The black powder coat finish adds an extra layer of durability, ensuring your adapter looks and performs like new, even after repeated use. It's a piece of gear you can depend on, trip after trip.

  • Recommended 3 Inch to 2 Inch Hitch Reducer with 5/8 Inch Pin Hole
    There is a solution for you, the Buyers Products 3" to 2" Receiver Tube Adapter # 337RTA302 which has a 5/8" hitch pin hole and would give you the security you need. Using the Curt Hitch Receiver Reducer Sleeves - 3" to 2-1/2" or 2" # C45408 with its 3/4" hitch pin hole would not be ideal because the conflicting hitch pin diameters would mean your tow bar would be loose inside the receiver. I have added a link to a video review of the Buyers Products adapter for you to check out as well.

  • Is There a 3" to 2" Reducer Available for a 2021 Ford F-350?
    We definitely have a couple options for you. I do not suggest using multiple reducers with weight distribution, so the Buyers Products 3" to 2" Receiver Tube Adapter # 337RTA302 will adapt your 3 inch receiver to a 2 inch without the need of one in between them. I do suggest using an anti rattle device when using a reducer with a weight distribution system, however, and the Blue Ox Hitch Receiver Immobilizer # BLU85QR is designed to fit 3 inch hitches and will keep everything nice and secure...

  • Adapter to Go From 3 Inch Hitch of 2017 Ford F-250 to 2 inch HItch
    If the truck you buy does have a 3-inch hitch installed on it the Buyers Products Adapter Part # 337RTA302 would be the correct adapter as it will slide into the hitch and provide you with a 2-inch hitch. A standard hitch pin that you would have for the 3-inch hitch would be all you need to secure the adapter like part # 58388. Then for a pin for the 2-inch hitch you would want the part # PC3.

  • Adapter to Use a Tow Bar with a 2 inch Shank in a 3 inch Hitch Receiver Opening
    I do have a way for you to use your Avail tow bar with a 3-inch hitch receiver, however, there are no replacement shanks that fit a 3-inch hitch receiver. All you need to use a tow bar that fits a 2-inch hitch receiver in a 3-inch hitch receiver is use the Buyers Products Receiver Adapter # 337RTA302. This will reduce the receiver opening size on your trailer hitch from 3 inches to 2 inches so that you can use any tow bar with a 2-inch shank. It has a Gross Towing Weight (GTW) capacity...

  • Can The etrailer Anti Rattle Clamp e38FV Be Used With A 3" To 2" Reducer Adapter?
    Good afternoon Nathan, that's a great question! You can use the etrailer Anti-Rattle Hitch Collar for 2" Hitch Receivers # e38FV with a 3" to 2" reducer adapter like Buyers Products 3" to 2" Receiver Tube Adapter # 337RTA302 when installed on the 2" section. Keep in mind, this adapter is not a fit for the vehicle's 3" receiver section. I added a photo which highlights the 2" section that this adapter would be compatible with on a 3" to 2" adapter. Usually this anti-rattle collar is used...

  • Why Does the Buyers Products 3 to 2 Receiver Tube Adapter Reduce Weight Capacity
    In regards to the Buyers Products 3" to 2" Receiver Tube Adapter part # 337RTA302 which is a great option for a Ford F-350, the adapter will actually reduce the towing capacity of the trailer hitch and vehicle while in use to 12,000 lbs of gross trailer weight and 1,200 lbs of tongue weight. The reason that this adapter reduces capacity is because it extends the connection beyond the receiver. If you're looking for a reducer which does not reduce capacity, I recommend the Trailer Hitch...

  • Can I Use An Extender For A 2-1/2" Hitch In A 2" Hitch?
    I do have some potential solutions for you, but we are not aware of any kind of adapter that would go from a 2" hitch to a 2-1/2" hitch. An adapter like that would cause a lot of folks to overload their 2" hitches. The 2" hitches are only rated for so much weight. Also keep in mind that the use of a hitch adapter/extender will effectively decrease your tongue weight capacity by half. Using an adapter plus an extension would drastically decrease your towing capacity, and this would not be...

  • Recommended Hitch Extension For A 3 Hitch On A 2021 Ford F-250
    The 3" hitches Ford is using are throwing everyone for a bit of a loop. With that being said, I do have a couple options for you to check out. First will be the TorkLift Cannon Hitch Extension - 3" Ford Super Duty Factory Hitch # TLE1636. This will measure 32 inches long, so it is longer than you need, but it is also rated up to 3,600 pounds towing and 360 pounds of tongue weight. This jumps up to 7,200 pounds towing and 720 pounds of tongue weight when a weight distribution system is...

  • Will Using a Receiver Hitch Reducer Sleeve Reduce Tongue Weight Of Receiver?
    Using a Hitch Sleeve Reducer # BWRHXA2182 or # BWRHXA2183 will not reduce the capacity of your receiver. You will need to ensure you do exceed the weight capacity of the ball mount or other hitch mounted accessory that you are using. A sleeve like the Buyers Products 3" to 2" Receiver Tube Adapter # 337RTA302 will have its own weight capacity rating. For this sleeve it is 1,200lbs tongue weight and 12,000lbs trailer weight, so you will be limited to those weight capacities rather than...

  • Correct 3 to 2 Hitch Reducer for Ford OEM 3 Hitch
    I do have an option for you but the Reducer Sleeve for Super Titan Hitch Receivers part # 38735 does not work with any of the Ford OEM 3" Hitches. Instead, I recommend the Buyers Products 3" to 2" Receiver Tube Adapter part # 337RTA302 which is confirmed to fit.

  • Is There A 3 Inch Hitch Receiver To 2 Inch Receiver Sleeve Reducer Available?
    Absolutely. For your 3 inch receiver, I recommend the Buyers Products 3" to 2" Receiver Tube Adapter Item # 337RTA302. This will allow you to use your Tow Bar without issue.

  • Adapter to Fit 3 inch Hitch of 2017 Ford F-350 and Provide 2 inch Hitch
    The correct adapter for the 3 inch hitch on your 2017 Ford F-350 down to a 2 inch hitch is the Buyers Products adapter part # 337RTA302 as it has the correct diameter for the hitch pin of 5/8 inch. Everything else we offer does not match this size.

  • Is it Safe to Use More Than One Reducer Sleeve to Go From 3" to 2" Receiver Size
    It's definitely okay to use 2 sleeves to reduce your 3" receiver down to a 2" receiver. We actually have our Reducer Sleeve Kit # e33YR which this setup. If you'd feel safer with 1 solid piece then it sounds like you're wanting the Buyers Products 3" to 2" Receiver Tube Adapter # 337RTA302 which does give you a little bit of extension but also means you aren't using 2 pieces just to get down to the desired receiver size. Attached are review videos of each product for you to check out.

  • Is It Safe To Tow and What Is Weight Capacity When Using Buyers Product Receiver Adapter # 337RTA302
    Yes, it is safe to tow with the Buyers Products 3" to 2" Receiver Tube Adapter # 337RTA302. This reducer will reduce the 3 Inch opening on your hitch to a 2 Inch opening. I contacted our representative at Buyers Products, and he informed me that the adapter will not cut down the weight or the tongue weight capacity of your hitch. Part # 337RTA302 does not extend out far enough to reduce the weight capacity, as would be the case with a hitch extender. He said, that as long as you use a...

  • 3 Hitch Receiver Bike Rack Recommendation
    While most all bike racks are designed for 1-1/4" or 2" hitch receivers, a solution that will work great for your Class V, 3" receiver is the Buyers Products 3" to 2" Receiver Tube Adapter # 337RTA302. This adapter will not reduce the capacity of your 3" hitch which is not all that important to a bike rack but should help if you also use it for 2" towing accessories. My recommendation for a 4-bike rack is the Saris Freedom # SA4414B because it has a very established track record of...

  • Is It Possible To Use A 2 Inch Bike Rack On A 3 Inch Hitch Receiver?
    I have a solution for you, but the Thule T2 Pro XTR Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches # TH83JV will not work with a receiver reducer sleeve since the bike rack's locking hitch hook will not fit around that 3" receiver opening. I recommend looking into the Buyers Products 3" to 2" Receiver Tube Adapter # 337RTA302 as this will be your only option. This will extend the 3" receiver while converting it to 2" so that the Thule bike rack can fit and lock into place. I attached a couple demonstration...

  • Can Hollywood Racks RV Rider Fit in 3 inch Hitch and Still Use Hitch Lock
    To use the Hollywood Racks RV Rider part # HLY64FR in a 3 inch hitch and allow you to still use the hitch lock you'd need a hitch reducer like the part # 337RTA302 which puts the 2 inch hitch out far enough from the 3 inch hitch for the pin and lock to fit through.

  • Weight Distribution Recommendation for 2015 Jayco Octane for Ford F350 with 3 inch Hitch
    Since you have a 3 inch hitch on your 2022 Ford F-350 and there aren't systems that fit that hitch size directly quite yet you'd need to use the adapter part # 337RTA302 to fit a system designed for a 2 inch hitch like the Equal-i-zer part # EQ64FR which would work great for your 2015 Jayco Octane since it has a tongue weight range of 1,200 to 1,600 lbs. This also has a 4 point friction sway control integrated into it.

  • Compatibility of the e99007 Hitch Stabilizer with 3 Inch Receiver with Reducers
    The etrailer Anti-Rattle Hitch Stabilizer for 2" Hitches - Vinyl Coated Steel # e99007 is compatible with your 2 inch ball mount. The U-bolt is 4-1/4 inches tall overall and 2 inches wide on the inside. This should allow for snugging your ball mount into your receiver depending on the reducers used. If you have a stacked reducer like the Curt Hitch Receiver Reducer Sleeves - 3" to 2-1/2" or 2" # C45408 the collar may have too much of a gap to overcome with that type of stabilizer but...

  • Adapter for Swagman XTC2 on Ford F-250 With 3" Receiver
    Hi Woody; the Buyers Products 3" to 2" Receiver Tube Adapter # 337RTA302 will solve your problem. This adapter extends out from your 3" receiver and has an additional hitch pin hole so the anti-rattle hitch pin will once again be usable.

  • 3 Inch to 2 Inch Trailer Hitch Reducer for 2019 Ford F-350 Super Duty
    That's a good question and to reduce the 3" receiver in your 2019 Ford F-350 to a 2" receiver I recommend using the Buyers Products 3" to 2" Receiver Tube Adapter # 337RTA302. The reason is, this is a single-piece reducer which will be simpler to use than having to mess with both a sleeve and a reducer. It also completely eliminates the chance of forgetting you had a sleeve in the receiver and having it fall out, as wisely noted by one of our customers. I have added a link to a video...

  • Recommended Hitch Reducer For A 3" Trailer Hitch Receiver
    Hey Gerry, The Buyers Products 3" to 2" Receiver Tube Adapter # 337RTA302 uses a 5/8" hitch pin, but I'm assuming you probably have a 3/4" hitch pin hole on your 3" receiver? If so then the Curt Hitch Receiver Reducer Sleeves - 3" to 2-1/2" or 2" # C45408 would be a better option for you help eliminate play.

  • Availability of 3 Receiver to 2 Weight Distribution Shank Adapter with Anti-Rattle
    Since you want to avoid an adapter that uses 2 sleeves to get you from your 3" receiver down to the 2" shank size of your weight distribution (WD) system you can potentially use the 12K Buyers Products # 337RTA302. One thing to note is that this reducer has really not been tested with a WD system so you'll be sailing in uncharted territory. If you'd like an option is known to work with a WD system then you need to use the Curt Adapter # C45408 instead. Unfortunately there are no anti-rattle...

Instead you could use the Curt Hitch Receiver Reducer Sleeves - 3" to 2-1/2" or 2" # C45408 to convert your 3-inch hitch on your 2021 Ford F-350 to a 2-inch hitch with a 5/8 inch hitch pin.
