Can Either Pin Hole of B&W Tow and Stow Ball Mount part # BWTS10049B be Used

Updated 09/22/2024 | Published 05/08/2018

Question:

This hitch has 2 sets holes in the shank. Can I use either of them equally? Id like to use the first set so the hitch sticks out further from the back of my truck, but the manual has nothing to say about this as far as I can tell. Though all the graphics show only the second set being used.

If I'm using the first hole on the shaft is there an issue with strength I'm trying to push the ball out a little further.

@Steven Going out to the further hole does not affect the strength or capacity so you'll be fine.
