MaxxTow Adjustable-Height Ball Mount - 2" Hitch - 10" Drop, 8" Rise - 5,000 lbs

by: Dave G.06/14/2018

I was very pleased to have found this product at etrailer. I couldn't find one that had this much versatility in my home town. I have a Ram 4x4 truck that sits higher up than a normal truck, and this is exactly what I was looking for. I needed more drop and this one is perfect for my needs. Also, thanks to etrailer for expediting the shipping at no extra cost to me. I now will be able to use this hitch for a variety of trailers without having to switch receivers constantly! Well made and less expensive than ordering from hometown stores. 521631

This has been a really good hitch. Easy to use, strong, and very versatile. My Colorado p/u is factory lowered and a standard hitch configuration is so low that launching my boat is nearly impossible. (The tongue is low, making the stern of the boat high. So, the back of the boat doesn't get deep enough into the water.) Pulling the boat off of the bunks is nearly impossible. By raising the ball height, the rear of the trailer rotates downward, getting the stern of the boat more into the water. Even at shallow launch ramps, the boat can float itself from the trailer, and I don't have to pull it off of the bunks. For road trailering, I can lower the ball height to lower the trailer tongue and get a proper weight distribution. This hitch has really worked well for me. If you launch a boat, or recover mobile equipment onto a trailer, being able to securely lower the back of the trailer has a lot of advantages. 441588

e-trailer comes through again! Good price, fast shipping and a EZ to use drop nice finish good fit 115277

Works well, I dont use it for very heavy loads but I like that not having to carry extra mounts for my different trailers.e-trailer is the best!! Had a blowout, needed a tire could not find one in any store, we were passing the area on a Sunday no less I was met at the side door with a tire.

Excellent fit on my Jeep with three and a half inch lift and 37" tires. I flip it over for storage and no drag when off-roading - doesn't hit the ground on steep dips, etc. I can now tow a trailer with my lifted Jeep and still keep the hitch on the vehicle when not in use. 114817

Proven to be an excellent investment! Very pleased with the unit.

Etrailer website works great! They contact you within minutes to get the product on its way. Customer service is top notch as well. Had my ball mount within three days of placing the order! Excellent quality, just what I needed to tow with my Jeep with 3.5 lift. Will recommend to friends . Thank you 178212

There are two aspects of buying products; first, the service from the seller, and second the product itself. My first order was shipped promptly, but the box arrived damaged and taped up, with the platform piece missing. I responded to an email and called them the following day and without batting an eye they immediately shipped the replacement part which arrived a few days later. Super impressed by the customer service there. The hitch itself is absolutely perfect for my needs and very well constructed. I like that it can be inserted into the receiver up or down to give a wide range of possible towing heights. This was my first purchase here on etrailer.com, and I will be back! 525384

I searched long & hard for an adjustable trailer hitch for our Jayco pop-up. Finally found the MaxxTow & etrailer.com had the best price anywhere online. George at etrailer emailed me & put a rush on the order--unsolicited by me--which allowed us to take our vacation on schedule. We also used the hitch for the cheerleaders' float in our hometown parade; the Dad pulling the float had a new truck that was WAY too high for the trailer. The MaxxTow was perfect for this application as well. I'll definitely shop etrailer FIRST anytime I'm looking for trailer or RV products in the future. Thanks George & etrailer! 401560

I had just purchased a new trailer, and knew immediately that the tongue weight was incorrect. The e-trailer site had all the information I needed to measure the drop for my new trailer. Mine came in at 8 and three quarters. So, I opted for the 10 inch drop 5K GTW vs the 9 inch drop 6K GTW for half the price. The product that came was exactly as described and pictured. The weld joints were all clean and smooth and painted. This would be my second purchase from a trailer, and I'm quite pleased with all the selections offered and the quality of the products received. 256934

Product was just as it appeared on your website. At first, I ordered a similar product which turned out to be discontinued. Stacey A called, explained the situation, and helped me select a suitable replacement product and complete the reorder. The product was tracked and delivery was announced via email. The product was delivered in the time frame estimated and was in perfect condition. Stacey A sent a follow-up email checking to make sure all was satisfactory. This was my second purchase from etrailers and both have been great experiences. Thanks. 464155

Excellent service from etrailer. This product seems very sturdy. One should always adhere to load limitations.Given the rating of 500 lbs hitch and 5000 lbs. Gross tow, I have no doubt the product will deliver. When purchasing a hitch or drawbar.....the user should be aware that anything CAN be broken with enough force applied. That 5000 lbs limit should be given proper attention. Most trailers with 2 axles could overload this drawbar. Most full size pickups weigh more than 5000 lbs. A mid-sized sedan or crossover gets very close. 177650

This is the third time I've ordered from etrailer in about a month. Everything I got has been exactly what they said it would be and functioned as it should. Very good packaging and detailed instructions. Very good, fast and friendly service. Was notified by email when order was placed, when it shipped and a follow up after each order arrived to see if I was satisfied. P.S. I like the etrailer.com boxes. My neighbors don"t think they are adult diapers when they see them on my porch lol. Thanks again for the great service. Jim 394170

I have not installed the adjustable ball mount yet. It appears to be of good quality will do the job, which is an odd step up installation. The videos on the website made the selection process simple and gave me the confidence to order it without going to a trailer supply store and deal with the a salesman and finding they probably do not have this item anyway. The ordering was easy and the follow up by etrailer has been great. I have ordered in the past and continue to look forward to the next time I need something. 111896

This product is cleverly designed - it provides adjustments from 8" above to 10" below the ball of your hitch. I intend to use it to lower the hitch on my motorhome so that I can tow a tow dolly that runs optimum at 16" while my hitch is 24" above. My only concern is that the extension will be driven into the pavement and ruined when the motorhome goes through a dip at driveways etc. The product appears to be very well built although it is rated at only 5000 lbs. It looks to be built at least at 10,000 lbs level. 282843

This hitch is is very rugged and has a very wide range of vertical adjustment. Just what I needed. 389973

The hitch works great with my high truck. I'm a little uncertain about the tounge rate rating. The hitch is rated to 5,000 pounds, which is more than enough but the tounge weight is only 500 lbs. if I'd researched this I might have bought a different hitch. My load will be around 4,300, 2 horse trailer loaded. I guess it depends on which formula I use to calculate tongue weight, but if I go with 15%, I'm overloaded; 10% I'm okay. It seems tongue rating should match the hitch rating. 231921

I ordered a trailer hitch, wiring harness and MaxxTow ball mount for my 2015 Ford Explorer. After viewing the rectangular wiring harness plug on my vehicle, I immediately called customer service who substituted the flat wiring harness plug for the round one ordered. The customer service associate substituted the correct wiring harness despite costing about $4.00 more. Excellent customer service and I received all parts ordered one day earlier than promised. 407554

I needed this for my 2016 Kia Sorento, as the hitch is set pretty low to the ground. The product arrived very quickly and is in perfect condition (no gouges in the paint or other issues). Very satisfied with etrailer as always. 367237

I ordered this hitch to accommodate my smaller truck (Chevy S10 Crew Cab) for the Utility Trailer I finished building which now has leaf springs underneath for better ride/suspension & height. I ordered this hitch and added the 3 day shipping, AND, it arrived in 2 days! I am very pleased with this hitch that's matched with a 2" Ball, It works perfect for my truck/trailer and the adjustment options are perfect for what I need! 208975

by: Michael06/07/2018

This is a great site to purchase what you need. We got our hitch in 4 days and they kept us updated as well about the product. Saying they were going to send it out early. How great is that? I thought it was going to take 4 weeks. Thank you etrailer. Price was excellent. A lot cheaper than any other place. Now I can put my boat in the water myself. Don’t have to have someone go it for me thank you thank you thank you. 518936

Operates as advertised and expected. Also an excellent value. This saved me from going to a more expensive mount or needing special fabrication labor. Note: This is run this upside down on my 2002 LS Xtracab 4.3L with ZQ8 suspension. The mount does drag on my driveway and some intersections but not by much. I will adjust my height up a little for towing and would use this mount again for this application. 188547

everything looks good. i sure needed the 10 inch drop. will use it this week end. the way etrailer handled this was great. even down to the map of tracking the shipping. the order was only in house for about 30 minutes and i received a e-mail that it was ready to ship. that afternoon another e-mail that it had shipped. Very efficient. got it the day they said it would be here. 97321

I just need to pull a small trailer with motorcycle so didn't need a super heavy duty hitch. My biggest issue was the drop and the receiver on the motorhome sets very high. This unit should give me sufficient drop for the trailer to be level. Looks very high quality, certainly is heavy (about 30 lbs). Price was about 1/3 of some other hitches that offered this much drop (or raise if needed). 437783

by: Stan H.04/12/2017

etrailer's website has a wealth of information and product offerings. I called to get information on hitch configurations matching my particular motorhome year and model. eTrailer's Rep, Sal got the information quickly, so I ordered the items over the phone and the items arrive to my residence in very short order. I highly recommend eTrailer for your hitch and towing solutions. Stan H. 366176

by: Joe01/08/2015

Received product when expected and in great condition. Have not used the ball mount yet, but have no worries based on its heft and construction it will fit great. After changing tow vehicles my old ball mount did not have enough drop so I researched another fixed ball mount with a drop but ultimately decided on the adjustable mount to ensure I had future flexibility with whatever car I have. 168140

by: Joy07/26/2016

I ordered this to tow a vintage pop up that I had just purchased. The hitch was great because the pop up tongue and the receiver were different heights. Well fast forward a few months and my tow vehicle was totaled and get a different car. Since this is so adjustable it worked perfectly for my new tow vehicle! It is very durable and the pins stay in no matter how bumpy the road. 276398

I am still very pleased with the hitch that I bought!

E-Trailer, I am happy with the equipment I received. I must admit I am somewhat disappointed the I did not receive the two hitch pins that are in the photo. The tow hitch (photo) does not show the ball assembly, in which I had no problem ordering. However, the photo does show the two hitch pins, that was not included in the tow hitch assembly. 218419

by: Eric11/09/2015

The only thing keeping this from an Excellent is there wasn't a third cotter pin to attach to the car. Wish there was a note somewhere so I could have ordered at the same time. Now I have to roll over to Wally World to purchase...other than that it is a solid piece of equipment and was delivered right on time. The price was also the best I found anywhere! 231643

by: Bruce01/27/2018

My 2017 Tahoe was way high when hooked up to my small boat and lawn trailers. The 6" drop hitches at the auto suppy stores were not enough. I found etrailer.com and the problem was solved with an adjustable 10" drop-8' rise ball mount. The company was a pleasure to do business with... and more than the hitch... that is the purpose of this review. 470566

by: moviegirl8806/09/2017

Very nice well-made heavy duty Ball Mount. We purchased this for an RV so we could pull a dolly with a car. It is really heavy duty. My husband was impressed with the quality and I was impressed with the rapid shipping and customer service. We have ordered from this company before and highly recommend them to everyone. 391156

by: Paul01/27/2018

Everything I expected it would be from pictures on website. When the hitch arrived UPS, the box was badly damaged from handling. Thankfully, all parts made it. The overall thickness of the hitch could be thicker. All I'm hauling is a boat/trailer, and a landscape trailer. Heavier applications may desire a more HD hitch. 470433

Delivery was exceptionally F A S T -- ordered on a Monday, received on the following Wednesday via standard shipping option. The product is solid quality and exactly as described on line. The videos helped sell the ball mount as it explained how it adjusted to different rises. Excellent service, excellent product. 92740

by: Charlie M.11/23/2016

This hitch was sent to me very quickly. It arrived two days sooner then I was promised, great service. But more important to me was I had just ordered an almost identical hitch from another source for half the price of this one and it was not near the quality as this one. I guess you "get what you pay for". 319220

I received the hitch way ahead of time...that is excellent in my book. I haven't used the hitch yet, but being an ex-Millwright/Machinist I can see that it was made correctly and is very sturdy with a safety factor built in....very well made. I am happy. Plan to use the hitch in about a month. 116906

I recently purchased a new Tahoe 4x4 with a hitch receiver much higher than my old vehicle, so I needed a way to lower the ball mount. I ordered this item and it worked perfectly for my motorcycle trailer. I recently towed it with this item for over 500 miles round trip with not issues. 228679

Product was delivered on the day it was promised. The description matched the product, told me exactly what I needed to know so what I received is exactly what I needed. This is my third order from etrailer and I've never had any issues with delivery or the products I've received. 488897

by: John E.07/10/2015

This product was exactly what I was looking for. It provides all the drop and all the rise that one could ever need. The 10 inch drop is especially good when you have a 4X4 that sits up higher in the back and you are having to pull a smaller or lower height trailer. Great Product! 210939

by: Bill F.02/23/2015

I have a few different trailers and two different tow vehicles. I used to have different draw bars for each circumstance. Now with this, I only need to have one. I've used it three times and changed the height three times and it works great. Well worth the money. 175610

Looks strong but I have a bit of a biased opinion on the quality of the weld as I am a welder myself I know their strong but their not the prittiest. But aside from that. I'm very satisfied. It came at sooner than I expected and iv already put it to use. 163124

Very good and was able to fold it for storage without too much extra work. A real useful piece of equipment, especially when storage space is very liited.
