Towing trailers with different coupler sizes just got easier thanks to the 180 Hitch 2-ball mount. This ball mount features stainless-steel 2" and 2-5/16" hitch balls on opposite ends of the ball mount platform. Switching to the opposite ball is fast and easy - pull out the dual pins and remove the platform from the shank and simply flip over the platform so that either the 2" or 2-5/16" hitch ball is on top. Slide it back up along the shank to the desired height and reinsert the dual pins, hitch up, and go! Because both balls are contained on the platform, you won't have to keep track of separate balls that must be completely removed and installed each time you need to switch trailers. A dual-sided hitch ball with a 1-7/8" and a 2" hitch ball (WS28CR - sold separately) is also available.
This ball mount's convenient stowable design keeps the ball mount platform out of your way when you're not towing. To stow the ball mount platform, simply pull out the dual pins and remove the platform from the shank. Place the ball mount platform on the backside of the shank facing your vehicle. Reinsert the dual pins to attach the platform to the shank. The 180 Hitch can be used in either the drop or rise position to best suit your application.

Hi, everybody. Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a look at this Weigh Safe 180 Hitch with Two Ball Mount for your Two Inch Hitch Receiver. This 180 hitch is going to slide into your two inch hitch receiver. And this is going to give you a two inch and a two and five 16ths inch double-sided stainless steel tow ball, making switching the tow ball size is very easy. This is also going to give you a maximum of a 10 inch drop in this orientation.
And then when you flip this over, you'll get a maximum 11 inch rise. And then you'll have incremental adjustments of one inch. And so this is going to give you that height adjustability that you are going to need to tow trailers with different heights with the same vehicle. Now this does have a gross towing weight with the two and five 16ths inch hitch ball of 12500 pounds. The two inch ball is 8000 pounds.
The maximum tongue weight is 1500 pounds. This hitch is constructed of aircraft grade aluminum that's gonna give you that superior strength and durability. The solid block construction is gonna give you greater strength than some hollow steel options, while maintaining a light weight. So this is going to be rust proof. This finish is going to remain clean and looking good.
It's gonna stand the test of time. The stainless steel hitch balls are obviously gonna be corrosion resistant, so this is gonna be a great option to consider. If you're gonna be around the water frequently, it's gonna be great to use with your boat trailer, for instance. And this does feature a dual pin slider lock that's going to make adjusting the height and switching the tow ball sizes very easy. And I just wanna give you a brief demonstration of how easy this is gonna be to swap out.
As you can see, this does include this rubber cover that's gonna protect the lock core from dust and debris. So I went ahead and removed that cover. And you are going to get four keys here. And the keys are all gonna be keyed alike, so you can use the keys for the dual pin lock or the hitch lock, which I'll talk about in just the next minute or so. So I went ahead inserted the key and I turned that. I'm just gonna go ahead and slide the pins out here. So this is dual pin, and the pins are aluminum. The housing is aluminum. And then that lock is a plated steel lock. So this is going to resist corrosion as well. And so you can just see how easy this is going to be to slide this up and down. And then if you want to change the ball size, you'll just slide it off, and then replace it after you flip it over so now I can use the two and five 16ths inch hitch ball. Then another nice feature is you can stow this as well. So if you don't need to use the balls at that time and you don't need tow, then you can just slide this behind, and then line up those holes and replace the pins. And so you're not gonna have to worry about banging your shin or anything like that when you're walking behind the truck because that ball mount will be stowed away. So that's a really nice feature that's included here. So as you see, you're not going to be struggling at the back of your vehicle, changing the the tow ball size or adjusting the height that you need. Everything slides very smoothly. And so I'm just gonna line up these holes here and replace my pins, and then turn that key. And then now we're locked into place. I'm gonna replace my cover there. So as I mentioned, you are going to get a total of four keys. They are keyed alike, and this does include this hitch lock here. So a very simple operation. Again, turn key, and just pull that off like that. And what I like about this lock is the head is now locked, and so you're not going to need to keep the key in the head of the lock to lock this. So I'm just gonna run this back through. And then as you can see, that just secures back into place and then you'll just need to keep to unlock it again. So I do like that feature, where you don't need to keep the key in the lock to lock this back up. As you can see, we do have a cap there to keep that keyway clear and free of debris. So that's a great option that's included with this. So this is definitely going to be secured on the back of your vehicle. And just some measurements for you that I took before our time together. Measuring from the center of the hitch ball to the center of our first hitch pin hole is gonna be right at about eight and a half inches. And then the second hitch pin hole, about nine and five eighths inches. And then the measurement from the second hitch pin hole to the end of the shank, about one in seven eights inches. So again, everything will be keyed alike here. One key for everything. Then you'll get a total of four keys. This is V5 and J684 certified. And I think that's gonna wrap up our look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.

It's exactly what I was expecting. Good quality and fast shipping.
Beautiful piece. Exceeded my expectati ons
looks good on the tk should work just f ine
Super happy with the hitch..highly recommend. Half the weight of a steel hitch. We are working
Fast shipping as always! While I haven't had the chance to use this hitch yet, it looks like a high-quality product straight out of the box. I plan to test it this weekend and will update this review if I remember after putting it to use.
This isn't the cheapest hitch on the market, but it is certainly high quality. The carrier slides as it should as does the ball. The locks for the receiver and the carrier are keyed the same and they give you 4 keys. I personally like the double pinned carrier instead of a single pin as some of the others do. I have only had it a week but, I'm impressed so far.
