They’re beat up! I mean I know they’ll get that way eventually but I shouldn’t receive them in sad shape. And the packaging….? How hard is your job? ??



by:

Pulls my heavy trailer with no flex
Great
product



by:

Works as described to soften the jostling as you go down the road. It made a noticeable improvement in noise as well as jerking of the truck back and forth. As always, eTrailer.com's service and shipping was outstanding.



by:

This hitch is exactly as advertised. It was easily found on your website and I sent in a question early on regarding the product before I ordered it and got an email response with the needed answer in less than 24 hours!



by:

The cushioned ball mount looks very strong and will work to cut down the trailer
noise while towing. The 2" ball also looked very strong and well made. Looking
forward to many miles of trouble free towing.



by:

The receiver hitch was exactly what I wanted and ordered. It was delivered promptly with no issues. I'll be back to etrailer when I need trailer parts or accessories. Thanks.



by:

I received my shipment on time and in good condition. The hitch and ball fit with the correct measurements I needed and looks to be built with high quality but I haven’t pulled my trailer with it yet to rate how it works. I hope to do that soon.



by:

Nice looking product. I have every confidence it will work as advertised. Paid a little more $ but it’s made in the USA.



by:

I received hitch very quickly. I will come here for all my trailering needs for certain in the future.



by:

Great product...never fail me after first year of use....I recommend!!



by:

Nice V5 drawbar. The shock absorbing works really well.



by:

This did what's the reviews said it would do. No complaints.



by:

Awesome



by:

Great product, feels like quality & does the job.

Delivery was prompt. Hitch is well made

Arrived today. Fast shipping, and thank you for that!
Seems to be a quality ball mount. Just what I needed to get the ball lower to tow my trailer. With this, now the top of the ball is at 16" where it needs to be. Custom built receiver on my old moving box van. Just need to weld on safety chain slots and paint it. Can't drop the lift gate with the receiver in (its pinned on both sides), but hey....I can tow now.



by:

Not that many non-adjustable option for a 12” drop and this one is the best! Love the cushion and it’s very strong. I put that to the test today when I got rear ended with it in the back of my truck. This thing saved the back of my Ram. Came right back to etrailer and ordered a new one!



by:

This mount was used to bring a Buick up to 19 inches to tow a M/C trailer. The rubber insert cushions starts and stops, and the mount worked as it should to trailer one or two motorcycles easily. Recommend this company and this rubberized insert mount!



by:

This is a ball hitch mount that is not a standard unit, problem I had I purchased a new p/u going from a 2500 series which stood higher to a 1500 series standing lower by 4" also lowering 3 1/2" towing a 4800 pound boat as we all know, needing to tow level, that wasn't going to happen, this ball mount did the trick, fits D.O.T. standards also more than what i needed for weight requirements



by:

Solid piece made in USA. Haven’t towed with it yet.
Great phone service. Quick shipping. Impressed by how well the drop hitch arrived, many times small dense items don’t fair well in transit. Due to double box plus great heavy box and extra attachments to the box this arrived great. Clearly etrailer has this down.



by:

Quick shipment, great heavy duty hitch. USPS took five days to deliver from our local hub, box was damaged. Your packing folks need to cushion on all sides of this heavy hitch, not lay on bottom of the box and pile on the packing. Need training.



by:

My usage of your hitch is a bit unusual, I think. I pull a two ton roller with my Ram and I've used your cushioned hitch to smooth out the process. The roller Lunette just dropped over a 2" ball and then banged and jerked on the ball neck. Check out the photos for my adaptation.. I can flip it over and use the 2" ball!

Have enclosed some photos.

The cushion is holding up very well and it takes a beating!!

Thanks



by:

I use this hitch when I pull my horse trailer to make the stop/start transitions as smooth as possible for the horses in the back. It works great. I also love that its a category IV hitch. Really heavy duty. My truck sits pretty high, and the amount of drop - 8" is perfect. I never worry about hitch failure travelling with my horses - they're a heavy load, and any failure would be a disaster.
E Trailer provided excellent service, and their shipping to Canada was prompt and hassle free. Way to go guys, keep up the great work!

I purchased the AMSC10 because I needed a 10" drop hitch to tow my lowboy enclosed trailer with my lifted Toyota Tundra.

I tried several other types of hitches with this towing combo and I was always disappointed. Mostly because of the fit/sloppiness of the ball mount into the receiver. This would cause a lot of noise and the feeling of the trailer "bucking" while hitting bumps and such. The other hitches that I tried were those cool aluminum ones, both a fixed one and an adjustable one. Although they were pretty, both left me very disappointed.

The shipping for this hitch from Etrailer was fast and efficient. I received emails informing me of my order status throughout the whole process. Upon receiving my AMSC10, I tested it out and found it to be a much nicer fit into the receiver.

Once I hooked up to the trailer and began to tow, the difference was extremely noticeable. This hitch is quiet, it doesn't buck, and in fact, comparatively, you wouldn't even know the trailer was behind you unless you looked.

I am actually really excited about towing with this hitch. I know it sounds goofy, because it is, but it makes the task so much more pleasurable with the cushion ball mount. I'm already thinking about buying the 8" drop for my normal trailers.

  • What Size is the Hitch Pin Hole of the Convert-a-Ball part # AMSC6HD
    The hitch pin hole diameter of the Convert-a-Ball part # AMSC6HD that you referenced is 5/8 inch which is the standard size for ball mounts like this that fit 2 inch hitches.

  • How to Pick Out Ball Mount for 2014 Toyota Sienna Towing Boat Trailer
    I wasn't able to find the coupler height of the trailer you are interested in so your best option would be to contact who you are buying it from and have them measure from the ground to the bottom of the coupler lip with the trailer level. When we installed the Draw Tite # 76112 on a 2014 Toyota Sienna like yours we found that it measured 12 inches from the ground to the top of the hitch opening. If you compare that 12 inch figure to the coupler height you get for your trailer you'll be...

  • Is it Okay to Use Cushioned Ball Mount with More Capacity than Needed
    It really doesn't hurt to have a ball mount with more capacity than needed. If anything it's just added insurance that the ball mount wouldn't fail. For 14k capacity cushioned ball mounts we have the part # AMSC2HD which has a 2 inch drop, part # AMSC4HD which has a 4 inch drop and part # AMSC6HD which has a 6 inch drop.

  • How Do You Orient Convert-A-Ball Ball Mount AMSC6HD To Be Used In Rise Position?
    You are correct. To get the 4-3/4" rise you need with the Convert-A-Ball Ball Mount for 2" Hitches - 4-3/4" Rise, 6" Drop - 14,000 lbs # AMSC6HD you were looking at you will insert the ball mount so the portion that the hitch ball installs into will be point up. You will need a hitch ball with a 1-1/4" diameter shank so I recommend the 2" # A-90 or 2-5/16" # 19286. I included videos for each of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.

  • Version of Convert a Ball Cushioned Ball Mount with 6 inch Drop That Fits 2.5 inch Hitch
    Yes, the # AMSC6HD could be used with a hitch reducer sleeve like you mentioned but since these types of adapters can cause a bit of movement your best option would be the version of this ball mount that is designed to fit 2-1/2 inch hitches directly part # AMSCV-6. This has the same 6 inch drop but has a higher 18,000 lb towing capacity.

  • Will a Cushioned Ball Mount Work with Surge Trailer Brakes
    The cushion inside of the Convert-A-Ball cushioned ball mount # AMSC4 would have only a slight affect on the surge coupler on your trailer. You may not even notice it. The cushion is very dense and the more pressure that is put on it the firmer it gets. It would take more force to compress that cushion than to actuate the surge coupler. Cushioned ball mount # AMSC4 has a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop but there are other options if you need a different rise or drop to tow the trailer level: #...

  • Can Hitch Ball Bushing F-2 Be Used With Convert-A-Ball Ball Mount AMSC6HD
    Yes, you can absolutely use the hitch ball bushing and ball mount together without any issues at all: - Hitch Ball Bushing - 1-1/4" to 1" # F-2 - Convert-A-Ball Ball Mount for 2" Hitches # AMSC6HD The slight gap with the small difference in height isn't going to be problematic in regards to tightening the hitch ball in the ball mount. You will still be able to fully tighten the hitch ball on the Convert-A-Ball ball mount without issue and retain the full capacity of a hitch ball like...

  • How to Match Different Heights of Hitch Ball and Trailer Coupler for Safe Level Towing
    Thank you for providing a photo of your trailer coupler. Trailers should always be level when hitched. If a trailer is out of level when towed it will tend to have more sway. I notice you have weight distribution (WD) lift brackets on your trailer frame. If you are using a WD system you can get a new shank that has enough height drop to let your trailer be level when hitched. Based on your 6-inch height difference between the hitch ball and coupler, you can use a WD shank with 5-6 inches...

  • Availability of a Ball Mount that Provides a 6 Inch Rise
    The Draw-Tite Ball Mounts, item # 4283, does not come in a 6 inch rise configuration. At this time we do not have a ball mount with a 6 inch rise available. We do offer two ball mounts with a bit higher rise. The Convert-A-Ball Cushioned Ball Mount for 2 inch Hitches, item # AMSC6HD, has a 6-1/2 inch rise, and the Convert-A-Ball Cushioned Ball Mount, item # AMSC8, has a 6-3/4 inch rise. You could get exactly a 6 inch rise by using the Diversi-Tech Aluminum Ball Mount, item # DTBM5600,...

  • Can Hitch Stabilizer be Used With Convert-A-Ball Cushioned Ball Mount For 2" Hitch
    Good question, and you can definitely still use a hitch stabilizer with the cushioned Convert-A-Ball Ball Mount for 2" Hitches # AMSC6HD. Even with a stabilizer there is still going to be some play in the hitch, so combining it with the cushioning of the Convert-A-Ball is going to be the best way overall to reduce any bounce or rattling, and I recommend going with the Brophy Stabilizer Clamp # RSCP. You can secure the ball mount to your hitch with Hitch Lock # e98880 and for a hitch ball...
