11 Inch Ball Mount Recommendation to Tow Trailer Level

Updated 07/14/2015 | Published 07/12/2015

Question:

I have a 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee with a hitch height of 23. The level coupler height of my utility trailer is 12. When hitched to a 10inch ball mount, the trailer coupler height is 11. When hitched to a 8inch ball mount, the coupler height is 13. The tongue weight is about 13 for the 10inch , and slightly less with the 8. What would you recommend?

The goal is to tow you trailer as level as possible. So based on the dimensions you just listed you would want 11 inches of drop so that your trailer can be towed level.

For that you would want the Ball Mount part # 80248 that has 11 inches of drop.
