Very quick shipping. Hitch seems to be what I'm looking for.
by: Bryan 06/13/2023
Product arrived sooner than expected, packaged well and in good condition. Heavy duty hitch and well built.
by: Michael 01/09/2020
I found the heavy duty hitch I wanted locally, but etrailer was over $100 less with free shipping. Received the hitch in 4 days. Very pleased. Will be ordering my puck gooseneck ball from etrailer, as well.
by: Mike 10/27/2023
Great product that arrived within few days of ordering!
by: Kelly 12/04/2022
I got it as a surprise for my brother. It’s a far superior product for the one he had purchased. He tows his Skater race boat and a ball mount is no place to skimp on quality. If for any reason, which I doubt, I’ll exchange it for one for my truck
by: Larry H09/11/2019
The first time I have ever had a manufacturer wait until I had time to actually use a product before asking for a review. kudos!
This is a very wellbuilt hitch that has provided the strength and flexibility I needed.
Highly recommended!
by: Daniel06/29/2019
extremely heavy duty, I feel much more comfortable with the added strength of this drawbar and hitch while towing my sailboat across country. I have never seen anything this robust in any stores.
The adjustable height is perfect for me since i run two military trailers with lunette rings and one with the large ball.

works as you expect and great price for what you get. So pleased I bought another one for my work truck. VERY heavy duty.
by: Dennis12/08/2022
Great communication, quick shipping. Hitch is heavy duty and well built. Will handle the heavy stuff!

Excellent !!
by: Gary 02/06/2023
Nice hitch. Easy to make adjustments. No tools needed.
by: Anthony 11/02/2021
works Great! the only negative I would say is that If you run multiple trailers make sure you check your chains, you might need to extend them as this hitch does extend out a couple inch's more that a standard hitch.
by: Grant 01/09/2021
Perfectly goes with my F350 for safety towing big, heavy trailers.

Works great for smaller mobile homes and large equipment trailers! Paint has held up well.
by: Joseph10/12/2018
Hitch was perfect for my Dodge Ram 2500, with a higher weight rating than the truck can pull I have no worries when towing anything. The combination pintle/ball hitch is perfect for my needs with different trailers.
by: Eric04/18/2019
Love the hitch, but there is one hole setting that the allen set screw does not touch the receiver ball and does not allow the allen to take any slop out of the pins slide.
by: Daniel08/16/2019
Packaged VERY WELL, this is the second one I have purchased. One for personal use and one for work to tow a 14k lb generator. For the price, you cannot beat the rating and I like to go overkill since having extra capacity has never let me down yet.
Very easy/quick to change the height of the pintle/ball and I much prefer this to others on the market that requires a socket set and wrench to adjust. Great Quality!
by: Matthew01/05/2023
The packaging was good though items got beat up that were delivered!
by: Alan04/22/2020
Great service and great products. Only took 3 days to arrive got new adjustable 2 1/2 inch pintle that's a 20.000 pound hitch. Thanks so much
by: Stephen09/26/2019
etrailer is top notch to deal with. Ordered $500 worth of stuff. Received it in 2 days. Pintle / Ball combo is perfect. Super heavy duty, easy to adjust.
by: Emilio03/29/2022
I like the design. Very stout looking pintle hook.
by: Steve09/11/2019
Very nice how you can adjust height of hitch with pins. I pull a lot of different trailers that have different heights.
by: Jason 09/22/2022
Love E TRL
by: Don H03/07/2020
Best hitch I have even found and used in 50 years.
by: Richard02/21/2019
Very fast delivery. No Hassle. Product is performing as described. Best price on line. I highly recommend etrailer for any of your trailer parts & supply needs.
by: Tyler M11/29/2020
Most versatile hitch I have ever owned. I use this thing almost daily and it stands up well to the work I put it through
by: Tim04/05/2019
Ordered the hitch on the website got it in a timely manner, in fact the same day as we received our trailer and it was easy to install..
Thank you again!

See what our Experts say about this CURT Trailer Hitch Ball Mount
- Recommended Ball Mount for Use w/ a Trailer that has a Lunette Ring Yes, it will! The Curt Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Ball item # C45908 will easily connect to your portable silo's lunette ring and allow you to safely tow it. This ball mount fits a 2-1/2" hitch receiver, includes a 2-5/16" hitch ball, and has a 20,000 lbs capacity. I have attached a couple of pictures below along with an installation video so you can see this ball mount used with a trailer that has a lunette ring.

- Can Curt Pintle Hook Ball Be Locked for Standard Trailer Coupler?The Curt Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Ball - 2-1/2" Hitches - 20,000 lbs # C45908 can be latched and locked in the up position to allow you to use a standard coupler with the hitch ball. I've attached a video to assist.
view full answer... - Tongue Weight Capacity for Curt Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Ball # C45908The tongue weight capacity for the Curt Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Ball # C45908 that you referenced is 2,000 pounds. I have attached a short video review of this product that you can also take a look at.
view full answer... - Can Curt Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Ball # C45908 be Used in Rise PositionYes, if you wanted to use the Curt Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Ball # C45908 that you referenced in the rise position you certainly could. You'd flip the hook combo as well as the shank upside down and you'd be set.
view full answer... - Length From Hitch Pin Holes to Center of Ball on Curt Pintle HookI went out to our warehouse to measure the Curt Pintle Hook # C45908 to get the measurements you asked for. I put it together and used digital calipers to ensure this measurement was as accurate as possible and found that it measured approximately 13.7" from the center of the furthest hitch pin hole to the middle of the ball and 12.7" from the center of the closest hitch pin hole to the center of the ball.

- How to Remove Ball from Pintle HitchIt will depend on which pintle hitch you have. Some like the Curt # C45908 have removable trailer balls, some do not. If the trailer ball has a nut on the underside of the pintle, the ball should be removable. It it does not, the ball isn't removable. If the ball on your pintle is held on with a nut and lock washer, once you remove the nut you should be able to rap the end of the shank a few times with a dead blow hammer at which time the ball should come loose.
view full answer... - Will the Replacement 2" and 2-5/16" Dual-Sided Ball C45923 Fit the Curt Pintle Hook C45908Yes, the Replacement 2" and 2-5/16" Dual-Sided Ball part # C45923 will work with the Curt Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Ball part # C45908.
view full answer... - Adjustable Height Pintle Combo with 2-5/16 inch Ball, 2.5 inch Hitch, and Rated for 20kThe best and only option we have that covers everything you need is the Curt Pintle Hook Combo part # C45908 which fits the 2-1/2 inch hitch size, has a 2-5/16 inch hitch ball, is adjustable in height, and has a 20k capacity.
view full answer... - Can Different Sized Hitch Balls be Used with Curt Pintle Hook # C45908Yes, the 2-5/16 inch hitch ball that comes included with the Curt Pintle Hook # C45908 can be swapped out with a different sized ball that features a compatible shank. For a 2 inch hitch ball to use with this assembly the Curt # C48820 will work perfectly. We also have the 1-7/8 inch # C48810 if you think you would ever have a need for a smaller hitch ball. I have attached a short video demonstration on the Pintle Hook that you can also take a look at.
view full answer... - Is the Blue Ox BXH20262 The Same As Curt 45908The Blue Ox Adjustable Ball Mount with Pintle Hook for 2-1/2" Hitch # BLU25XR and the Curt # C45908 are identical. According to Blue Ox and Curt they don't make the parts for each other so in theory it is not the exact same part, just the same design and specs.. Since there is no difference between the two I would go with whichever option has the better price.
view full answer... - Pintle Hook Ball Mount Compatible With Buyers Products 3" Lunette Ring The Buyers Products 3-Position Adjustable Lunette Ring with 3" Heavy-Duty Channel # 337B20143 will fit correctly with a Curt Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Ball # C45908.
view full answer... - Higher Capacity Adjustable 2 inch Hitch Ball Pintle Hook for 2-1/2 inch HitchThe Curt SecureLatch Pintle Hook and Mount part # CU4759FR has a 2 inch ball, fits a 2-1/2 inch hitch and is adjustable in height. This also has a 20k capacity.
view full answer... - Is an Adapter Needed to Use the Curt Pintle Hook # C45908 with 3 Receiver on a 2017 Ford F-250Since your 2017 Ford F-250 has a 3" trailer hitch receiver you will need an adapter to use the Curt Pintle Hook and 2-5/16" Hitch Ball # C45908 because it has a shank made to fit a 2-1/2" hitch receiver. For your application I recommend the B&W Reducer Sleeve # BWRHXA2183 as it has a 5/8" diameter hole for the hitch pin which matches what comes with the Curt pintle hook. This will reduce the 3" inner dimensions of your receiver to the 2-1/2" that you need.The hitch pin and clip that comes...
view full answer... - Locking Pin Sets For Curt Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Ball # C45908I have a couple options you can use to secure the Curt Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Ball # C45908 to your receiver. First is the Curt Lock Set # C23556 which includes one hitch/receiver lock pin and the 2nd keyed alike lock for replacing one of the height adjustment pins. We also have the InfiniteRule Locking Pins # IR57FR which includes all 3 locking pins keyed alike. These pins are stainless steel with a 42,000lb sheer rating.
view full answer... - Is there a Convert a Ball Hitch with Pintle Hook and 2 inch ball Capabilities Available?I checked with Curt who confirmed you can replace the 2 5/16 inch ball with a 2 inch ball # C48820 as needed with the Curt Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Ball - 2-1/2" Hitches - 20,000 lbs # C45908. If you prefer the Convert-A-Ball option like you mentioned, the Pintle Hook Combo with 3 Stainless Steel Balls - Bolt On - 25,000 lbs Item # PH1 is my recommendation. The hitch comes with 3 ball sizes: 1-7/8", 2" and 2-5/16" and has a towing capacity for 2" and 2-5/16" hitch balls between 3,500-10,000...
view full answer... - Recommended Ball Mount for 2-1/2 Inch Hitch With Pintle Hook and Hitch Ball AttachmentIt sounds like you are looking for an adjustable ball mount that has both a hitch ball and pintle hook combo. If that is the case then we have the perfect option for you in the Curt Pintle Hook part # C45908 which comes with a pintle hook/ball combo and can be used with a standard trailer coupler when the Replacement 2" and 2-5/16" Dual-Sided Ball part # C45923 is added. This setup is designed specifically for 2-1/2" trailer hitch receivers and offers up to 6" of drop. Unfortunately,...
view full answer... - Is There A Pintle Adapter Available For A B&W Tow And Stow Ball Mount In A 3 HitchThough I may have another option available for you, the B&W Tow & Stow 3-Ball Mount # BWTS30049B is not available with a pintle hitch as of yet. With that being said, there are actually no current options available for the 3" hitches being used, so you will need to use a reducer, like the # 58552, if you do not already have one. This will allow you to go one of two ways. First will be the Curt Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Ball - 2-1/2" Hitches # C45908. This is rated to 20,000 pounds and...
view full answer... - Availability of Combination Pintle Hook Hitch for 2-1/2 Inch Hitch ReceiverIt sounds as if you're needing a Combination Pintle Hitch for a 2-1/2 inch receiver, is that correct? You can use the # 337RM62516 you'd looked at along with a reducer sleeve like part # BWRHXA2182, which would certainly be your most cost-effective option. If you'd prefer an option that's dedicated for a 2-1/2 inch receiver, I'd recommend the height adjustable # C45908 from Curt. I've linked to product description videos for the products I've recommended.
view full answer... - Availability of an Adjustable Pintle Hook Mount for a 2-1/2" Receiver With 20,000LB Trailer CapacityI do have a couple options for you as the Pro Series Adjustable Pintle Hook Mounting Plate # 63072 is only available for a 2" receiver with 14K weight capacity. We do have the Curt Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Ball # C45908. This is rated for up to 20,000lbs with either the ball or pintle mount and fits 2-1/2" or 3" lunette rings. The Lock Set # C23556 will allow you to secure this to your receiver. If you prefer to have a more comfortable ride when towing you will want to use the Gen-Y Torsion...

I have a solution for you: Blue Ox Trion Tow Bar - Car Mount - 2-1/2" Lunette Ring - 20,000 lbs # BX7520P. I recommend the blue ox if you need to handle 20,000 pounds. If you do not have a hitch receiver or pintle hook I recommend getting the following items: TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class V - 2-1/2" and 2" # TLF1003-30.

There isn't a step for the Blue Ox Adjustable Ball Mount with Pintle Hook for 2-1/2" Hitch part # BLU25XR. That said, if you switch to the Curt Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Ball part # C45908 you can then use the Step for Curt Adjustable Channel Ball Mounts part # C45909.
