Easily stow the ball and mounting platform on this heavy-duty, dual-ball ball mount beneath your hitch for a sleek look when you are done towing. Tow up to 7,500 lbs with the 2" ball or 10,000 lbs with the 2-5/16" ball.

Note:
The B&W Tow & Stow adjustable ball mount lets you tow a variety of trailers with different tongue heights. Having both a 2" ball and a 2-5/16" ball allows for even more versatility, making this the ultimate go-to ball mount if you own multiple trailers.
To switch the hitch ball, simply remove the pin holding the balls in place and rotate the entire block that the balls are mounted on until the ball you want to use is on top. Then replace the pin to secure the block in place.
Adjusting the height of the ball is just as easy. Remove the pins holding the ball mount platform in place and slide the platform up or down along the shank to the desired position. Once you have found the correct height, reinsert the pins and replace the clips.
When you're not towing, you can flip the ball mount platform around and stow it beneath your hitch so that you won't bang your shins. Just remove the pins to slide the ball platform down along the channel and up the back side so that the hitch balls face towards your vehicle. Then replace the pins.
The Tow & Stow ball mount features a channel that runs along both sides of the shank. This channel not only allows you to slide the ball mount platform up and down to adjust the ball height, but it also prevents removal of the platform when the ball mount is installed, which will help prevent theft of your trailer.
A slot is cut into the adjustment channel near the top of the shank. To remove the ball mount platform from the shank you will need to remove the entire ball mount from your hitch. Then remove the pins that hold the platform in place. Flip the platform around to the stowed position on the rear of the shank, and then slide it up until the center pin lines up with the slot in the shank. Pull the platform out towards the rear of the shank until the pin pops out of the adjustment channel.
When the Tow & Stow is secured in your hitch receiver, you will not be able to remove the ball mount platform. This is because the slot in the shank is positioned in such a way that the collar on your hitch will block the pin on the platform from being able to leave the channel. Even if the pins holding the ball mount platform in place are removed, the platform will still be confined to this channel. So, as long as a hitch lock is used to secure the entire ball mount in your hitch receiver, and a coupler lock is used to prevent your trailer's coupler from being disengaged from the ball, your trailer will be secure.

Purchased for 2011 Toyota Tundra crew max 4x4 all stock wheels and suspension. It’s the best match for my truck. I went with the 5” drop model initially, but after installing it I realized my error in never needing that big of a drop. When matched to my trailers I would never be lower than 2” and having that extra 3+” of shank length really creates the potential to snag it on a sloped drive or curb. Per BW guide, they suggest 11” clearance and I was at 9” and that was without any load on it. So just a word of advice to fellow Tundra owners, unless yours is lifted considerably. So the 3” drop version, as well as the 5”, is manufactured beautifully. It looks great and it is a substantial piece of metal. Functional it is genius! The pins for the ball mount have spring clip pins and that would be my only area I will likely change out to a locking system. Simply to avoid losing one of those clips. I spoke with Sherry at e-trailer for my return and she was extremely helpful. As well, I talked with BW directly and they were equally as wonderful to speak to. I could not be happier with my purchase or the vendor or the manufacturer.
Used B & W before on a prior vehicle and loved it, so no surprises here except for the nice new addition of stainless steel clips. Thank you B & W. Great product as usual.
Fantastic price on an item I shopped around for. On top of being priced well, the customer support was very good. My order was upgraded to faster shipping for free and the communication was great. I would buy again and would recommend to friends.
Great products and easy to order. Great pricing to.
Well made product. You can tell that they take pride in what the do. Can't wait to give it a test.

My second B&W stowaway that I have bought, have them on both of my business trucks, absolutely love them, I think they are the best money can buy, MADE IN USA! No more changing hitches, fully adjustable for different trailer heights, great product!
Morgan - 06/01/2019You can immediately tell this hitch is of great quality. Very impressed.
Wish I could give it 6 stars. First off, the amount of time B&W spent making the packaging and the literature for this unit is astounding. Solid steel, very heavy duty with great looking welds. Adjustment is smooth and the pins slide in and out way better than I thought. Keep them greased and should be good for years
Exactly what we ordered and delivered when promised.
Hitch was exactly as described and arrived 1 day ahead of the estimated delivery date
Got the hitch quickly and was just what I ordered. Thank you
We bought this one year ago. Granted we live in Minnesota, with salt put down in the winter, but it was NOT suppose to rust and it was to with stand all elements. I have pictures of all the pins rusted, ball hitch starting to rust and we have to take a hammer and punch to get pins out. We haul fish houses and trailers all year long. I was hoping with your product we would not have to go through this again.
I really like the BW tow & stow drawbar. The two ball arrangement fits all 4 of my trailers. Stowed away under the bumper I never bust a shin or trip over it. Keep the pins greased Wirth some white lube and this thing works great.
I had purchased a B&W hitch several years ago when I bought my 08' F450. In 13' I purchased an F350 and purchased another B&W hitch. When I went to the local marine store to purchase a hitch for the 16' F250, I was informed that they did not carry the hitch in their store anymore. The clerk there tried to sell me a different style ball hitch, but I knew I wanted a B&W swivel ball hitch. I turned to the Internet and found etrailer.com and ordered the hitch. I am pleased with the service and comfort of using this hitch. Thanks Dean
I used to carry 2 or three hitches in my truck to make sure I could pull multiple trailers. Now I carry just one. I leave it in all summer, and take it in and out during the winter to keep it out of the salt. I would buy another one if I had the need.
Great company to order from online. Received my hatch in a very timely manner.
Package arrived as promised.
I LOVE MY B AND W HITCHES I HAVE TWO TRUCKS AND HAVE ONE EACH TRUCK. I ALSO BOUGHT ONE FOR MY SON AND HE LOVES IT ALSO. I LOVE HOW EASY THEY ARE TO ADJUST.LOVE THEM.
The BW hitch I received is of extremely high quality and was delivered ahead of schedule. Have already towed using the large ball. Setting the towing height is very easy. The best thing is that I can now leave this on my truck and hinge the balls up under the receiver. My shins greatly appreciate this feature!
I tow multiple trailers that all vary in height, and tow with a motorhome and 3/4 ton truck, this ball mount works great for all of them.
Love this product! Well built and looks awesome!
Excellent build quality, typical of B&W. Innovative design that adjusts and folds the hitch balls under the truck, no more leg wounds. B&W hit a home run here. I love this hitch!
