Have done about 5k with this hitch, just once with a 4500lb camper but mostly with a 3000lb cargo trailer. The former in a highly raised position and the latter in the absolute bottom position. The hitch has worn very well and shows no signs of excess wear, save for the surface of the 2" ball, but it's not concerning. On a Jeep Grand Cherokee with a stock suspension, this seems to give the right balance of range of adjustment without dropping so low in the lower configuration as to scrape through dips, though it can still be done on very sharp dips with the hitch on the lowest setting. Overall, very pleased with it and love that it's lighter than steel and won't rust.

Sooooo....you sent me a product that was somehow put together backwards and I cannot take them apart somehow the ballhitch is stuck on the male portion backwards and defies gravity and doesn’t need a pin to stay on(becaue thier is no where to put the pin in cause it’s backwards
by: Gerard 12/16/2022
Heavy duty hitch that’s easy to adjust to meet the three different trailers that I have. As always, great customer service from etrailer.
by: Ronaldâ09/01/2020
Best adjustable height hitch out there. Like the double ball as it takes only a minute to pull a pin and flip the ball assembly upside down to change sizes. Also like the availability of all the parts if I need a replacement or to purchase a separate single ball in a larger size. Best of all, it's Made In the USA! No junky import stuff. Bought the locking pins so a thief is not going to walk off with anything. Nice hitch.

Great hitch. Very well-made. The easy adjustability is its biggest plus.
by: Patrick04/14/2022
Love this hitch! I have used it for our pop-up camper, our small cargo trailer, the high schools' marching band trailer and another friend's cargo trailer. Being able to switch the drop and ball quickly has made it so I don't have to remember to grab the correct hitch for the job. This one does everything I need.
by: Donald04/28/2018
I have a 4” drop on the rear of my truck, so this rise was perfect to keep my little trailer at the correct height. Great looking product.
by: James 04/15/2023
Works as advertised looks as good as the day it was bought. Just buy it you won't regret it.

Works great on back of my tractor. Makes moving different trailers easy with adjustable height. And easy to take off when not needed
by: Scott09/10/2019
I do love the hitch
it fits my bill perfectly and love ability to adjust height easily, and never have to change out the ball sizes
I do wish I had a standard trailer pin hitch though. I find myself carrying one around to slide into receiver just for pin type hookups
by: Greg A07/31/2017
Received anderson rapid hitch, 3411 the first one I received I thought looked slightly used.looked installed into a 2 inch receiver with slight marks. E trailer sent me a second one and sent a pickup of the first. All is good now seems like a very solid unit e trailer was excellent in customer service, seems like the small circles inside slide are on all rapid hitches some kind of manufacturing marks, over all good service.

Awesome hitch
by: Elizabeth 03/26/2021
I have a small trailer and a minivan. This hitch was very easy to install and has worked perfectly for us. We travel back and forth about 700 miles from one state to another several times per year and have no garage in one of the states. The hitch is aluminum, so it weathers well and still looks new. I am glad I picked this hitch. I will transfer it when I purchase a new vehicle and believe it will serve us well for many years. Thank you for making a quality product!!
by: John02/09/2023
Hitch is beautiful and feels super strong. Is super easy to adjust and going to be great fit for the new truck!
by: Greg 08/14/2020
Have been a customer for long time! Always and I mean always have had a great experience! The latest was super great as I needed a hitch in a big hurry to escape from a high Covid area and Odelia went way out of her way to make the delivery super fast! And to get us out of the area! :) E trailer has great customer service and products always have been quality!! Don't be afraid to do business with etrailer........
by: Jesse pardue05/30/2015
This is a great product my father has had one for years and I just bought one, it would be nice if it included a second pin though, for the actual hitch to truck connection. As for shipping it got here right on time I would just suggest making sure that an email is sent with tracking information immediately after purchase.
by: Randy S.07/22/2018
My adjustable hitch is a very high quality piece. It is just what I needed to adjust the ball height. Hitch is easy to use.
by: Martin 10/22/2021
Nice Kit! Quite the looker. This will work well with my '21 Cherokee Trailhawk nicely. Receiver sits at about 21 inches, this drops the ball to level the trailer nicely.
by: Andrew 01/03/2021
This hitch is a fraction of the weight of my old adjustable hitch, which makes it easier to handle and transport.
by: Ron02/05/2021
Great hitch glad i purchased it along with the locking pins. My dad has used them for years.
by: Jeff 07/29/2021
Hitch is awesome. I have it on my 2018 Sierra 1500 with 3” blocks (2” higher than stock) and this thing should allow me to adjust to whatever trailer I might need to pull. Solid quality; I have no concerns about it falling apart.
by: Margaret G01/12/2021
This hitch is so easy to use. It is great that there are two hitch balls available. It is very durable does a great job and looks great.
by: Robert -05/06/2020
Great product. Strong, adjustable and doesn't rust. I used it to get the correct height between my Jeep and camper, worked very well. Then able to adjust and put on my truck.
by: Keith11/20/2016
The hitch shipped the same day I ordered it. I really like the convenience of 2 ball sizes and adjustability. Shopping etrailer was a very good experience.
by: Ted08/28/2021
High quality, great customer service, prompt shipping. The videos were extremely helpful as well. Very happy and will follow up in a few days when I pick up my new custom trailer!!

See what our Experts say about this Andersen Trailer Hitch Ball Mount
- Adjustable Ball Mount Recommendation with 2 inch and 1-7/8 inch Hitch BallThere is only one adjustable ball mount that has a 2 inch ball on one side of the platform and a 1-7/8 inch on the other. For that you would need the Rapid Hitch part # AM3411. This is an aluminum setup too so it will not corrode either.
view full answer... - How to Remove Internal Pin on Rapid Hitch Adjustable Aluminum Ball Mount AM3411To remove the existing hitch ball combo on your Andersen Rapid Hitch Ball Mount like # AM3411, you will first need to remove the internal pin that goes through the ball housing and hitch ball. The small pin has a threaded hole in it. This lets you insert a 1/4 inch screw or bolt into it. You can then simply turn the pin so that it starts to come out enough from the housing so you can pull it out the rest of the way. Once the pin is removed, the ball combo will slide right out. You may...
view full answer... - What Is The Weight And Specs Of Rapid Hitch Adjustable Ball Mount AM3411I spoke with the manufacturer and can confirm that the weight of Rapid Hitch Adjustable Aluminum Ball Mount # AM3411 is 17 lbs. This hitch is lightweight, yet very strong. It has a towing capacity of 7,500 lbs with 1-7/8" hitch ball, and 8,000 lbs with 2" hitch ball The maximum rise is 6-1/2", and the maximum drop is 5-1/2". I have attached a video below that reviews this # AM3411 drop hitch.
view full answer... - Recommended Adjustable Ball Mount with Up To 5-1/2" DropI recommend going with an adjustable ball mount like the Rapid Hitch Adjustable Aluminum Ball Mount Kit - 2 Zinc Balls - 5-1/2" Drop, 6-1/2" Rise # AM3411 you were looking at. An adjustable hitch provides you with the flexibility to handle trailers that might be different heights while always keeping your trailer level, while not having to swap out ball mounts depending on how your vehicle is loaded. The Rapid Hitch adjusts in 1" increments, so you should be covered no matter what setting...

The small pin has a threaded hole in it, through which you can insert a 1/4 inch screw or bolt to thread into it.

view full answer... - Replacement Shank for Rapid Hitch Adjustable Aluminum Ball Mount Kit 3411We do have just the shank part of the Andersen Rapid Hitch adjustable ball mount # AM3411. You will need replacement shank # AM3422. It has the same maximum rise of 6-1/2 inches and maximum drop of 5-1/2 inches, adjustable in 1 inch increments.
view full answer... - Recommended Locking Hitch and Adjustable Pin for Rapid Hitch Adjustable Ball MountFor the Rapid Hitch Adjustable Ball Mount, # AM3411, I recommend the Rapid Hitch Trailer Hitch Lock and Adjustable Pin Lock Set, # AM3492. This lock set is designed to be used with the Rapid Hitch ball mounts and the pins are keyed alike so you will only need one key between both locks.
view full answer... - Choosing the Correct 1-7/8 Inch and 2 Inch Dual Ball MountThere are dual ball mounts that have both a 1-7/8" and 2" hitch ball available, though you need to determine the amount of rise or drop you need in order to choose the correct ball mount. For example, the Rapid Hitch Adjustable Ball Mount Kit # AM3411 fits a 2" receiver and offers up 5-1/2" of drop or 6-1/2" of rise. The Rapid Hitch # AM3414 is another option and offers up to 10" of drop. In order to choose the correct ball mount, there are a couple measurements you'll need to take. First,...
view full answer... - Which Adjustable Ball Mount for Dodge 3/4 Ton Truck w/ 5 Inch LiftThe adjustable ball mount you need will depend on the drop you need to tow your trailer level. I'll link you to our FAQ article that shows how to measure and determine the rise/drop of ball mount needed. Once you find the difference between the level height of your trailer coupler and the height of the hitch on your vehicle, click the link for adjustable ball mounts that I provided for you. Scroll down the left margin until you find the drop you need. For instance, if your measurements...
view full answer... - What is the Tongue Weight Capacity of the Rapid Hitch Adjustable Aluminum Ball Mount KitThe Rapid Hitch adjustable ball mount # AM3411 you referenced, will have a tongue weight capacity of 1,500 pounds. I included a video review about the Rapid Hitch and an informative article about tongue weight for you too.
view full answer... - Is Draw-Tite Adjustable Ball Mount # 6580 Made In The USAThe Draw-Tite Adjustable Ball Mount # 6580 that you referenced is made overseas. For a comparable unit in terms of rise/drop, capacity, and price that is made right here in the USA I recommend taking a look at the Rapid Hitch Adjustable Aluminum Ball Mount Kit - 2 Zinc Balls - 5-1/2" Drop, 6-1/2" Rise Item # AM3411. This particular model has a weight capacity of up to 8,000 pounds. This unit also includes a 2-sided ball platform with a 1-7/8" hitch ball on one side and a 2" hitch ball...
view full answer... - How to Remove Hitch Ball Component of Rapid Hitch Adjustable Aluminum Ball Mount AM3411On the Rapid Hitch Adjustable Aluminum Ball Mount # AM3411 the ball can be removed from the mount by gently tapping on the mount when it is removed from the shank part. The ball pin is just a friction fit. If needed you can apply some light lubricant, such as WD-40, before you tap the curved part of the mount with a rubber mallet. Stand up the mount part on its flat surface when you do this. The ball housing, part # AM3423, can be removed from the shank component # AM3441 by removing the...
view full answer... - What is the Difference Between the 3300 and 3400 Series Ball Mounts from AndersonThe 3300 series from Anderson, like part # AM3298, has a powder coat finish and is made of steel. The 3400 series, like part # AM3411, is made of aluminum so it have a better looking finish and will not rust. Another difference is that the 3300 series tends to be for more of a heavy-duty application because they can handle more weight. The 3400 series can handle weight up to 10,000 lbs so it cannot be used for as heavy-duty applications. I spoke with my contact at Anderson who confirmed this.
view full answer... - Adjustable Ball Mount With Both 2 and 1-7/8 Diameter BallsYes, the Rapid Hitch Adjustable Aluminum Ball Mount Kit - 2 Zinc Balls - 5-1/2" Drop, 6-1/2" Rise Item # AM3411 is exactly what you're looking for! It provides the 2" and 1-7/8" diameter balls you're looking for.
view full answer... - Replacement Locking Pins for Rapid Hitch Adjustable Ball Mount # AM3411For the Rapid Hitch Adjustable Locking Aluminum Ball Mount # AM3411 we do have the replacement locking pins with part # AM3492. This set includes both the longer 7-1/2 inch adjustment locking pin and the shorter 6-1/2 inch hitch receiver lock. Andersen no longer offers just the longer locking pin as a separate item. I have attached a short video demonstration on this lock set that you can also check out.
view full answer... - Aftermarket vs Factory Hitch Strength on 1999 Chevy SuburbanThe Curt # C14029 is a Class IV hitch with a 10,000 lb capacity like you mentioned; the difference in capacities often comes down to construction, design and attachment points. In regards to the correct hitch and ball mount for your towing capacity and drop, the previously mentioned Curt # C14029 would be a great choice. As for ball mount for different amounts of drop, I recommend the Rapid Hitch Adjustable Aluminum Ball Mount Kit - 2 Zinc Balls - 5-1/2" Drop, 6-1/2" Rise Item # AM3411....
view full answer... - Does Rapid Hitch Adjustable Aluminum Ball Mount # AM3411 Have the Capacity to Tow my BoatThis Rapid Hitch Adjustable, Aluminum Ball Mount Kit # AM3411, has towing capacities of 7,500 lbs when used with the 1-7/8 inch ball and 8,000 lbs when used on the 2 inch ball. We carry steel ball mounts that have higher towing capacities, and also some that have less towing capacities than this ball mount. If your boat and trailer weighs less than the capacity of this ball mount than you should not have to worry about the strength of it. You will want to pick a ball mount that will...
view full answer... - Aluminum Adjustable Ball Mount Recommendation for 8 inches of DropI have a solution for you, but if you need up to an 8 inch drop the Andersen ball mount part # AM3411 that you referenced can only do a max drop of 5-1/2 inches. For a similar adjustable ball mount that can do up to 8 inches you would want the part # DTSTBM6800 instead.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Pin Removal for Hitch Ball Change on Andersen Rapid Hitch Ball MountIt sounds like the Rapid Hitch Adjustable Aluminum Ball Mount Kit - 2 Zinc Balls - 5-1/2" Drop, 6-1/2" Rise # AM3411 has dirt or debris binding the pin. Since this pin simply drops in place as you can see in the attached video, the best way to remove the pin is to use some penetrating oil around that pin and then using movement to allow the oil to find its way to the bound location. I recommend using a rubber mallet to give vibration and movement to the pin while trying to twist the hitch...

view full answer... - Aluminum Adjustable Trailer Hitch Ball Mount For a 2-1/2" Receiver I do have an option for you as we currently only carry the 2" Shank # AM3422 and not the 2-1/2" shank 3422-25 for the Rapid Hitch Adjustable, Locking, Aluminum Ball Mount Kit # AM3400. The Fastway Self-Locking, Adjustable 2-Ball Mount # DTALBM6625 has an aluminum shank and fits into a 2-1/2" receiver. It uses an integrated hitch lock so no receiver hitch pin is required. The same key is used to secure the adjustable ball mount to the 6" drop shank.

I contacted Andersen and they ship the ballmounts out with the ball portion on the shank backwards. Sometimes the ball will get wedged on there during shipping. According to Andersen you can use a rubber mallet and gently dislodge it.
