To determine the correct hitch ball size for your R-Vision Travel Trailer, you will just need to look at the trailer's coupler. The hitch ball size it is compatible with should be stamped into the coupler's metal housing or may be located on a safety sticker.

Once you find what size hitch ball you need, you will just need to make sure the shank diameter and length is compatible with your existing ball mount. Lastly, you will need to make sure the hitch ball you choose has the required weight capacity for the loaded weight of your travel trailer.

I have attached a link that will take you to our available selection of hitch balls that you can look through. If you do not yet have a ball mount, I have also included an article that will help you determine the correct rise or drop you will need to tow your trailer level.
