Most Popular Steel Ball for Ram 3500

I purchased this hitch for my 2024 GMC Sierra 3500 which has the multiple tailgate. The hitch was in the stow position but still damaged my tailgate when I had the tailgate fully down and used the step feature. it bent the metal and scratched the paint. So please be aware this hitch is not recommended for the 2024 GMC sierra 3500 with multiple tailgate.

About a year ago, I bought a new to me truck that needed a 2.5" hitch. I love this 3 in 1 setup. I really like that it stows and I can always have it back there. I haven't used the 1 7/8" yet, but there are plenty of old trailers out there that would need it at some point. I have used the 2" & 2 5/16" plenty. It's sturdy, looks good, and is super convenient, what's not to like about it.

The product was well described on the web site. The truck matching worked great and was easy to use. This hitch was very easy to order and the price was good. The delivery date was correct, it was easy to follow with the information provided. The hitch was as advertised, easy to install and easy to use. Great Job!

I have been completely satisfied with this product. Very durable, solid beyond my expectations. Whether towing 1/2 ton or 6 tons I have no concerns that the trailer and load aren't safe and secure. Would purchase again but won't need to as this hitch was built to last.

Looks amazing, came as advertised with quick shipping. Super easy to adjust for different balls and heights. No more swapping out receivers when I go from 2" to 2-5/8 tongues. Would have gotten 5 stars if a hitch pin was included, especailly at this price point. Interested to see how it holds up over time.

It’s been a good hitch so far. I have no complaints. The 2.5 inch Rock Tamer mount just fits on my 2022 Superdutys factory receiver. I was real happy about that.

Used. Worked great. I bit sloppy and noisy but no issue with function. Easy to swap ball sizes. Worth the money. Would buy again

Love my new hitch and the adjustability. Much lighter than my previous hitch

Went with the B&W due to the length of the shaft going into the receiver. My 2024 Ram's receiver is recessed under the bumper. This hitch is long enough to accept my Towtector product. Similar to Rock Tamers. Also, Brittany in customer service was awesome to work with as she guided me towards the product that worked for my application.

Great quality hitch for my new 2022 2500HD LTZ. Quick and efficient shipping. Looks great on my truck. Works very good for all my trailers.

Still haven't towed anything with it yet but it seems very solid. I do think it will rattle some in the receiver because it is loose in my 2" receiver on my 2019 F150.

This hitch has worked out great for me over the last year. It’s very heavy duty and easy to adjust. I’ve hauled a 9,000 lb boat, long-distance on numerous occasions without issue. I also haul a landscape trailer on a daily basis weighing over 5,000lbs and haven’t had a single issue. Great hitch that was significantly cheaper than others and is very high quality. I’ve recommended it to several people and I wouldn’t hesitate to buy again. The only thing I would like to have now in a hitch is a tongue weight gauge, but it isn’t necessary.

Very happy with the hitch. Looked FOREVER all over for details when I got my new to me 2017 Ram 2500. This truck sits so dang high off the ground (4x4) I was worried about getting the proper range of drop for my different trailers. I used my 7x14 utility trailer as my baseline as it rides the lowest. From ground to bottom of my ball coupler is approx 16in. From ground to top of my hitch receiver is approx 25in. On the lowest setting my trailer sits ever so slightly nose totally empty. Check the pic with level. Once loaded I'm confident it will ride very nice. Plus I have all the range to move up for my taller trailers. Super beefy, seems well built, and I picked up the locking pins to go with. Etrailer as always had a great price and I've been ordering from them for years.

I have a 2018 Ram 2500 and was in the market for a hitch. So as usual I go and check out etrailer. I was initially wanting a 8 inch drop but couldn’t find a style I liked. I personally didn’t want aluminum nothing against them just wanted steel. Finding information sometimes can be difficult so this is my main reason for review. As for etrailer I ordered this on a Tuesday afternoon and was at my house by noon on Wednesday. I was expecting Friday possibly Monday for delivery. This hitch is heavy. Fits in receiver good also stays close to bumper for better handling of to tongue weight and also to save your shin pretty sure you run into this thing you won’t forget it. I haven’t towed with this hitch yet but very confident it will be no problem. I have included some photos to help. This truck is all stock. The only negative if there is one is with the hitch in receiver and you hit a decent bump it does let you know it is in receiver.

I use this everyday, and I love it. It still looks like new, the key locks and slides still work like they did when they were new. I would 100% buy another one.

Great hitch at a great price. Shipping was fast. Ordered online and it was a breeze. The picture of the hitch showed it had a sleeve but when it came there was no sleeve. Which was nice fits great in my 21/2 receiver.

Very well made and easy to use. Haven't towed with it yet, but looks like it will do the job.

Very nice! It's a little pricey, but it's the best looking hitch money can buy. It's like the fine jewelry of truck accessories. Everybody who sees it really likes it. Even my daughter said "WOW! That's nice!" She's not real big on trailer accessories.

Bought to pull my boat with my Yukon and needed a drop hitch to level out the trailer. I wanted to buy a quality hitch, and let me tell you the B&W does not disappoint. Well engineered. It’s it heavy but when installed it is pretty easy to adjust height and ball size. Also supporting an American company is a plus!

It has been a great hitch I've had no problems whatsoever and I love the fact that it's so easy to change between the three ball sizes I would absolutely order this hitch again you can't go wrong with B&W

Was shipped on time.B&W hitch was fine just missing one pin clip.Box had several holes where pin clip could have fallen out. Looks like it had a rough trip.

It is exactly what I expected, fast delivery, extremely fine product. I also have a turnover ball from you that is also a B&W product. Thank You, Bob

Super beefy and very well made. Packed well too. Some careful thought and enginnering went into this piece and you can tell. Im old enough to remember being able to buy high quality, locally made stuff for a reasonable price. Seems like those days are mostly gone. It was fun to inbox this hitch and appreciative the solid craftsmanship. Doesn’t happen too much anymore.

Great product arrived on time , item was very well packaged. I buy from etrailer because of the excellent customer service. Fits my ram dually very well. Looks good too

The chrome trailer hitch I ordered initially seemed promising, but Even with diligent care, including not leaving it on when not in use and avoiding exposure to winter weather, the chrome trailer hitch still succumbed to rust. This unexpected deterioration highlights a significant flaw in its durability, leaving me disappointed in its overall performance.

I recently purchased a B&W a 7" Drop, Trip Ball Hitch from the factory. I ordered a 3" Reese instead of a 2 1/2" that I needed. Noah and Tammi in Customer Service jumped right on the issue and got me the correct hitch and a quick return/credit for the other one. Couldn't be more happy with the company and the hitch. B&W makes a bullet proof hitch and I will always recommend them. Thank you for all the help, David.

I wish I would have bought one of these years ago. It would have saved me from buying 4 different height hitch receivers. I have a boat trailer that requires me to mount this hitch upside down to get about 2.5in of rise. On the flip side is my utility trailer that requires a 2 inch drop. The kicker is that when I load the truck down with gear and people or load the utility trailer up really heavy, this hitch allows me to kick the ball up or down a notch to keep the trailer level. Also if you ever rent heavy equipment most of the trailers they use will have 2 5/16 ball, so I just flip the ball and I'm in business. Build quality and finish is excellent. I don't keep the mount on all year long but with some judicious use of grease this thing hasn't shown any rust over the past year of use. I am currently using this on a stock GMC Sierra 1500 and I really could have gone with one size down on the hitch drop/rise, but I figured if I ever bought a 3/4 ton truck or a friend with one ever needed to borrow the hitch it would have enough drop to work with that application as well. As it stands the 5in drop isn't too long to cause clearance issues with a half ton GM truck. For those of you who are wondering about thieves making off with the ball mount - the design of the tow and stow is such that with all the pins removed and the hitch installed on the vehicle, it is not possible to rotate the ball mount off the receiver. Especially if you mount the receiver using the inner most mounting hole. All that is needed is a locking hitch pin and the whole setup is secure. I've attached a picture of the hitch installed on a 2015 GMC Sierra 1500 4x4 for reference.

I am so absolutely thrilled with my trailer hitch! etrailer made my purchase extremely easy. I have never bought a trailer hitch before, but I was able to pick the right size and the capability that I needed, based upon awesome product videos and reviews. Your company has exceeded my expectations of customer service and prompt product delivery. I applaud you and your team!

I am a frequent etrailer customer, the variety and availability of quality components and excellent service is what keeps me coming back. When trailering I strive to be as safe as possible, which is why I chose this heavy duty ball mount to tow my 10,000# car hauler trailer. With this very robust piece, I can be assured that the connection between my truck and trailer is secure.

This was our company's first ETRAILER order. My original order was for a Blu Ox receiver reducer. The plan was to continue using our current 2" drawbars with the 2 1/2" receiver on the "new" (2008) truck. Upon installation it was very apparent that there was way to much side play for safe towing of heavy loads on gravel roads. ETRAILER customer service was contacted for assistance. Holly was extremely knowledgeable regarding the product line and also had "hands on" experience with trailer towing. She not only guided me to the best resolution to my issue; but, also expedited shipment of the replacement drawbar. She further emailed a return shipping label for the reducer that was easy to print, along with straight forward and easy to understand instructions for the return. The UPS driver even commented about the label being the correct size as opposed to many undersized labels that he has received. Our company will now use ETRAILER as our "go to" vendor for trailer repair and towing supplies. As for the drawbar, the construction is one piece forged steel with an I-beam design. The ball appears to be high quality. I have complete confidence that the drawbar and ball kit will perform as needed when we are towing equipment or logs on gravel and dirt roads; as well as, off-road.

Perfect, my second GenY Torsion hitch. Upgrading to the 21K from the 16K. There's not even a close second.

I have yet to tow with this hitch because I just received it today. Upon receiving the box I knew this hitch was not for the faint of heart. It felt like a massive hitch weighing in at 118lbs. Taking it out of the box I could see that this hitch is built like a beast and will likely be more hitch than I will ever need, but I needed a drop hitch and after asking etrailer questions and doing my own extensive research, I decided this was the hitch I should buy. I like the fact that it will give a little more space between the trailer and the truck, it can be used as a pintle setup if the need arises, and it comes with two ball sizes. Using this for my enclosed landscape trailer I am hoping it extends the life of tires and suspension components. I will try and update in the future after towing with this hitch.

Thanks etrailer. .fast friendly. Looks good. Get job done.best deal to..like the part I can call talk to real person and take my order. .I will be back again. .have 2014 Ram 3500 dually nice fit looks strong.

Well made super strong ball and hitch. The carrying bag makes storing the unit in my camping trailer very convenient. Excellent value.

This hitch has been used with both balls in every height position. Hitch is durable and high quality. It has not been off my truck since I purchased it and is used frequently to tow 10-20K trailers.

By far the most heavy duty hitch I have ever purchased. Could tell whwn I picked up the box it was well built! Just got it on when I got home from work and haven't used it yet, but it will definitely get tested tomorrow. I will post pics later. If you are on the fence, get it. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Works great. With all the adjustments we can get our trailers to haul level now. Quality looks really good and it has the 2 size trailer hitch balls which makes it way more convenient.

VERY HAPPY, BUT STARTED TO SEE SOME RUST ON THE HITCH BALL AND ONLY USED TWO TIMES. THE VERSABILITY OF THE PRODUCT IS GREAT. OTHER THAN THE SMALL AMOUNT OF RUST ON THE BALL ITSELF, IM VERY SATISFY AND WILL BUY FOR MY OTHER TRUCKS.

Works flawlessly. I was very excited the day I got home and my Rapid hitch was on the front porch. It came in nice box and was packaged very well. I opened it up and unpacked my rapid hitch and I was very impressed with the quality and precision of this hitch. All of the machining was PERFECT and everything fit together right. I put it in my truck right away. Going down the road with the trailer on and off there is absolutely no rattles, clunks, or jolts. I also love how everything is aluminum or stainless steel, NO RUST. I wish I could've gotten the greaseless model but my boat is too heavy. My only complaint is that it doesn't come with locking pins. With a hitch this expensive I really wish it came with them. Do yourself a favor and order them with your rapid hitch so you don't have to pay for shipping in the future. Other than that great product and I believe it will outlast me.
