...

    Hey Robin, thanks for reaching out. I can definitely help with any questions you may have. First, we have two trailer hitch option for your 2014 Mini Countryman, the M7 Speed MINI Ultimate Utility Hitch Receiver # 327-60-160200, and the Curt # C11333. The main difference being the M7 will use the "pop out squares" you mentioned to mount the hitch, while the Curt installs completely behind the bumper. The Curt hitch does have a higher towing capacity than the M7, but the M7 will be much...

  • Recommended 1-1/4" Hitch for a 2025 Subaru Forester
    Hey Erik congrats on the new SUV. The hitch pin hole on the Curt Hitch item # C12198 sits right at 4-1/2" inside the rear bumper when mounted on the 2025 Subaru Forester. The closest part of the Thule Helium Pro Bike Rack is 8" in from the hitch pin hole so you'll have plenty of room. The Curt Hitch item # C12198 is custom fit for the 2025 Subaru Forester. This is a class II hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver. I have linked an installation video below so you can see how to get it set up. If...

  • Recommended Hitch and Wiring Harness for a 2013 Infiniti G37 Journey Coupe
    Hey Jeff! To add a hitch to your 2013 Infiniti G37 Journey Coupe, you will need the Curt item # C11493. This is a class I hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver that is custom fit for the coupe models. It has a 1,500 lbs towing capacity and a 150 lbs maximum tongue weight. I have linked an installation video below so you can see how to get this hitch set up.

  • Parts Needed to Tow Utility Trailer With 2008 Mercedes-Benz E350 Wagon
    Hey Michael! We do have all of the parts you need to tow a utility trailer. For a hitch you can use the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11701. Then for trailer wiring to power the lights the Curt Powered Tail Light Converter with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C59236. Does the trailer have electric brakes or hydraulic surge brakes? If I had to guess it is probably hydraulic surge brakes so you won't need a 7-way or a brake controller. If it does have electric brakes you will also need...

  • Recommended 1-1/4" Hitch for a 2025 Subaru Forester
    Hey George congrats on the new SUV! The Curt Hitch item # C12198 that fits the 2025 Subaru Forester is wider and is shorter in height than the Curt item # C12100 that fit your 2014. Additionally, the hardware can not be reused once it's been installed and used which means you'd need to purchase all new hardware using the Replacement Hardware Kit item # RHK. I strongly recommend purchasing the Curt Hitch item # C12198 that is custom fit for your new 2025 Subaru Forester. The new hitch will...

  • Recommended Hitch and Wiring for a 2019 Buick Cascada
    Hey Gene! The 2019 Buick Cascada convertible has a pretty low towing capacity at 2,000 lbs. This is common amongst smaller cars that size. The Curt Trailer Hitch item # C11441 is our only option for the Cascada. It is a class I hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver. It has a 2,000 lbs towing capacity and a 200 lbs maximum tongue weight.

  • Trailer Hitch For Towing Small Kayak Trailer With 2014 Honda Accord
    Hello Leo, thanks for reaching out. You are looking for a hitch for a 2014 Honda Accord, correct? If so, the Curt Class 1 Hitch # C11681 is exactly the right hitch. It has a 2,000 lb towing capacity so more than enough for your small kayak trailer. As you intend to tow a trailer, you will also need to install the Curt T-Connector # C59236. You will also need a ball mount, and for that I recommend part # e47DR which comes with a 2" ball.

  • Ball Mount For 2023 Buick Encore GX Towing Malone XtraLight Trailer MPG526G-S
    Hello Steve, thanks for reaching out. For the ball mount, we do want to be sure the ball size and receiver size are correct, but we also want to make sure the about of drop is appropriate for your trailer. This way the trailer will be level when you tow. The trailer hitch on a 2023 Buick Encore will be about 12" from the ground. The # C45582 ball mount has 3-1/4" of drop so this will put your pall height around 8-3/4" which is honestly pretty low. Most trailers have a coupler height of...

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2024 Honda Accord
    No, it wouldn't. Your 2024 Honda Accord Hybrid Sport L has a 1,500 lbs towing capacity. You could easily stay below this with the right trailer while only hauling a 500 lbs motorcycle. Additionally, adding a hitch to your car does not void your warranty as you are covered by the Magnuson-Moss warranty act. It states that unless the part added actually causes a problem, then installation and use of the part will not void the warranty. The best hitch for your 2024 Honda Accord Hybrid Sport...

It has a max gross trailer weight of 2,000 lbs and comes with a limited lifetime warranty. If you plan on towing you will also need wiring and a ball mount.

  • Recommended Wiring Harness for a 2025 Kia K5
    Hey Vincent. As of 5/8/2025 there are no plug in wiring harnesses for a 2025 Kia K5. The only option I have today is the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness w/ 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector and Installation Kit item # 119250KIT. This kit uses sensors that clamp onto your K5's taillights without splicing into them. The sensors detect the current and activate your trailer's lights through the 4-way connector. Here are some other parts you'll need to tow a trailer with your 2025...

  • Which Trailer Hitch Fits 2021 Hyundai Sonata Limited
    Hey Jim! For a hitch that fits your 2021 Hyundai Sonata Limited I recommend the Curt # C23RV. It fits all models of the 2021 Sonata with the exception of the N-Line and hybrid. This Class I hitch has a 1-1/4" receiver, bolt-on installation, and lifetime warranty. Do you plan on towing? If so, you will also need wiring # TK97FR along with a ball mount like the etrailer Ball Mount # e47DR.

  • Has Anyone Towed Jet Ski With Toyota Avaolon Using Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver
    Hi Aj; I can't say for sure if anyone has ever used the # 24870 to tow a jet ski with a Toyota Avalon but it may be possible depending on how much it weighs and the towing capacity of your vehicle. The hitch has a capacity of 2,000 lbs. It looks like that jet ski weighs 800-1,000 lbs. Your typical jet ski trailer probably won't weight more than 300 lbs so that keeps you well under the capacity of the hitch. The only thing left to do is to find your vehicle towing capacity and make sure...

  • Will the Curt Hitch C11117 Fit a 2001 Camaro Z-28 w/ Dual Exhaust?
    Yes, it will Craig! I checked with Curt and their item # C11117 will fit a 2001 Z-28 with dual exhaust. We had a customer install this hitch on one and I have attached a couple pictures below that he sent in. The only modification required is a couple of holes drilled into the frame rails. I have linked the installation instructions below so you can see this step. If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # C59236 and a ball mount kit item # e47DR.

  • Can I Tow Over 2,000 lbs w/ a 2011 Ford Focus?
    No, and neither is your Focus. I'm not sure which model your 2011 Ford Focus is but none of them have a towing capacity over 2,000 lbs unless yours has a diesel engine. The Curt Hitch item # C11319 is a class I hitch which means it tops out at 2,000 lbs. The only other hitch available is the Draw-Tite item # 24805 but it's got the same specs. Since you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # 56014 and a ball mount kit item # e47DR. If you have any additional...

  • How to Haul a 180LB Mobility Scooter With a 2007 Honda Accord Sedan
    The only way you will be able to safely haul your 180lb mobility scooter is by putting it on Trailer # K2MMT4X6. The Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24787 maxes out at 200lbs of tongue weight which your scooter and the 53lb carrier exceeds. Also the 1-1/4" to 2" Adapter # HTAD does reduce the receiver capacity by 50% so with the adapter you can only safely have 100lbs total for a hitch mounted accessory and the rack. If you choose the trailer option you will also need a 4-Way # 118302...

  • Recommended Ball Mount for a 2011 Toyota Prius
    Hey Michael thanks for the question. We do indeed carry ball mounts and bike racks that will work with your 2011 Toyota Prius. It sounds like you already have a hitch but what I am going to need you to do is measure the square receiver you referenced. It will either be 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" or 2" x 2". This measurement will determine what size ball mount and bike rack you will need. I have listed both options below; 1-1/4" Receiver - etrailer Ball Mount w/ Pre-Torqued 2" Ball item # e47DR 2"...

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2024 Chevrolet Trailblazer
    I sure can Maria. I've got all the parts you need but let me start out by recommending a different hitch and telling you why I think you don't want the Curt item # C94UR for your Trailblazer. The Curt item # C94UR is a 1-1/4" hitch. That means you're going to be extremely limited on what options you have for accessories like bike racks and cargo carriers. 1-1/4" accessories have lower capacities and are often time more expensive because there are less options. While you'll save money today,...

    Hey Bernard, yes the Curt hitch part # C84ZV is correct for your 2024 Subaru WRX and would be a great option for a small trailer. Then for trailer wiring the Curt # C56ZV is the correct fit and the ball mount part # e47DR would be a great option as well.

  • Will The Draw-Tite Hitch DT68GR For 2021 Acura TLX Be Able To Tow A Jet Ski?
    Hello Henry, thanks for getting in touch. The Draw-Tite Class 1 Hitch # DT68GR for the 2021 Acura TLX has a towing capacity of 2,000 lbs. Most jet skis weigh like 300-900 lbs max so the hitch can easily tow a small trailer and a jet ski. As long as the combined weight of the trailer and the jet ski is less than 2,000 lbs you will be good to go. Since you plan to tow a trailer you will also need the Curt T-Connector # C45RV. Also get the etrailer Ball Mount # e47DR if you don't have one...
