Question:

Hitch Ball with 2inch Diameter and Short Shank, 3,500 lbs GTW - Chrome. Need to know the size of the nut that comes with it. Is it a 1 and 1/8 or 1 and 1/4 inch nut. The nut size which came with the unit which I want to replace is a 1 and 1/8 size nut. I have to use a socket wrench because where the nut goes its recessed and cannot be loosened or tighten with a regular wrench. Ill be replacing my old rusty 2inch diameter short shank 3,500 which came with my 2002 Ford Ranger with a new one from your company if the nut size is correct. Thanks in advance for your help.

The Tow Ready 2 inch Hitch Ball # 19258 includes a 1-1/8 inch nut. I just went out to our warehouse to check. It sounds like it'll work great for you.
