• Extra Long Ball Mount to Allow Installation of Towtector Debris Guard on F-350
  It sounds like you are looking for a longer ball mount to use in your hitch to allow installation of the Towtector debris guard. I have linked you to our page for extra long 2-inch 10K ball mounts. For a 2-inch size we offer the Brophy # BH20 which measures 13-1/4-inches from the center of hitch pin hole to the center of the ball hole and either 3/4-inch rise or 2-inch drop. There are longer ball mounts but they do not have the 10K rating you need.

• How to Choose the Correct Ball Mount and Hitch Ball for a 1999 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4
  Before purchasing a ball mount and a hitch ball you should measure the height of your trailer hitch and compare that to the height of your coupler. I have attached an article that shows how to measure your hitch height and coupler height to find the correct rise or drop you need in a ball mount. Once you have determined the rise or drop that you need, you will want to choose a ball mount with the correct rise or drop that is rated for the weight of your trailer.

• Recommended Ball Mount With 5-1/2 Inch Rise For 2-Inch Hitch
  We do not have any fixed ball mounts with a 5-1/2 inch rise specifically but we do have them with a 5-inch or 6-inch rise like part # 40332 and part # C24WR. You may want to consider an adjustable mount that gives you some flexibility. The ball mount I recommend is the Convert-a-Ball Adjustable-Height Ball Mount, part # TK5007. This is adjustable up to a 10-inch drop or an 9-inch rise. If you need a 2-inch hitch ball I recommend part # 63845. For a 1-7/8 inch ball I recommend part # C40051.

The second measurement, from the upturn to the top of the shank, is 7 inches. See the image showing the dimensions which I have attached for you.

• Super Extra Long Ball Mount Recommendation for a 2012 Toyota RAV4
  I believe the correct ball mount for you to use would be the Brophy Ball Mount # BM20. This ball mount has a distance of 13-1/4 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole out to the nearest part of the ball mount platform, and since the hitch on your 2012 Toyota RAV4 has a distance of 9.5 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the furthest point of the bumper I believe this ball mount would work well for you. This ball mount also has a rise of 2-3/4 inches, and if you get a...

• Ball Mount with 5-1/4 Inch Rise and 1 Inch Diameter Ball Hole for a 2 Inch Trailer Hitch
  Rise or drop doesn't have to be exact. If you can get it within 1 inch you will be just fine. We have # C24WR which has a 5 inch rise and has a 1 inch diameter ball hole. Or another option is to use # C45336 with bushing # F-2. The bushing acts as a spacer allowing you to use a 1 inch diameter ball shank in a 1-1/4 inch ball hole.

  Ball mounts are typically ed based on the trailer height and vehicle hitch height. With a 4 inch lift on your truck you will certainly need a ball mount with a significant to it. I imagine you will need a 6 or 8 inch like part # 40332 for 6 inches, or part # 4283 for 8 inch. To find out exactly which size you need to keep your trailer level, you will need to take measurements of your trailer height and hitch height.

• Using a 4 Bike Thule Rack on a 2014 Nissan Pathfinder Towing a Pop Up Camper
  You've got a couple options for your 2012 Rockwood Freedom 2280 pop up camper to carry your bikes. One of your most straightforward solutions would be to add a roof rack to the top of the camper itself. Based on my research, it looks like you will likely have a beveled, fiberglass one piece top on your Rockwood Freedom, so you can use the Swagman Ladder Rack, part # S80510 as a permanent installation on the camper's roof. This will create a 150 pound capacity square bar roof rack on...

• Recommend Ball Mount To Clear Rear Bumper of 2008 Toyota Sienna
  We do have a ball mount that should work well for your towing setup, but, the item you referenced, Forged Ball Mount, part # 40332, will not provide the 7 inches of clearance from the pin hole to the edge of the bumper. The item you selected, Titan Ball Mount, part # 45291, cannot be used in the rise position, so it will not work for your towing setup either. A good solution to provide rise to keep your trailer fairly level when towing and to clear your rear bumper would be the Curt...

• Weight Distribution and Adjustable Ball Mount with 5 Inches of Drop for a 2011 Dodge Ram 2500
  There are plenty of weight distribution shanks that have the drop you will need. I have included a link to the main page for you. If you already have a weight distribution system then I would need to know the brand you have to determine which shank would work best. Or for a weight distribution system you could use # RP66542 and then use shank # RP63971 that has a max drop of 6-1/2 inches. This system is rated for 600 to 1,200 pounds tongue weight the the trailer is loaded and ready to...

• Ball Mount for Towing Rental Trailer with 2022 Honda Odyssey
  U-Haul rental trailers typically have a coupler height of 18 inches. When we installed the etrailer # e98855 on a 2022 Honda Odyssey, we found the receiver height to be 13 inches. This would be a height difference of 5 inches. The Draw-Tite # 40332 ball mount offers a 5 inch rise, so it would be a pretty good choice for you. However, I'd go with the Curt # C45336 instead. It's a little less expensive and has plenty of capacity for your needs. For a 2 inch trailer ball, you'd use # A-90....

• Will the Curt Ball Mount 40332 Clear the Bumper on a 2019 CX-9?
  The Draw-Tite # 76020 that you have on your 2019 Mazda CX-9 will have the pin hole recessed 6 inches from the closest edge of the bumper. With the Draw-Tite Ball Mount # 40332 being 10-1/4 inches from the center of hitch pin hole to the center of ball hole, there should be no issues using these together. If you do not have a 2 inch ball for this, I suggest going with the Curt # A-90. This is rated up to 10,000 pounds and has the needed 1 1/4 inch shank to fit the # 40332. The Curt Pin...

• Ball Mount and Weight Distribution Recommendation for 8500 lb Travel Trailer
  The hollow shank ball mounts typically carry a lower weight rating than what you are looking for. You do not mention what kind of rise/drop you are needing, but for a 12,000 pound rating I would recommend a forged ball mount. Part # BWBMHD30010 offers a 1 inch rise or 2 inch drop, part # 40331 has a 3 inch rise or 4 inch drop, and part # 40332 features a 5 inch rise or a 6 inch drop. Anytime the loaded trailer weighs 50 percent or more than the weight of the vehicle, weight distribution...

• Availability of a Forged Ball Mount with a 6 inch Rise
  Out of the ball mounts we carry that the manufacturers have labeled as being forged, the closest one to a 6 inch rise is going to be # 40332, that you have referenced. To get that additional inch, you could use a ball with a 1 inch rise like # C40035. This is a 2-5/16 inch diameter ball with a 1 inch rise and 10,000 pound capacity.
