Expert Reply:

This Cushioned Ball Mount, part # AMSC4, has a ball mount hole that measures 1 inch in diameter.

If you are looking for a ball with a 1 inch shank that also has a 10,000 lb capacity I would recommend the Convert-A-Ball Interchangeable Ball Set, part # 901B.

What is also nice about this ball set is that it comes with an interchangeable ball that can be swapped from 2 inch to 1-7/8 inch quickly and easily and should work very well for you.

Hi can this hitch be used with the Malone Anti-Rattle HitchLock System? Also could this hitch be combined with the Curt Rockerball to give even more cushion or would those two products not work well combined? Thanks!

Yes, the Convert-A-Ball Ball Mount # AMSC4 will work great with the Anti-Rattle # MPG908 to eliminate any of that extra movement. Adding the Curt RockerBall # C40047 to this wouldn't hurt anything, but I might try using the Conver-A-Ball Ball Mount with a standard hitch ball first to see if you think a cushioned ball is even necessary.
