• Recommended Ball Mount for 2 Inch Ball with No Rise and No Drop
  For a 2 inch hitch ball that has no rise and no drop, I recommend the Curt Solid 2-Ball Mount for 2" Hitches - 2" and 2-5/16" Balls - 10K - Black # C45660. For your anti-rattle, I recommend the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 2" Trailer Hitches # RM-061 which will give you the anti-rattle and then # e98880 for a locking hitch pin. If you want a 3 ball option I recommend # C62KR.

• How to Easily Transport a 10 Kayak with a 2013 Chevrolet Equinox
  I have a 2010 Chevy Equinox and I can tell you that a 10 foot kayak will not fit in the back of my vehicle so unfortunately I don't think you are going to be able to fit one in your 2013 Equinox. Maybe if you don't have a passenger and you put the front passenger seat down too, but not just with the back seats. If sounds like you are needing an easy way to load your kayak as lifting it up to a roof rack can be challenging. We do have an alternative solution for you though. This involves...

• Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13381 Height When Installed On a 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan
  When we installed the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13381 on a 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan in our shop the top inside of the receiver tube sat at 11-1/2" tall. Using a Curt Multi-Ball Mount # C62KR that does not have a rise or drop would put your coupler height at 12" to the bottom of the coupler. Without knowing the height of your 14 foot john boat trailer when it sits level I cannot tell you if you will need a rise style ball mount like the Curt Ball Mount # C45070. If you can tell me...

• What Ball Mount to Use With no Drop
  I applaud your creativity and that'll work but we can simplify it for you as well. Since you have only 1/8" drop you can just use a ball mount with no drop (or rise) so you don't have to put together multiple parts: - Curt Hollow Shank 2-Ball Mount for 2" Hitches - 2" and 2-5/16" Balls # C45002 This is a straight ball mount with no rise or drop, and since it only has 2" and 2-5/16" hitch balls if you need a 1-7/8" ball instead you could use the tri-ball mount # C62KR. Along with either...

• Is the Curt Adjustable Multi-Ball Ball Mount Compatible with a Surge Coupler
  Yes, you can use the Curt multi-ball adjustable ball mount # D900 with a trailer that has surge brakes. There may be a little more movement associated with this ball mount since it is pinned in so many locations but that would not cause any problems with a surge coupler. If you want something more stable then you could use something like # C62KR but it is not adjustable. Or for something that would be more stable and still offer adjustability you could use # BWTS10048B.

• How to Choose the Correct Hitch Ball Size
  A 2" hitch ball like part # A-90 is pretty standard but you really need to know what size hitch ball your coupler is compatible with. It should be stamped on the trailer coupler itself. If you already have a ball mount then you need to make sure that the shank of your hitch ball is compatible with that as well. The # A-90 has a shank with a 1-1/4" diameter and is 2-5/8" long. For people who will be towing different sized trailers it is a lot easier to have multiple hitch ball options....

• Ball Mount Recommendation For Trailer Hitch and Trailer Coupler with Same Height
  Since your hitch and coupler height are the same, I recommend using a ball mount with a straight shank, like the Curt # C62KR. This ball mount features a 1-7/8 inch, 2 inch, and 2-5/16 inch balls. The straight shank on this ball mount will allow you to tow your utility trailer level. If you don't like the idea of a multi-ball mount, you can use a ball mount with a 2 inch drop, like the Convert-A-Ball Ball Mount 3/4 inch Rise or 2 Inch Drop # AMSC2, with a hitch ball that has a rise, like...
