Expert Reply:
The Curt Heavy Duty Forged Ball Mount # C45342 is compatible with a hitch ball that has a 1-1/4" shank.
A popular 2" hitch ball option is part # A-90 but if you need a 2-5/16" hitch ball I recommend part # 63840 instead.
You will also need a hitch pin and clip # C21500 to secure the ball mount to your trailer hitch. If you would like a locking hitch pin then I recommend going with part # e98880 that we offer.
