Question:

I am looking for a low cost trailer dolly for my trailer that weights 600 lbs and has a 2inch ball. I am only seeing low cost options for 1 7/8 ball like the following: RA20.

If your trailer has a 2-inch ball coupler you can still use the 1-7/8-inch Rack'Em Trailer Dolly # RA20 to move it to and from your storage position. While it would not be appropriate to tow with different sizes of ball and coupler use of a tow dolly with the smaller 1-7/8-inch ball should be no issue. If you did find that the coupler's fit on the ball was too loose, you could simply install a 2-inch hitch ball in place of the standard ball.
