• Is there a 1-7/8 Inch Trailer Hitch Ball with a 1-1/4 Inch Shank
  Ball # C48810 is the only 1-7/8 inch diameter ball that also has a 1-1/4 inch shank. Like you said it is made to fit a pintle hitch combo ball mount. What I recommend is a ball with a 1 inch diameter shank like # 19260 and then use bushing # 58184 or # F-2 to use it in your ball mount with the 1-1/4 inch opening.

• Weight Distribution System for 3500 GVWR Pop-Up Camper Towed by Toyota Tundra
  Anytime the fully loaded and ready to tow trailer weight is greater than 50 percent of the weight of the tow vehicle, using weight distribution should be considered. When you get the pop-up, hitch it to the vehicle and pay special attention to the front and rear ride height of the truck. If the rear end sags more than a few inches when the camper's hitched up, your headlights will be aimed incorrectly and braking and steering response can be negatively affected because of the sag at the...

• Is There a 1-7/8 Inch Hitch Ball with a 5,000 Weight Capacity

If you need a hitch ball with a 1-7/8" diameter that has a 5,000 lb weight capacity then you will need to use a pintle hitch ball. For this, we have part # C48810 which has a 1-1/4" diameter shank. You will need to measure the hole for the hitch ball on your ball mount in order to make sure this one will work for you. The only difference between a standard hitch ball and a pintle hitch...

• Replacement Channel Mount Ball Platform for 20K 3 Inch Wide Adjustable Curt Shank

• Complete Towing Setup For 2010 Ford Edge
  Dry weight is the weight of your vehicle when completely empty with no passengers or cargo loaded. The gross trailer weight is total weight of the trailer plus the cargo loaded on it. The main two things you need to look at are your vehicle's max towing capacity and the trailer's gross weight. My research tells me that your 2010 Ford Edge has a max towing capacity of 2,000lbs, but you can verify in your owner's manual. This means you should not pull a trailer that exceeds 2,000lbs. If...

• Availability of Ball Mount With 3" Rise/Drop
  I'm not sure if you're looking for a 3" rise or drop but we have options for both so you don't need to worry about being off by an inch. For a ball mount with a 3" rise you can use the # 40331. You will also need # C48810 for a 1-7/8", # A-90 for a 2", or # 19286 for a 2-5/16" hitch ball. If you need a drop you can use the # TS64FR. This has a 3-1/4" drop but the 1/4" difference won't be noticeable.

• How to Reduce Trailer Sway While Towing with a 2017 Jeep Wrangler Sport

The Steadi-Flex is going to not only help reduce trailer sway but it will also help to distribute tongue weight which improves braking and the overall handling of your tow vehicle. The only thing you will need to use this system is a hitch ball, part # C48810 or part # 63845. Please note...

• Recommended Ball Mount with 6 Inch Drop That Won't Stick Out Further Than 10 Inches From Receiver
  I can understand the concern with using a ball mount with a drop and a longer shank possibly creating a situation where it's more likely to contact the ground. I'll start by saying that the Curt Multi-Ball # D900 is a fairly standard length when it comes to an adjustable ball mount; there are some that come with a longer shank but the roughly 15" total distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the center of the hitch ball is fairly standard. Since you're looking to bring the hitch...
