Question:
I need a 2 5/16” ball and have a 2” receiver. I want to tow a cargo trailer that has a knob for a sway bar on one side of the hitch. Does this ball mount work with a sway bar system? My reciever is not rated for weight distribution and the trailer ways about 2000lbs. If this ball mount doesn’t work, can you suggest another?

Expert Reply:
In order to use the Curt Heavy Duty Forged Ball Mount part # C45331 with a friction sway control device you'd need to have a sway control tab welded to the side of the platform such as the Weld-On Sway Control Tab part # C45822. If you don't already have a sway bar you can use the Curt Friction Sway Control part # 17200.
