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 provides the rise or drop needed to bring it back in line. It's built for flat towing only, so don't use it to pull a trailer.

Video Transcript for Review of etrailer High-Low Fixed Adapter - e85ZV

Hi everyone. Steven here with etrailer.com. Today we're looking at our etrailer high low fixed adapter for tow bars. Folks, this is gonna fit a two inch hitch receiver and it has a two inch shank on it and it gives you a max two inch drop or two inch rise depending on how you have it positioned and it's rated at 10,000 pounds capacity. So the shank here is a nice solid shank, so it's heavy duty steel, has a nice elegant matte black finish. So it's gonna blend in with the rest of your hitch hardware and your receiver and those kind of things.

And like I said, it does fit a two inch by two inch receiver tube. You have a nice hitch pin and clip that's a 5/8 inch diameter with the included clip. This is a black nickel finish and right now I've got it in the drop position and you again could flip it to the rise position as well. And again, you have two inches up or down, rise or drop. And the hitch pin hole here is a 5/8 inch hitch pin hole as well.

You only get one hitch pin clip included because you should already have a hitch pin and clip for your accessory or in this case your tow bar itself. Again, this is solid steel rated at 10,000 pounds capacity. Great for flat towing. Make sure you have everything you need for flat towing as well, not just your high low adapter. You can reach out to us if you have any questions about this product or anything else we carry for your flat towing experience.

Folks that will wrap it up for our quick look together. I'm Steven. Thanks for watching.

  • Can I Use the etrailer High-Low Fixed Adapter for Tow Bars e85ZV on a Boat Trailer?
    Hey Jeremy. I have a solution for you but the etrailer item # e85ZV is not going to work. It's a high low adapter that's only rated for flat towing setups. You can't pull a trailer with it. Instead you'll want to use the Gen-Y Hitch Receiver Hitch Extender for 2" Trailer Hitches item # GY89SR. This one is rated for pulling up to a 10,000 lbs trailer. It's a bit longer at 14" but it's also going to fit a 2" receiver. This shouldn't be an issue with your F-350 but please note that all...

  • Hitch Extender for Draw-Tite Front Mount Hitch on 2022 Nissan Frontier
    Hi Andrew; when you say hitch plate do you mean like a license plate holder or an actual hitch plate for towing? The etrailer High-Low Fixed Adapter # e85ZV is only rated for flat towing. If you wanted it to hold some kind of bracket for a license plate that wouldn't be an issue. However, without any kind of tongue weight rating I can't recommend using it for a step. The Roadmaster # RM-048-2 has the same measurements and design with a 400 lb tongue weight capacity so that would work....

  • Is There 10 inch Hitch Extension that Can be used When Towing a Vehicle
    Hey Jay, the etrailer High Low adapter part # e85ZV that you referenced is designed for use when towing one vehicle with another vehicle. This is what flat towing is. This is a situation where there is basically no tongue weight as all since a vehicle is supported with 4 wheels unlike a trailer where the front of it is supported but the trailer hitch of the tow vehicle. This specific adapter is designed only for flat towing so a better option would be the # HES0 which was designed for towing...

  • What is the Distance Between the Hitch Pin Holes on the etrailer High-Low Adapter for Tow Bars?
    Hey Tim. From center to center of the hitch pin holes is 10" on the etrailer High-Low Fixed Adapter for Tow Bars item # e85ZV. This 2" high low adapter fits a 2" hitch receiver and has a 10,000 lbs capacity. It's designed to be used exclusively for flat towing and can not be used to tow a trailer or mount an accessory like a bike rack. If you need an extender for a trailer, I recommend our etrailer item # e88YR 8" long or item # e28YR 14" long. How long of an extension are you needing...
