Video Transcript for Ultimate Overview of the Brophy Ball Mount for 2-1/2" Hitch

Today we'll be taking a look at the Brophy Ball Mount for a 2-1/2" Hitch. Now, this is going to serve as the connection point between our vehicle and our trailer. We'll have our ball mounted here. It's going to attach to our hitch via a hitch pin. Now, both of those items the ball, and the hitch pin are sold separately. You can find a lot of options at etrailer.com.

You just want to be sure to check the weight rating on both of those items. Make sure that they're up to the task of whatever you're hauling since you're really only as strong as your weakest link.Our ball mount has a nice sturdy steel construction with this black powder coat finish. Have a hollow shank there, and you can use this in the rise or the drop position. You'll just have to have your ball mounted to the side that you want it to be. So, if you want it in the drop position you'll have your ball mounted here, the rise mounted up there.

Now, this is going to work again for your 2-1/2" by 2-1/2" hitches so that's going to be typically your class four and five and up. The gross towing weight is 10,000 pounds with this, and our tongue weight is 1,000 pounds. The distance between the center of the ball hole and the center of the hitch pin hole is just over 13", 13-1/4. Our drop from the inside of the hitch opening to our platform is 2", and the rise from that same point, the inside of our hitch opening, is 3/4".The diameter of that ball hole is 1-1/4". The platform is 3/4" thick, and the pinhole accepts a 5/8" diameter pin.

That's going to do it for our look at the Brophy Ball Mount for a 2-1/2" Hitch.

This hitch is the perfect length and load capacity to do some local hauling of our camper. I was tired of lugging around the 100#+ weight distribution hitch and the Brophy was the only one I could find that met all the requirements of length, hitch size, tongue weight, and total load with the correct ball height for my Silverado 2500HD. I still use my WD hitch for highway hauling, but 99% of the time, the Brophy is doing the work.

  • 2 1/2” Ball Mount Extension for Tailgate Clearance
    I have a solution for your tailgate clearance issue but we do not have a 2 1/2" extension that doesn't reduce that is also around the length you are looking for. I recommend going with an extended ball mount. Item # BZ20 is the Brophy Ball Mount for 2-1/2" hitches it has 3/4" rise or 2" drop and is 13-1/4" long. I have linked a review video.

  • 10to 12 Extended Ball Mount For Class-5 Hitch With 2 Receiver?
    In your question you state that you have a Class-5 hitch, and they come with a 2-1/2” receiver opening. You also state that you have a 2” receiver. I will offer a ball mount solution for either size receiver. For a 2” receiver you can use the 13-1/4” long Brophy # BM20 with 2” drop, or the 14-1/4” long Curt # D-28 with 6” drop. For a 2-1/2” receiver you can use the 12-1/4” long Convert-A-Ball # AMSCV-6 with 6” drop, or the 10-1/2” long Draw-Tite # 45291 with a 7-3/4” drop, or the 13-1/4”...
