Features to know about
Keeps Your Trailer Level: 2-3/4" Rise for a Balanced Tow
When your trailer sits level, everything tows smoother and safer. This mount’s 2-3/4" rise helps line up your coupler with low or mid-height trailers so your setup looks right and pulls steady. The 2" x 2" shank fits standard receivers, and at 8" from pin hole to ball center, it’s built for consistent height and stability on the road.
Ready to Tow Right Away: Pre-Torqued 2" Hitch Ball
No tools, no extra steps. The hitch ball comes pre-torqued to factory specs, so you can slide it into your receiver, secure it with the included pin and clip, and start towing. It’s one less setup step to worry about—just hook up your trailer and go.
Built to Last: Steel Construction with Double-Layer Protection
Road grime and weather can wear down a hitch fast, but this one’s made to hold up. The steel shank has an e-coat under a matte black powder coat for two layers of rust protection. On top of that, the ball and hitch pin have a black nickel finish that resists corrosion while keeping a clean look season after season.
Dependable Strength for Everyday Hauling: 7,500 lbs GTW Rating
Whether you’re moving a small camper or weekend gear, you can count on solid performance. This fixed mount handles up to 7,500 lbs gross towing weight and 750 lbs tongue weight. The simple one-ball design keeps everything tight and rattle-free while you tow.
Smooth Hookups Every Time: Tight Fit That Reduces Rattle
Nobody likes extra movement in the receiver. The hitch pin fits snugly to minimize play between the shank and receiver, giving you a quieter ride and smoother start every time you pull out. It’s a small detail that makes every hookup feel solid.

I havent gotten to tow my boat yet because I am switching from a bumper hitch and am still getting wires extended and safety chains longer. BUT this hitch is amazing quality compared to any crap on amazon and the nickel finish looks great. 100% recommend.

Just what I needed. Measured from the floor to the center of the ball, 18 1/2 inches for towing a u-haul trailer. This is what they say for hauling their trailers flat.

Worked great. Used it with our 2019 Honda CRV to tow a U-Haul trailer 650 miles. No issues. Also, initially I thought it was too much rise, but I'm glad I got it because I had underestimated how much lower the car was to the trailer especially when loaded. There was a little clunking but to be expected when towing.

It looks like it'll work great, but along with my trailer hitch that was also damaged when I received it, this ball mount has some nicks in the paint that I now have to fix before I install and use it. I use this to tow my boat and rust is my biggest enemy as I launch in saltwater.

Compared to other receivers I have seen, this one tends to be a bit closer the the bumper. I am not sure if it's the receiver slot on the hitch or the receiver itself. Use a longer receiver if using in this configuration (21 Chevy Trax). Construction and material.have a high quality matte finish which appears to resist corrosion more. Time will tell

See what our Experts say about this etrailer Trailer Hitch Ball Mount
- Recommended Hitch and Wiring for 2025 Toyota SiennaHi Greg; we do carry a hitch and wiring for your 2025 Sienna. The best hitch is the etrailer # e56RR. This has a 2" receiver, bolt-on installation, and a matte black powder coat finish. It also comes with a limited lifetime warranty. For wiring you can use the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C53VV which has a plug and play installation. You will also need a ball mount like the # e38NR to complete your setup.

- Can Cargo Box and Bike Rack Fit on a Malone LowBed MicroSport TrailerHey Tanya, thanks for reaching out! To tow your trailer you'll need a ball mount with a 2" rise and for that I recommend going with the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # e38NR. This gives you a 2-3/4" rise but that will still work for your application. The Malone LowBed MicroSport Trailer # MAL25FR can accommodate the Malone Pilot Trailer Bike Rack # MPG2100, but while the Storage Trunk # MPG481 will physically be able to fit inside the frame of your trailer, I don't believe you'll be able to...

We did originally have the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118784 listed as a fit for the 2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz. However, we had to remove it from our fit guide after hearing from some customers whose vehicles did not have the connector needed for installation. We also noticed Hyundai changed the factory wiring part number from the 2024 model year to the 2025 model year, which tells us there...
view full answer... - Does Curt Hitch for 2025 Toyota Crown Signia Need 4-Way Mounting BracketHey Blaise, with the Curt hitch # C35MJ installed on your 2025 Crown Signia it doesn't have a 4-way bracket built in like you noticed but the Curt kit part # C59236 would actually get stored in the rear cargo area of your vehicle when not in use so a bracket wouldn't be needed. With that said this is a universal style wiring kit and it does require splicing. I am sure we will get a plug and play option at some point but we don't have it quite yet. The Curt ball mount part # C45155 is...

I currently own a 2009 Prius so definitely get where you're coming from, and there are 2 main things you'll want to consider when choosing a hitch; ground clearance, and strength. The best hitch to address both of these concerns is the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7178 because it has a stronger tongue weight rating than the other options, and it has a...
view full answer... - How to Choose Correct Ball Mount Rise/Drop for a 2022 Nissan Rogue with etrailer Hitch ReceiverThanks for reaching out and your purchase of the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e93ZR for your 2022 Nissan Rogue! To choose the correct ball mount you'll need to figure out the difference between the height of your hitch receiver and your trailer coupler. To measure your hitch receiver height you'll measure from the ground to the top inside of your receiver. When we installed this on a 2021 Rogue we found this height to be 11-3/4". Then for your trailer coupler height you'll need to...

At this time there is not any "plug-n-play" wiring for the 2025 Hyundai Tucson, I am sure the aftermarket guys are working hard to come up with a wiring harness. The vehicle must have had electrical changes from the 2024 to the 2025, so you will have to check back. If you wanted to splice in a harness, you could go with the Curt Powered Tail Light Converter with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C59236....
view full answer... - Availability of Ball Mount with 4 inch Rise with 2 inch Hitch BallHey Art, we can help but we don't have a ball mount that has the ball pre-installed and torqued in the configuration you are wanting. So you would want to start with a ball mount that has a 4 inch rise like the TowSmart # TS78FR and then add a 2 inch ball to it with the part # 40038 and you'd have what you are looking for.
view full answer... - Affordable Ball Mount Recommendation for Towing with a 2019 Hyundai KonaHey Paul, I recommend using the etrailer Ball Mount w/ Pre-Torqued 2" Ball # e38NR to tow with your 2019 Hyundai Kona because it has a 2-3/4" rise which should help get you in the level range for most trailers. I'm also attaching a helpful article about choosing the correct ball mount height to make sure you get the correct one for your application.

With any aftermarket hitch there is the possibility that the hands free tailgate sensor will be covered. So if you install B&W Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # BW47BR on your 2025 Toyota RAV4 it is possible to lose full capabilities of your hands free tailgate, in our experience you can usually maneuver your foot to the right or the left of the receiver to have the sensor work. It would be nice...
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch and Wiring for 2026 Toyota Sienna HybridHey Corrina! We actually have hitches and wiring available right now for your 2026 Sienna Hybrid. For a hitch I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C22UR. This is a Class III hitch with a 2" receiver and a bolt-on installation. The max tongue weight/gross towing weight is 350/3,500 lbs which is in-line with the capabilities of your Sienna. The only bike racks that won't work with this hitch are vertical hanging bike racks. Then for wiring, you can use the Curt T-Connector Vehicle...

The etrailer Ball Mount # e38NR has a 2-3/4" rise but there are other options. The best thing to do is measure your hitch and the trailer. Get your hitch height measured from the ground to the top of the receiver opening, then the coupler height. Then use the following formula: Hitch Height (A) - Coupler Height (B) = Rise/Drop (C) If you can get me these measurements, or tell me how much rise you need, I can see what the best...
view full answer... - What Hitch do I Need for My 2026 Honda CR-V Hybrid Sport?Hello Wilfredo, Thanks for writing in! The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13397 will fit your 2026 Honda CR-V Hybrid Sport. It fits all models of the 2026 Honda CR-V and gives you a 2" receiver, which is a great choice for using a 2-bike rack. Personally, I would go with our etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98848 instead. I like the matte black finish a little better because it gives the hitch more of an OEM look and helps it blend in with the fascia nicely. Either hitch will work...

I really like how our hitch is the only one that comes in the Matte Black finish. It really gives it that nice OEM look. When it comes to the wiring, it depends on what you’re using it for. If you just need wiring for a hitch-mounted accessory, or a light trailer that doesn’t have brakes, you’ll want the Curt T-Connector Vehicle...
view full answer... - Best Hitch for Towing a Trailer with a 2024 Ford ExplorerHey Fischer, The best trailer hitch for your 2024 Ford Explorer is the etrailer # e29YR because it has a hidden crosstube and a matte black finish. This means you'll be getting a sleek looking hitch that also does a better job at hiding scratches than the hitches with a standard glossy finish. To wrap up your towing setup I recommend picking up the T-One Wiring # 118599 and the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # e38NR. Whenever Tekonsha wiring is available I always recommend going that route as...

Trailer hithes are often capable of handling more than the vehicle they're designed for. Even though a hitch like the etrailer # e66AR has a max gross trailer weight of 4,000 lbs you're still limited to the 2,000 lb towing capacity of the vehicle. You will also need wiring # C59236 and a ball mount # e38NR to complete your setup. What kind of trailer...

At 500 lbs there won't be a hitch that can handle holding your motorcycle on the rear of your Model 3. The highest tongue weight capacity is on the Stealth Hitch # 391TES317T which is maxed at 350 lbs. Even if the hitch could handle the weight of your motorcycle and carrier I doubt the vehicle tongue weight is rated that high. I'm sorry to say the only option is to install a hitch and wiring so you can tow a small trailer. The Stealth Hitch...
view full answer... - Recommended Ball Mount for a 2011 Toyota PriusHey Michael thanks for the question. We do indeed carry ball mounts and bike racks that will work with your 2011 Toyota Prius. It sounds like you already have a hitch but what I am going to need you to do is measure the square receiver you referenced. It will either be 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" or 2" x 2". This measurement will determine what size ball mount and bike rack you will need. I have listed both options below; 1-1/4" Receiver - etrailer Ball Mount w/ Pre-Torqued 2" Ball item # e47DR 2"...
view full answer... - Recommended Hitch for a 2024 Chevrolet TrailblazerI sure can Maria. I've got all the parts you need but let me start out by recommending a different hitch and telling you why I think you don't want the Curt item # C94UR for your Trailblazer. The Curt item # C94UR is a 1-1/4" hitch. That means you're going to be extremely limited on what options you have for accessories like bike racks and cargo carriers. 1-1/4" accessories have lower capacities and are often time more expensive because there are less options. While you'll save money today,...
view full answer... - What Hitch Ball Size For 2023 Lance 1475 Travel TrailerHey Mike, The hitch ball size should match the trailer's coupler, and per Lance, your 2023 Lance 1475 travel trailer uses a 2" hitch ball. So you'll just want to match the diameter of the hitch ball's shank to that of your ball mount. For example, if your ball mount has a 1-1/4" diameter hitch ball hole you could use the 2" Hitch Ball # CB26C, or if it has a 1" diameter hole you could use the 2" Hitch Ball # SC23-C. You could also use a ball mount that has a 2" ball already installed,...
