Today on our 2014 Ford Expedition, we'll be test fitting the convert-a-ball cushioned adjustable Pintle mounting bar for two-inch hitches. With a total of eight holes, and rated at ten-thousand pounds, it's part number is AMPC2. This eight-hole mounting bar lets you adjust the Pintle height, to level your trailer. Before we begin our test fit, we first need to get our hitch height. This is a measurement from the ground to the inside top of the receiver tube. It's about 20-1/4 inches.
This is going to vary, depending on tire size, hitch style, or load. Now to begin our test fit, we'll start in the drop position. Simply slide the shank of the mounting bar into the receiver tube of our hitch. We'll line up the pinholes, slide in our pin, and secure it with a clip. You can also flip it over into the rise position. Just pull the pin, flip it 180 degrees, put your pin back in, secure it with the clip.
This will give us additional options for height settings. That will complete today's test fit for the Convert-a-ball, cushioned adjustable Pintle mounting bar, part number AMPC2, on our 2014 Ford Expedition. .

8-Hole mounting bar lets you adjust the pintle height to level your trailer. Cushioned shank protects your equipment and smoothes your ride. If you are using this bar with a closed trailer hitch, the receiver tube must be at least 2-3/8" deep.I absolutely love this hitch!!! I regularly tow 9-10,000lbs total load (tractor and trailer). Pintle are great but noisy and tend to slam and transfer that shock to the truck. I ran a ball style of this hitch years ago and noticed a difference with that so figured I would give this a shot. I don't notice or feel any more slamming while coming to a stop or taking off! What a major comfort improvement over the rigid hitch. My only complaint, seeing as I live in New England with salty roads is that the actual sliding block inside the hitch is bare metal. It's rusting up and froze my pin inside it. Got the pin out with a air hammer and patience but now am going to soak it down. I've only owned this for a year and that's the only complaint I have
Not only was the online ordering extremely easy, but etrailer reps provided outstanding follow up sending me updates on the status of my order. I received a message thanking me and a projected shipping date. Then a very rare thing occurred...they not only shipped it earlier than initially thought but they took it upon themselves to upgrade my delivery option at no cost to me! My order arrived in perfect shape, exactly what I ordered, and 5 days early. You simply do not see that kind of service anymore. Consider me a very happy customer who will always look to etrailer first on future orders! Many thanks!
came to my home with out delay and installing on my truck looks great thank you etrailer
Great hitch, very nicely built. Fast sh ipping.
Delivered as promised. All parts in order. Easy assembly. Likely to purchase from this merchant again
good product and as always etrailer shipped it out quickly.
Your service was excellent and the products arrived at the time stated on the order. Thanks for your help in expediting my order. Everything was exactly what I needed.
This is my second pintle mount from Conver-A-Ball I bent the first one when my pintle hook bound on the ring of my trailer. The first lasted for many years, and hopefully this replacement will too.
Good product and was everything I dreamed it would be. Couldn't be be more happy I'm towing stuff all over the place.
The website is very easy to use and very descriptive of all the products. The shipment was super fast, the mount arrived at my door three days after purchase. The cushion feature of the mount makes for very gentle stops with my 16' enclosed trailer and my dump trailer. Excellent product and excellent service all around.
Thanks George!
I will definitely use this site again for future purchases...
Product's shaft edges are so rounded it slaps around in my receiver quite a bit, I hope it works better with a trailer attached.
Seems to be adequate. Gave it a lower grade because it does not have a permanent marking/stamp listing weight limit, just a sticker, which will eventually fall off...
This was exactly what I needed and shipping was fast
Great product!
Excellent customer service provided
Looks like a very well made product.
