What's up, everybody It's AJ with etrailer.com. Today we're gonna be checking out this CURT hitch ball. We're gonna be putting it on our ball mount right here. It's gonna be a two and 5/16-inch size. Let's check it out. Hitch ball is gonna be an important part of your ball mount, so you're gonna make sure you get the right size for the coupler on your trailer, because it's what your trailer's gonna sit on.
So this is two and 5/16. And then the shank here is gonna be an inch diameter. So make sure that matches up with the ball mount you want to use. We'll drop that through. We got a lock nut and a regular nut that we'll put on there underneath.
Now I'm just gonna hand tighten it today. You're gonna want to make sure you torque it down to the right specifications when you get it. You can't just tow with a loose ball on the ball mount. So as you're tightening it down, you can see the flat sides on this, the base here of the ball. That's gonna be good for the wrench to get in there and hold that tight, so you can really tighten down the bottom to make sure it's torched.
This two and 5/16 hitch ball has a gross trailer weight rating of 7,500 pounds. It's gonna have a tongue weight rating of 750 pounds. So just keep that in mind with what you wanna haul. You want to go with the lowest common denominator in your setup. So the ball's rated at 7,500 gross trailer weight rating.
Your ball mount here is only rated at 6,000, and the hitch might be less than that. So whatever the smallest number is, go with that one, so you don't stress out your setup. The ball is gonna have a chrome-plated nickel finish on it. It's gonna hold up to the elements. If you leave it on the back of your vehicle all the time, it won't rust and corrode. Also, when you go to hook up to your coupler, it will scratch it up a little bit. That just comes with towing a trailer. That was a quick look at this two and 5/16-inch ball from CURT. Now just make sure you get those measurements on the ball mount you want to use it with, that shank being an inch diameter, and making sure your trailer is a coupler with a two and 5/16-inch ball that will work with it. I think that does it. Thanks for hanging out and hope this helped.
