Video Transcript for Review of the 2" Receiver Attachment for BulletProof Hitches Adjustable Ball Mount

Hey guys, this is Jake here with Etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at, and I'm gonna show you some of the cool features on the BulletProof Hitches two-inch hitch receiver attachment for their hitches. So you've got your BulletProof hitch, but you've decided that you really like leaving it in the back of your truck. Well, that is exactly what this attachment is designed to do. It can either be an addition to your ball mount, or you can use it as a hitch receiver. This is my personal truck, and I've got the support bars on my BulletProof hitch.

These are both available on our website, if you don't already have one, but if you've got something to turn you from getting the this set up, because it takes a long time to remove everything, that's exactly what I have an issue with. A lot of times here at work, I want to take out a bike rack or a cargo carrier, something like that, and I can't do it because I have to remove these support bars to be able to remove my ball mount. Either that or I have to take out this bolt to detach it and then still, even then, I don't have anything that are supporting the bars then. So that is what exactly what this accessory is for. You simply slide it in place.

You can attach it at any point along your ball mount. I was actually using this accessory last week, and it was really handy 'cause you can slide the pins in, pull this pin out, and then now you can use this for a hitch-mounted bike rack, which is what I was using it for, or a cargo carrier, and there's even some people out there using it for actually putting another ball in here. So they'll put a ball mount in here, if they don't have the inch and seven eighths because most of BulletProof Hitches, most of their ball mounts come with a 2 inch ball and a 2 5/16 ball. Well, you might have a small jet ski trailer that you ever so often need to tow, and then it'll have a inch and seven eights ball. That's where this is gonna come in handy because you can use it for other accessories.

You can use it for ball mounts. It can pretty much be used for anything. It'll have a 1,000-pound tongue weight capacity and a 10,000 pound gross trailer weight capacity. Here's an example of how you can use it with your vehicle. I do have it in the highest setting.

So it's gonna give you a ton of ground clearance. It is straight in line with my truck's original hitch. So this is how high the cargo carrier would normally fit on my factory hitch anyway. The one thing I will say about this, and it goes for your bike racks, your cargo carriers and the ball mounts is that there is enough play in these pins here. It's a very tight fit to get the pins in place, but you can see here I'm lifting up on the cargo carrier. The cargo carrier is not moving inside the two-inch hitch receiver at all, and you can see how much play we have just in these two pins. I'd say that's probably the only thing I do not like about the accessory. So when I was using this last week with a bike rack that I was hauling around in the back, we had two very expensive carbon bikes on the rack itself. So we could not have hardly any movement, any more that the truck would already give to the rack. What I did was I left my ball mount on the bottom, or left the balls here on the bottom, and I just put a cam buckle strap around the bottom ball and then pulled this down so that way when I hit any bumps, the cam buckle strap was holding it down and lastly, this accessory is gonna have the same rugged black matte black powder coat that all of their other accessories and their hitches are gonna have. So it's gonna hold up for a long time. You might be looking at all the air accessories here. These have been on my truck for two years, loaded on the back of the vehicle. So they're holding up pretty good. There's a little bit of rust here and there. Mainly just points of wear. So I only have little spots of rust on the insides of the holes and then on top of each ball. So I have no complaints at all about the entire ball mount assembly. I don't have any worries about this accessory.
