Video Transcript for Detailed Breakdown of the Pin and Clip for 2" and 2-1/2" Hitches

What's up, everybody. It's A.J. with etrailer.com Today, we're gonna be checking out this 5/8 hitch pin from Curt. So it's gonna be used for towing accessories, just a quick pin and clip to throw in there, to make sure this doesn't go anywhere. Let's check it out. You see I can just pull the clip off there, and remove our pin.

And this is what you're gonna get. It's gonna be great for those hitch-mounted accessories. You see, it just slides right there, on a two-inch by two-inch hitch. That way it stays in place. And it's gonna be good for, if you don't leave your accessories on there all the time, you're not really worried about security all that much, 'cause there are locking hitch pins you can get as well.

So that's if you're gonna keep it in the hitch for a long time, and you just don't wanna worry about it, but this is better for maybe you only use the ball mount every once in a while, you just wanna throw it in there and get started. You're gonna throw it right back in the back of the truck when you're done. Or maybe if you're in a state with stinger laws and you can't leave this on here all the time, you don't wanna leave it locked up, so you just pull that pin and clip, and throw it in the side. The pin and clip are gonna be steel construction, with a zinc finish on there. So that means it's not gonna rust or corrode if you leave it out in the elements.

So that's one less thing to worry about if you do leave your accessory in all the time. So this isn't just for ball mounts either, it's most hitch accessories, if they don't come with their own threaded pin or their own special brand of pin, it's gonna be one of these is what secures it to the hitch. So it doesn't hurt to have one, definitely nice for, like I said, a quick unpin, pull it out, swap out your accessory, or just put your accessory away when you're done with it. Not something you worry about leaving on there and locking up. Well, I think that does it.

Thanks for hanging out, and I hope this helps..

Cool to follow up on your product. The multi-ball works as it should. I bought it since I didn't know if the trailer I would get would be 2" or 2 1/4. I tow a 4,000 # trailer/race car with it.

It's a heavy piece to carry around, but I feel that it will last a good many years. I did make a spacer to cram into the receiver, so the hitch doesn't rattle as much.
Otherwise it's great..



by:

I will be completely honest and say that the hitch assembly that I bought for my Rogue fit perfectly and was easy to install. It was exactly what we needed to load the car down for a quick family road trip.
Now we bought a new car and will definitely be using your company before we do our next road trip.
Fast service, quality products and a perfect fit! Thank you!



by:

The products that I purchased was to complete a bigger order that I placed with eTrailer. The No-Drill Mount Bracket - Short 18140 fit as though it was dealer installed. I also purchased the trailer hitch, 4 prong wiring kit and adjustable ball mount from etrailor which installed in about an hour on my 2014 Jeep Wrangler.



by:

Just received my 80307 Hitch Extender for 2" Trailer Hitches - 8" Long. My newly upsized spare tire had been preventing the use of my hitch rack. Was very pleased with the eTrailer service and the ease of using the website. The excellent descriptions, photos, and even videos really help shopping for these types of specialty parts. Shipping went well and expediently. I trial fit the extension with my hitch rack today, and the photos are attached. It fit well and did the trick. I drove around and heard no rattles from it at all.



by:

We currently operate over 60 trucks. We purchase all our trailer needs from etrailer. They only sell quality products at fair prices. Their customer service is great! Buying anywhere else will cost you money!!!



by:

As described, but no information on the hole diameter on the website, so the Curt pintle mounting bolts don't fit without drilling.



by:

You get what you expected. It works.

I neeed to pull a trailer with my 2019 GMC Yukon. I found Etrailer.com and followed the instructions on determining the drop of the hitch, the instructions were spot on. I hooked up my trailer to my Yukon today, all was level and worked perfectly.

I had driven around to Napa, Lowe’s, Home Depot and Walmart, and nobody had the 9” drop hitch I needed. Came back to Etrailer, bought the 2” ball and pin, and the Curt 9” drop hitch. I received the items quickly.

Great website,

Thanks,

Craig



by:

Everything that we ordered came in on time and instructions were easy to follow up, have not tried the product yet but I’m sure it’ll all work just fine. And if I need anything in the future I sure will buy from you all again



by:

Item is exactly as described.



by:

Cotter pin arrived broken, actually missing a piece so it was definitely broken before shipping. Not impressed.



by:

Really amazing... I would say that this is the best online shopping experienced I have had ever. It was super easy to find on the website the trailer hitch that I needed and associated wiring.
I had ordered the wrong lock and etrailer called me to let me know. They updated the order.
THe product arrived a day early and was SUPER EASY TO INSTALL thanks for the great videos. The trailer hitch was installed in 30 minutes and fit perfectly to my highlander 2008. Really amazing company, service, products and all.
I also never really leave reviews. Here I had too cause it was all so great.

Still amazing and shiny : It loves to pull my boat !

I benefited greatly from the information at etrailer.com when outfitting my new Honda Pilot with a trailer hitch, wire harness, hitch, and ball.
Everything was high quality, the video instructions for installation were perfect.
I saved just over $1000 compared to what the new car dealer would have charged me to install the same items.

Youre a great company at etrailer.com George. Super website. The Curt branded products I bought from you are great after one year.



by:

The products (ball mount; hitch pin; spring) i received from etrailer.com are Curt branded. For me that means a first class hitch, accessories and great service from etrailer.com. eTrailer.com had the best total cost for the items I wanted. There C/S was outstanding.

Air lift installed on a 2018 Jeep Wrangler JKU with a 4” lift. Alison B put wanted to make sure I got the right bags and put me in touch with Air Lift who helped me get the correct bags. It was easier and quicker to remove rear springs and install the bags, just remember to apply lubricant to help with installation. Alison B was great to work with and extremely helpful in making sure I got the right parts. I have done business with etrailer in the past and will continue to use them in the future.



by:

Fantastic Product. Saved me from having to buy a brand new bike holder for my new car with a different hitch size.



by:

quick and accurate. great experience.

Worked as expected!

As long as your intention is quick install and removal of your ball mount this is perfect. No anti theft
Capability.

We had a large order and some were lost in transit. We notified etrailer of the missing items and they were EXCELLENT in communicating and helping rectify the situation. AWESOME customer service!

  • Does Curt Pintle Hook Include the Hitch Pin
    Everything you need to use the Curt Pintle Hook, part # C45910-15-20, is included except for a hitch pin. For a standard pin and cilp use part # C21500. If you prefer to lock the pintle hook to your hitch receiver use the Curt Lock Set, part # C23556, which includes 2 locking pins. One to secure the shank to your truck and one to secure the pintle hook to the shank.

  • Will Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver C14360 Fit a 2005 Ford F-150
    The # C14360 is for the 2006-2008 Ford F-150 without the factory receiver. For a Class IV hitch that is confirmed to fit your 2005 Ford F-150 I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C14357. This hitch has a 2" receiver with a maximum gross trailer weight of 10,000 lbs and tongue weight of 1,000 lbs. just like the # C14360. Keep in mind, if you have a factory hitch installed this will not fit your truck. If you plan on doing some towing and don't have wiring, I recommend the Curt...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for 1997 Jeep Cherokee
    The Draw-Tite Class I receiver you mentioned, part # 24827 is a vehicle-specific item that will fit a 2005-2010 Scion tC only. To see the various hitches available for a 1997 Jeep Cherokee, click the provided link. I would recommend the Curt Class III receiver, part # 13160. A Class III receiver will allow you to maximize the towing capacity of your Cherokee. The more common 2 inch receiver size will also allow you a better selection of hitch accessories like bike racks or cargo carriers,...

    You made a great choice with the B&W Tow & Stow, as it is considered by many to be the best ball mount in the industry due to its strength and anti-theft design of the platform. In order to determine which one is correct for your F-250, you will just need to take two different measurements to ensure you get the right one. Just measure from the ground to the top of the inside of your Ford's hitch receiver; next, measure from the ground to the bottom of your trailer's coupler and find the...

  • Hitch and Wiring Recommendations for a 2011 Honda Odyssey
    I definitely recommend going with a 2 inch receiver, like the etrailer.com # e98862. This will have a higher towing capacity than the 1 1/4 hitches and also gives you more options for accessories like bike racks or cargo carriers. Whereas the hitch refers to the vehicle, the 2 inch coupler refers to the trailer. This is a fairly standard size coupler and will utilize a 2 inch ball like # C40004 that would be installed on a ball mount like the Curt # C93KR, which would then be installed...

  • How to Determine the Amount of Drop Needed on Ball Mount for Towing Trailer
    When determining the amount of rise or drop you will need on the ball mount for your towing setup, you just need to take a couple simple measurements. The first, which you have already taken, is from the ground to the top of the trailer hitch receiver when your vehicle is parked and on level ground. The second is from the ground to the bottom of the trailer coupler when it is also parked on level ground. You did state you took a measurement when the trailer was attached to a different vehicle,...

  • Will the Kuat Magnetic Hitch Receiver Reducer Sleeve Work for Towing
    The Kuat Magnetic Hitch Receiver Reducer Sleeve part # KU93VR is not designed for towing so I don't recommend using this as such. Instead, I recommend the Curt Hitch Receiver Reducer Sleeve part # C45405 which will allow you to use your 2" hitch accessories inside your 2-1/2" receiver. Please note, you might also need a larger hitch pin for the 2-1/2" for which I recommend the Pin and Clip for 2" and 2-1/2" Hitches part # C21500.

    For smaller hitches like the Curt Class II Euro Style Drawbar with 1-7/8" Ball # C45571, the Curt Class I and II 1/2" hitch pin # C21403 would be needed to fit those euro hitches. Included are video resources with additional information to get you started.

We also want the Curt Bolt Kit for Pintle Hooks and Lunette Rings, # C48330. The only adjustable hitch combo that will fit your needs is the Convert-A-Ball Pintle Hook Combo with 3 Stainless Steel Balls - Bolt On - 25,000 lbs, # PH1.

  • Ball Mount with 7-1/2 Inch Drop For 2 Inch Receiver
    For reasons unknown, Curt actually rounds up to the nearest number for advertising their ball mount, which is confusing, but the true drop is 7-1/2 inches for the Curt Ball Mount for 2" Hitches # C45100. So this ball mount will work to get the drop you are looking for; along with the ball mount you will need a pin and clip or lock as well as a hitch ball. The complete list of parts is the following: - Curt Ball Mount for 2" Hitches - 6-1/4" Rise, 7-1/2" Drop # C45100 - 1-7/8" Hitch Ball...

It will fit your '19 Titan XD, even if you already have the factory hitch - it will simply fit below that hitch to give you a bigger, meaner hitch.

  • Will Curt RockerBall Work With Convert-A-Ball Ball Mount With 8 Inch Drop
    Ok, let's start with the Curt RockerBall, which is actually not going to be compatible with a cushioned ball mount, which the Convert-A-Ball is - for stability, the RockerBall can only be used with a standard ball mount. You would normally take the added height of the RockerBall into account, yes, but there isn't a standard ball mount with the drop you need to use the RockerBall, so I recommend instead going with the cushioned Convert-A-Ball ball mount and standard hitch ball.

  • Can Hitch Pin for Class III Hitch Be Used in Class I or II Hitch
    You cannot. A Class I or II hitch needs a 1/2 inch diameter hitch pin, while a Class III hitch uses a 5/8 inch diameter pin. For a 1/2 inch hitch pin, use # PC2. A locking version would be part # e98879.

I would instead suggest the Draw-Tite hitch # 75690 over the Curt hitch because if you decide to transport anything like a bike rack or cargo carrier in the future you will need to use a stabilization strap # 18050 per Curt's warranty and with the Draw-Tite hitch you won't. Next suggestion is we offer a Curt...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch And Wiring For 2011 Honda Odyssey
    That's a very good question. With a hitch being installed on a vehicle and the receiver tube sitting below the rear bumper, entering a driveway can cause the bike racks or what ever is attached to the hitch to scrape. Although there are no guarantees, there may be ways to help prevent some of that. Many things can cause scraping when attaching items to the hitch, like degree of incline, hitch height from the ground, height of trailer from the ground, etc. The trailer hitch I recommend...

Since you have a 10,000 lb capacity Demco Channel Tongue Trailer Coupler # DM13689-95, in order to match the weight capacity and get the 7" of drop you need, you will need an adjustable ball mount: - B&W Tow & Stow 2-Ball Mount # BWTS10040B (Black) or # BWTS10040C (Chrome) The Tow & Stow has a 2" and also a 2-5/16" ball, a 10,000 lb towing capacity, and up to 7" of drop so it matches everything you...

If you look at the attached video we that measurement listed at 15-1/2 inches so it is different from the 13 inch you referenced. For your 13 inch measurement you will then need a 5 inch rise. I recommend the B&W Heavy-Duty Ball Mount - 5" Rise, 6" Drop - 10-3/4" Long - 16,000 lbs # BWBMHD30014 or the Curt # C45336 and then you will need the # A-90 hitch ball. The pin and clip #...

    From a cost, versatility and appearance standpoint, I'd recommend the Draw-Tite Class III hitch, part # DT73RR. The hitch has a 3500 lb towing/525 lb tongue weight capacity, which would be perfect for carrying your bikes and for the occasional trash run. Once installed, the hitch will be mostly concealed behind the vehicle bumper, with only the receiver tube and the safety chain loops being visible from the rear of the vehicle.

The Curt Class III Drawbar # C45270 is a great option that fits in a 2" hitch and you can use either Pin and Clip # C21500 or Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # e98880 to secure it to your hitch. For a hitch ball, depending on your trailer's coupler you will need 1-7/8" Hitch Ball # C40017 or 2" Hitch Ball # 40038. In regards to Mounting Bracket # 18144...
