Most Popular Three Balls for 1997 Ford Expedition

Coming in at about 45 pounds, the D900 Curt Multi-Ball Adjustable Ball Mount is a BEAST! I purchased for use with my '08 Expedition towing either a small utility trailer w/ 1 7/8" ball or my DooLittle Bullitt cargo trailer w/ 2" ball. I needed 5 inches of drop (at least) for both. This is just about the only economical mount in which to accomplish this. Most if not all two ball mounts are 2" and 2 5/16" balls. Many reviews comment on the length that this mount sticks out and initially that was a concern of mine. Please see the Q&A of the D900 product page to address those issues. Short story: A hollow/tubular extension shank of (about or greater)15" reduces vehicle hitch capacity by 50%. The D900 shank and other components are SOLID steel. No reduced capacity. Specifically in my case; this extra length will allow me some personal maneuvering room when hooked up to the DooLittle and raising the lift gate of my Expedition. Clearance between raised lift gate and cargo trailer was about two inches using my old shank, and I should about double that. The anti-rattle tightening bolt is a nice touch. This is my first Etrailer purchase, but not my last.

VERY sturdy piece of hardware here. I was worried it might be a little flimsy piece of metal. Not so, this is a substantial hunk of engineering and I feel safe putting anything on the back of my Expedition! Fully adjustable and easy to install, just like it says!

Awesome hitch, I use it on a 2003 Ford F-350 and 2005 Ford Expedition, so much nicer just carrying one hitch for any trailer I tow compared to having all different hitches to deal with and lug around

B&W just makes a great product no matter what it is. This is no different. I have two other tow and stow and love the ease of changing heights and ball configurations.
