Specs:
Towing trailers with different coupler sizes just got easier thanks to the 180 Hitch 2-ball mount. This ball mount features a 2" and 2-5/16" hitch ball on opposite ends of the ball mount platform. Switching to the opposite ball is fast and easy - simply flip over the platform, hitch-up, and go! Because both balls are contained on the platform, you won't have to keep track of separate balls that must be completely removed and installed each time you need to switch trailers.
Adjusting and setting up the 180 Hitch 2-ball mount to work with your specific trailer is easy. To switch hitch balls, unlock and pull out the dual pins and remove the platform from the shank. Next, flip the platform 180 degrees so that either the 2" or 2-5/16" hitch ball is on top. Then replace the platform and slide it along the shank to the desired height. Insert the dual pins and use one of the included keys to lock the pins in place. A dual-sided hitch ball with a 1-7/8" and a 2" hitch ball (TB03 - sold separately) is also available.
The 180 Hitch 2-ball mount can be used in either the drop or rise position to best suit your application.
Superior Aluminum and Stainless Steel Construction
From the first moment that you lay eyes on the 180 Hitch you'll see that you're getting a superior, well-made product. The 180 Hitch's shank and ball mount platform are made entirely of 6061 T6 billet aluminum, which is the same material that is used to build aircraft components, automobile frames, and freight liners. This type of aluminum is known for having superior strength while maintaining its light weight, which makes it highly desirable over hollow steel components. 6061 T6 aluminum is also rustproof, which means the 180 Hitch will maintain its clean, shiny, and impressive appearance for years to come. And the hitch balls are made of solid stainless steel, offering far greater protection against rust and corrosion than other steel hitch balls that are only painted or plated on the surface.
The 180 Hitch meets VESC V-5 regulations and is SAE J684 certified. These regulatory bodies - the Vehicle Equipment Safety Commission and the Society for Automotive Engineers - create standards for the design, construction, and performance of automotive and towing accessories. Weigh Safe has had this ball mount thoroughly tested in simulation to ensure that it complies with these standards. The result is a strong, safe, sturdy product that is built to last.

Speaker 1: Today we're taking a look at the 180 hitch, two ball mount. This ball mount, with the included hitch balls, lets you hook up your trailer to your tow vehicle. The shank portion slides into the hitch on your vehicle. Then the hitch balls provide the connection point for your trailer's coupler. This does feature an adjustable height design, so that's going to let you tow trailers of different heights with the same vehicle, and the same ball mount. All you have to do is take off this cap right here, this is just a rubber cover that protects the lock core, comes with this dual pin assembly, so you take one of the keys, place it in there, and that'll allow you to slide that out of the way.
And then now, you can slide this up and down, the adjustable portion of your mount.So that's a really nice design. You can slide the ball mount platform up or down the shank. And then once you have the setting you need, then you can secure it back in place by reinstalling the dual pin assembly. Now this does feature two differently sized hitch balls. So it's going to let you tow trailers with different coupler sizes as well.
To switch between the balls, you remove the pins, take the platform all the way off. Rotate it over, reinstall it. And then again, once you have it set where you need it, you reinstall the dual pin assembly.Now, the hitch balls on the unit, are stainless steel. They're very strong, very durable, and completely corrosion resistant. So they perform a lot better when it comes to lasting longer than those chrome balls.
The chrome balls get the finishing wore off, and then they rust. With these, they're stainless steel, from the outermost point, to the innermost point, so you're not going to have to worry about any type of corrosion, or anything effecting the look of the performance of the hitch balls.Then it does come with that rubber cover, that slides over the locking mechanism, keeps dirt and moisture out of that lock core. The locking dual pin assembly is included. It's not an upgrade. They through it in there.
The locking dual pins secure the ball mount platform to the shank for added security. We're looking at plated steel lock, with aluminum pins, and housing to resist rust and corrosion. It'll last a long time. Again, we got the rubber cover that protects the lock core from dust, debris, and moisture. And it comes with your keys.Now the rest of the mount, everything besides basically the hitch balls, is a 6061T6 billet aluminum. Provides superior strength and durability. We're looking at a solid block construction, which provides greater strength than all the steel competitors, while also maintaining a lightweight mount. And it's completely rust proof, so this thing's going to last you a long time. And it's going to remain clean. It's easy to clean, and you're going to have a good looking mount for a really, really long time.Now you will need to pick up a hitch pin and clip, or a hitch lock to secure this inside the receiver tube of your hitch. Those items are sold separately and available at etrailer.com. The pin holes on this unit will accept the standard 5/8 inch diameter pin. Two pin holes on it, so you can choose what ever one works best for your application. This is designed to slide into a two inch by two inch trailer hitch receiver. We have a gross towing weight capacity, when using the 2-5/16 ball of 10,000 pounds, and 8,000 pounds when using the two inch ball.Maximum tongue weight for the unit is 1,500 pounds. The distance that we have. I took measurements from the center of this pin hole right here, to the center of the hitch balls. It's about 8-1/2 inches. From the center of this one, to the center of the hitch balls is about 9-5/8 to 9-3/4 inches. If you're using it in the drop position, which will be this position here, and if you have the platform at the lowest setting, it's going to give you a maximum drop of four inches, from the inside top edge of the receiver tube of your hitch, down to the top of the ball platform.If you have it in the rise position, with the mount at its highest setting, doing those same measurements, it's going to give you a maximum rise of five inches. So maximum drop of four, maximum rise of five. And then you do have an incremental height adjustment of one inch. That's the measurement we have from the center of one adjustment hole to the center of the other. The product is made in the USA, and covered with a limited lifetime warranty.That's going to do it for today's look at the 180 hitch, two ball mount.

While I have not actually towed with the ball mount yet it is a high quality piece of equipment. The machining work is excellent as all the pieces fit together perfect. It feels more substantial than I anticipated. Like I said I have not towed with it yet as my tow vehicle is new and not broken in yet but I have no doubt that this ball mount will suit my needs and then some. 570938

I've been a tool maker for 30+ years and I can say that the machine work and finish are pretty good for a ball mount. My only concern is the aluminum pin that will be holding all the tongue weight. I would have liked for it to be stainless steel, but overall a solid drop hitch ball mount. 581124

Review from a similar Weigh Safe 180 Hitch in Ball Mounts
The Receiver is a bit heavy, but other than that its everything I was looking for. I had multiple receivers for 2 vehicles. A ford expedition and a Toyota Venza. The venza needs lift and the expedition needs drops. This one hitch does it all for me. 200 was a lot but it is the last hitch I will ever buy. The aluminum receiver will hold up better than the powder coated ones I had and will not freeze to the hitch. Stainless steel ball will never rust. The instructions say to not leave it in when not towing is good advice because you forget about the other ball. Pricey but you get what you pay for. 572790

Review from a similar Weigh Safe 180 Hitch in Ball Mounts
The hitch it self is great, I bought the different size reversible ball for other trailor that I owned. After couple of tows with boat, I tried to pull the center in lift the sliding ball out to put smaller ball in and could not ball in out. The center pin has a threaded bolt hole to help by putting in bolt to pull pin out. That didn't do it either. I'm assuming that the aluminum hitch has a grove in the pun holding it? 503322

Review from a similar Weigh Safe 180 Hitch in Ball Mounts
The 180 Hitch 2-ball mount has been has been very useful with my two trailers that have different ball sizes and ride heights. Turns out that the 8" drop was too much for one of my trucks and would drag when going through a dip but I was able to purchase a second, shorter stinger/drop bar from the manufacturer so now I can leave one on each truck and just move the ball mount back and forth. The only drawback I have experienced is that there is a fair amount of play with the mount stingers in my truck receivers and this results in a lot of noise on rough roads. I have had to result to using anti-rattle clamps to reduce the noise although there is still some from the ball mount but I suppose that is typical of most adjustable ball mounts. 470391

Review from a similar Weigh Safe 180 Hitch in Ball Mounts
While traveling through Florida I purchased a new ultra lite camping travel trailer to tow behind my Mercedes Sprinter. The trailer was equipped with an "extreme" package that included a lift kit to increase ground clearance. Needed a ball mount with flexibility to achieve the extra required rise for tongue. A little research left little doubt the tb4-2 was the best value for quality and price. It is a beautifully crafted piece. You will not be disappointed. Etrailer has an excellent web site to navigate and a email question was promptly answered. Shipment was quick with excellent tracking. A great purchase. Very happy. 357619
Great. Many compliments and recommendations to remove so not stolen. Nice product.

Great product! Excellent machine work, I'm a machinist i would know. I pulled a new 28 foot box trailer home on a 10 hour drive and had no issues. The box trailer I bought has torsion axles so it must ride level to even the weight over both axles and it was very easy to adjust the level with this hitch so it rode home perfect! Etrailer had quick shipping and even checked back to see if I was satisfied. Will definitely buy from them again! Great experience! 334077

Review from a similar Weigh Safe 180 Hitch in Ball Mounts
Great quality and finish on all the parts. I didn't quite understand the scale of this hitch when I ordered it, particularly the sliding component that holds the balls. It is a bit larger than I expected, but I guess my expectations are mostly based on steel equivalents. It rattles a little more than other hitches that I have had. I'm not sure if that's because this one has more pinned connections, or a larger drop, or both. Overall, I really like it, the convenience of no tools adjustment vastly outweighs the rattling. 331056
I love this hitch, its nice knowing ok covered whether I pull my own trailers or rentals. I do have to watch for curbs when its adjusted low on my 2013 suburban. I bought this one because I needed a 9 inch for one of my utility trailers.

Very solid and beautifully finished. Fits well on my 2016 Ram 2500 4x4, with the newer 2-1/2" receiver, allowing the exact height necessary to level my toy hauler. Ball mount is packaged in foam to ensure it is pristine when it arrives. Got the locking dual pin for it, as well as the BOLT locks for hitch and coupler, so none of this pretty stuff walks away. Very happy with the whole setup. A little mixup on the initial order was corrected immediately, so I had all the parts I needed in time to hit the road. Thanks etrailer team! 312103
Still looks and works great! I added air bags to the rear suspension of the truck, which raised it up a bit with the trailer connected. Simply moved the ball mount down and the trailer is level again. Perfect!
