I have no idea what the exact coupler height of your trailer would be, but typically the range is in between 16-1/2-19 inches in height. The #989900 ball mount kit you'd looked at would have you covered for a 4 inch or a 2 inch drop which would…

No ones kidding you, these are popular with taller truck owners that have lift kits or larger tires. The Gen-Y Hitch Phantom item #GY98XR will sit pretty close to the ground if you have a hitch that only has 12" of clearance. The bottom of the…

Answer 10

For a locking hitch pin to go along with the B and W Tow and Stow part #BWTS10037B a standard locking hitch pin like part #e98880 would work great. There isn't a lock available that will allow the ball mount platform to be locked to the shank of…

Answer 11

I have a solution for you, but in the stowed position the #BWTS10033B would interfere with Rock Tamers mudflaps since there isn't enough clearance between the ball platform and the shank. You would need to go with the 5 inch drop version part…
