  • etrailer

You're ready to flat tow, but the hitch on your RV doesn't line up with your towed vehicle. This adjustable adapter gets you closer to the sweet spot. Set it for up to a 6" rise or drop so your tow bar sits level and safe.

Features to know about

Measure for a Safe Tow

Many tow systems need a riser or drop to get the tow bar level. To check your setup, hook up your tow bar, measure, and see if it's within the safe zone. That means no more than 3" above level or 3" below. If it's outside that range, this adapter lets you fine-tune the rise or drop so your bar sits closer to level. It's built for flat towing only, so don't use it to pull a trailer.

  • Built-in receiver size: 2" x 2"
  • Drop/Rise: up to 6" adjustable

  • Finish: matte black
  • Pin hole diameter: 5/8"
  • Included: 2 - black nickel plated adjustment pins and clips and 1- black nickel plated hitch pin and clip

  • Overall length: 17"

Note:

This adapter is designed strictly for flat towing. Do not use it to pull a trailer.

This was better than what I was thinking it was, works great.

Very well made but the receiver is not hollow on the back and nothing will insert far enough for the holes to line up for the pin. Not designed well.



by:

Just what I needed! Etrailer does it a gain!

Very nice and heavy duty



by:

My product was 4 days late but due to Amy J keeping in touch with me through the whole ordeal, I am 100% satisfied with my trailer experience.

Unbelievable service, the tracking information was beyond what I have ever seen ordering online. Ordered a 30lbs hitch from your company and it was here in 3 days, UPS Missouri to California……..WOW!!!! Thank you. And no freight charges, what a company.



by:

This was better than the ad showed, solid and made beyond , just another hitch.



by:

Well, when the first time you grab a hold of this it's very well made. It's got some good weight to it all. The welds look great and very adjustable. Got a very nice finish to it. Good quality, very happy with it if it's perfect in my RV to level up to my Jeep for flat toe



by:

Solid steel and extremely heavy duty. Impressed with ease of ordering and speed of shipping as well. Great experience.



by:

Description was not clear as to depth limitation of lower receiver. From hitch pin to closed back end of lower receiver tube is only 2”. This will not accept my NSA Tow-bar, which requires approx 3 1/4” depth.
Otherwise product quality looks very good and sturdy. Was excited to receive but will not fit my application.

  • What Parts Do I Need to Flat Tow a 2023 Jeep Wrangler 4xe?
    Hi David, I can definitely help with that. Since you already have a tow bar, the next step is choosing a base plate that's compatible with it. If you can let me know the brand of your tow bar, I can point you to the correct base plate with confidence. If you have a Roadmaster tow bar, I recommend the Roadmaster Direct Connect Base Plate Kit, part # RM-521453-5. If you have a Blue Ox tow bar, the correct base plate is part # BX1139. If you have a Demco tow bar, you'll want part # DM9519339....

  • Can The etrailer High-Low Adjustable Adapter e52ZV Be Used For Towing A Trailer?
    Hey Kirt, thanks for reaching out. The etrailer High-Low Adjustable Adapter # e52ZV is only for flat towing a vehicle behind and RV, and cannot be used for towing a trailer, so that won't work for you. We do have hitch extenders that can be used for trailer towing though. For example, the Gen-Y Hitch Receiver Hitch Extender # GY89SR fits a 2" receiver and has a 10,000 lb towing capacity. The big thing to keep in mind here is that using a hitch extension reduces your hitches carrying capacity...

    Hi Gerald; your Falcon 5250 will work with the Roadmaster EZ Base Plate Kit # 521876-1.

    Hey Scott! For your 2025 Toyota Tacoma, I really like the B&W Tow & Stow Pintle Hook with 2" and 2-5/16" Balls # BW67BR.

It adjusts from a 3-1/4" rise down to a 7-1/4" drop, giving you plenty of flexibility to keep either trailer level. The 2" ball is rated for 10,000 lbs and the 2-5/16" ball for 16,000 lbs, so it has more than enough capacity for...
