How to Pick Out Correct Drop Ball Mount for a Ram Truck with 6 inch lift

Question:
Hello - I just purchased a 2015 Dodge 3500 with a 6 inch lift and 37inch tires. Can you please give me a good recommendation on a hitch size? I was thinking 10inch to pull my little utility trailer that hauls a razor 900 and 2 four wheelers. Thank you,

You actually will have to be the one to determine the amount of drop you would need but I can easily explain how to do this. You will need to measure from the top of your hitch opening down to the ground and then measure from the bottom lip of your coupler to the ground on your trailer when it is sitting totally level. The difference between these two numbers is the amount of drop you would need.
With that info check out the link I attached where you can pick the drop you need from the filters.
