Question:

My truck has a 6 inch frame lift and factory hitch. What hitch ball do you suggest? I'm looking at BWTS10033B.

Expert Reply:

For your factory trailer hitch receiver and 6 inch lift on your truck, you will want a ball mount with a significant drop so you can tow your trailer level. The B&W # BWTS10033B is a great ball mount, but it will not give you enough of a drop to tow your trailer level.

I recommend the B&W Tow & Stow 2-Ball Mount - 2" Hitch - 9" Drop, 9-1/2" Rise - 10K - Black # BWTS10043B to give you the same functions but the drop needed to account for your lift. I have attached videos to assist.

I also recommend using a hitch lock like # BX8858 to secure your ball mount to your hitch and deter theft.
