Question:

Would it recommend to use The Pintle Hook Mount - 3 Position - 9inch Shank Item # 337PM90. To slide on to the the tongue of a trailer to set up a lunette ring on it and be able to remove entire set up when trailer is not used . I just wonder if it would be able to be used in a manner like that or if it would be completely impossible to use on the trailer. Hopefully you can understand my idea for my trailer set up. Thank you for taking the time to read my message

I believe I know what you are asking and you should unhook your trailer instead of removing the entire unit from your hitch still hooked up to the trailer as it would be extremely difficult to get it back in your hitch.

The Buyers Products 2" Pintle Hook Mount # 337PM90 would work great with the Buyers Products 15 Ton Pintle Hook # 337PH15, which you would need to install using Buyers Products Pintle/Combination Hitch Mounting Kit # 3378520. Just make sure you use it properly, unhooking your trailer from the hook.

I have added links to video reviews of each product for you to take a look at.
