Switching between trailers often means dealing with different coupler heights, and getting that wrong leads to uneven, unstable towing. This adjustable mount gives you a full 10" drop or 11" rise, with 1" incremental height adjustments so you can dial in a perfect match every time. The platform slides smoothly along the shank and locks solid with dual pins, making it simple to level out any trailer setup before hitting the road.
Balancing tongue weight used to mean separate scales or trial and error, but this hitch has the gauge built right in. The moment your trailer couples to the ball, the built-in scale shows you exactly where your tongue weight sits—up to its 1,500-lb maximum. It’s a quick, automatic way to confirm your load is safe before towing, so you can spend less time fiddling and more time driving with confidence.
When you’re hauling serious weight, reliability matters most. This mount uses solid 6061 T6 billet aluminum for strength without excess heft, paired with stainless-steel hitch balls rated for heavy duty use. The 2-5/16" ball handles up to 12,500 lbs gross towing weight, while the 2" ball manages 10,000 lbs. Every component is SAE J684 and VESC V-5 compliant for confidence that holds up mile after mile.
Road grime and weather can take their toll on towing gear, but this hitch is built to stay clean and strong. The aluminum shank resists corrosion, while the stainless-steel balls keep their shine even after heavy use. Locking dual pins and a keyed-alike receiver lock keep everything tight and secure when you’re on the move—or when your truck’s parked between trips.
No need to pull the whole mount after every tow. Flip the ball platform under the shank toward your vehicle and lock it in place for travel or storage. It keeps the hitch clear of your legs and gives your setup a cleaner look without removing a thing. It’s a simple touch that makes everyday towing easier to live with.

Hi, everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a look at this Weigh Safe built-in scale hitch with two stainless steel balls, and this is designed for your two-inch hitch receiver. Now, this ball mount is going to slide into your two-inch hitch receiver and it's going to give you a 2 5/16 inch and a two-inch, both stainless steel balls. And this is also going to give you a maximum drop in this orientation of 10 inches. And then when you flip this shank over, you'll get a maximum rise of 11 inches and this has incremental adjustment of one inch. So this is going to give you that height adjustability that you're looking for so you can tow trailers of different heights with the same vehicle.
Now, when you use the 2 5/16 inch hitch ball, you're going to get a gross towing weight of 12,500 pounds. Using the two-inch ball, it's 8,000 pounds. This has a maximum tongue weight of 1,500 pounds. And this does feature a tongue weight scale that's built into the ball mount platform that's gonna help you balance your trailer for safer towing. This scale is going to let you know if your load needs to be adjusted before you tow.
It's very simple to use. This is going to automatically provide a measurement every time you couple your trailer. So this is efficient and hassle-free. This is going to eliminate the need for separate or commercial scales. This also features a dual pin slider lock.
This is going to make adjusting the height very simple. And I just took off this rubber cover here that's going to protect that keyway. But let me go ahead and show you how easy this is going to be to operate. So I'm gonna insert the key here, give it a turn, and then that's going to unlock it and allow me to remove this. So this dual pin slider, the pins here are aluminium along with the housing.
And then our lock here is plated steel. So this is very rugged and it's gonna hold up really well against corrosion. And so now this is unlocked, this is going to be able to be freely moved up and down so you can get that adjustment that you're looking for. And then I'm gonna go ahead and remove this real quick. And I just want to show you while I have this off, how easy it's going to be to swap out the ball. So I've got my two-inch ball here and if I wanna swap this out for the 2 5/16 inch ball, I can either tip this over and that pin's gonna slide right out, or if it's not coming right out, you can just pull on this key ring here. So I'm gonna take that pin out, remove the two-inch ball and then insert the 2 5/16 inch ball. I'm gonna line up the holes here and then just gonna run that pin through, finding the hole here, there we go. So my pin is inserted. I wanna make sure the ring is flush. I'm gonna bring my shank back in here and then I'm just gonna be able to slide that back on, just like that. Also, I did want to point out that when you are not towing, this also can be stowed. So you can mount the ball underneath your trailer hitch receiver like this. You'll just replace the dual pin there and then that'll secure it in place. So that's gonna be great because when you're walking behind your truck, you're not gonna have to worry about accidentally banging your shin up against the ball there. So that's a great feature that this includes. And now, I'm just gonna go ahead and replace the dual pins here and I hope you can see just how easy this is to operate. Everything works very smoothly, so you're not gonna be at the back of your vehicle, struggling to get that height adjustment that you're looking for or to swap out the balls. Everything's gonna be very easy to use. Now, this hitch is constructed of aircraft-grade aluminium, giving you superior strength and durability. The solid block construction's gonna give you greater strength than a lot of hollow steel options that are out there. But this is going to maintain a lightweight, but it's gonna be very durable, it's gonna hold up really well for you, and it's gonna be rust-proof for this clean finish that's going to stand the test of time. Now, I mentioned that this also has a locking hitch pin and I wanted to point out that you are going to get four keys. Everything is key to like, so the idea is you can use one key for the dual locking pin or for the hitch lock. So let me just give you a brief demonstration of this. I'm gonna take the key, insert it into the lock, give it a twist, and then that's going to allow me to unlock this. This is a very durable hitch pin lock. I also wanted to point out that when I lock this back up and remove the key, I can still lock this. So what's nice about this is, you don't need the key inserted into the lock to lock this back up. So let me just give you a brief demonstration of that. I don't know if I mentioned you do have a cap here. Obviously, that's gonna protect that keyway from dirt, debris, and things like that. So locking this back up, and you can see it's locked back into place. So I really like that you don't need the key. But again, four keys, they're all key to like. Let me give you some measurements here. Measuring from the center of our first hitch pin hole to the center of the ball, we're sitting at about 8.5 inches. Moving over to the second hitch pin hole from center to center, 9 5/8 inches. And then from the center of the hitch pin, the second hitch pin hole to the end of the shank, about 1 7/8 inches. This is V5 and J684 certified. And I think that's gonna wrap up our look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.

Great product and a good value!
Don't know why I didn't buy this sooner. I will never tow without it. The scale is accurate and reliable.
Always fast delivery and items shows up perfectl.
Great product for being able too adjust the right height for those that have multiple trailers.
I haven't used the product yet but the experience has been great dealing with etrailer and it looks/feels like a quality built product.
Great hitch, the 8" drop worked great on my 24 Ford F250 Tremor.
Haven't open the box yet. Shipping was fast.
Quality product. Much lighter and easier to handle than comparable steel hitch. Scale seems to be accurate based on camper loading and advertised dry tongue weight.
Looks great, works even better, delivery was quicker than I would have believed. Great job Etrailer!
Best trailer hitch ever purchased. Worth every penny.
Quick install, nice! It’s built like a tank, I was concerned about weight, not anymore, it’s so light, even the UPS guy was carrying the hitch with one arm tucked by his side! 3” shank, yes, not much slop. Looking forward to using it for the 1st time tomorrow. Looks sweet on the truck too!
I'm very pleased with the weigh-safe hitch. it exceeds all my expectations. extremely well built and it is extremely heavy duty which is what I was looking for. I will be using it for years.
The hitch is very high quality, no questions it’ll take the full 12,500lbs is rated for. etrailer customer service and shipping is another story, arrived rattling around in a cardboard box with no package material. The lock kit box was absolutely destroyed but fortunately the lock was undamaged. UPS delivery because the shipping label came off. I tried contacting etrailer by email twice because UPS kept telling me my package was damaged, never heard a thing back. Luckily my driver figured out it belonged to me and was able to get the box relabeled.
The weight scale is not registering the tongue weight. It stays on zero.
I haven't towed with it yet, but out of the box very impressed. It weighs in at approx 18 lbs, so rugged. Using on a 2022 RAM 2500. I was concerned because some drop hitches don't fit well in RAMs due to the rounded corners in the receiver. This one fit perfectly. Shipping was great. Packaging was great. I expect it will tow just fine.
Received my new hitch today and can’t be happier with the build quality. Excellent customer service! Can’t wait to test it out on our next trip.
It's a beast! Heavy duty and everything fits together perfectly. Can't wait to haul my camper with it and see what my actual tongue weight is.
I am really impressed with the quality of the Weigh Safe. Although I haven’t used it yet I think it will perform better than my last hitch that almost failed. I will update after I use it.
I downloaded the APP. It took me awhile to figure out how the App work. I think I have it figured out now. It would be nice to give a QR code to a video on how the APP set up works. The Hitch overall is made very well.
I've used this for 12 months on a wide range of trailers 3000-15,000# and it's a great product. At the Cat Scale last week I checked the tongue weight at 1300# on the gauge and it was correct. The range of heights is great with trailers from car carrying box trailer to very tall ag trailer, it works with my 1 ton for all. The light weight makes it easy to mount and dismount 1 handed.
I use this to haul a car on a trailer with my Rv and tongue weight is very important because I don't want to flex the frame, my rv has a very long distance from the axel to the bumper. And with this hitch I am able to place the car on the trailer and know the tongue weight for each position I put the car in. I was able to level the trailer as well. This hitch is well made.
I was very pleased with the fit and finish of the Weigh Safe hitch and scale. I also purchased a standalone tongue weight scale and was happy to see both of them give me very identical readings. I would like to see an additional pin on the height adjustment pin so it’s not relying solely upon the key lock. I would certainly recommend this hitch for someone that wants to know their trailer tongue weight. Will definitely cut down my trips to the CAT scale and provide a more accurate measurement. I can also move weight around and see direct results on the tongue.
Fast delivery, excellent product, timely communication and perfect product description online. Great purchase!!
