Question:

Is the hole in the 45007 1" or 1-1/4"? it looks like 1" but does not tell in description.

Expert Reply:

The Curt Hitch Ball Holder and Tightening Tool for Ball Mounts # C45007 will work well with the Curt Solid Ball Mount for 2" Hitches # C45313. The platform is the standard 2-1/2 inches wide. I recommend the hitch ball # A-90 for a 2 inch ball or # 19286 for a 2-5/16 inch option.

You may also want to consider # e98880 for a locking hitch pin to secure your investment and deter theft.

You have a good eye. I went to our warehouse to measure the hole on the Curt Hitch Ball Holder and Tightening Tool for Ball Mounts # C45007. The diameter is 1.02 inches so you will want the 2" Hitch Ball - 1" Diameter x 2-1/8" Long Shank # 63845 instead and if using that ball mount, you will also want the Reducer Bushing for Ball Mounts - 1-1/4" to 1" # 58184.
