Video Transcript for Feature Review Convert-A-Ball Cushioned Pintle Mounting Bar for 2" Hitches

Today we're taking a look at a Convert-a-Ball 00:00:04 Cushion Pintle Mounting Bar. Now, this is cushioned to protect your tow vehicle's drive line and hitch assembly as well as the trailer's contents. So, internally there's a polyurethane interior that acts as a shock absorber, which reduces bounce and rhythmic vibration. It installs easily. What you would do is you would mount your Pintle hitch to the bar using four grade five half inch diameter bolts, Pintle and mounting hardware are sold separately.If you're in need of those, you can find all that at etrailer.com, and then the shank of the unit slides into a two inch square hitch receiver, and attaches or secures with a standard 5/8" diameter hitch pin or hitch lock. Those items are sold separately as well.

The unit's constructed of a powder coated steel, again it has the nice polyurethane interior cushion, but the powder coating does a great job at helping the unit resist rust and corrosion. It's made in the USA. It fits a two inch by two inch trailer hitch receiver. The towing capacity is 10,000 pounds. Towing weight capacity is 2,000 pounds.We're going to go over some measurements with you real quick.

The distance that we have between our mounting holes, side to side going this way, that gives us a measurement of 3 3/8, and then going this direction, it's going to measure 1 3/4". The distance that we get from the front edge of that hitch pin hole, to the front of the mounting plate is six inches. Overall length, back to front, is a bout nine inches.From the center of the hitch pin hole to the back of the shank, that measures about 2 5/8", and the actual mounting plate, edge to edge this direction measures five inches, edge to edge in this direction is about four inches. That's going to do it for today's look at the Convert-a-Ball Cushion Pintle Mounting Bar.
