Question:

Deciding between the 3 inch and 5 inch drop TandS with the 3-ball mount. What would the distance be from the top of the receiver tube to the lowest point on the 2-5/16 ball when the 2 inch ball is in the tow position? I would primarily use the 2 inch ball which means the 2-5/16 would be closest to the ground when towing and I haven't been able to find a measurement for this distance.

I went to the warehouse to take some measurements and found that from the top of the receiver to the bottom of the 2-5/16" hitch ball was approximately 10-1/2" for the B&W Tow & Stow 3-Ball Mount with 5" of drop # BWTS10048B while the B&W Tow & Stow 3-Ball Mount with 3" of drop # BWTS10047B measured approximately 8-1/2" from the top of the receiver to the bottom of the 2-5/16" ball.
