Expert Reply:

We don't offer a 5 inch drop ball mount, but if you were to use a 4 inch drop like part # C93KR and installed a
# 63845 ball, you'll get a bit of squat in the rear suspension of the vehicle (which would vary according to the trailer's tongue weight) that would put you close enough to the 5 inch drop you're looking for. The ball needs to be torqued to 250 foot lbs, but any local shop should be able to do that for you without charging you an arm and a leg.

The trailer doesn't need to be exactly level, but we recommend getting as close as possible. As long as you're within 2 inches of level, you'll be perfect. If you don't already have a hitch pin, you can use either # PC3 or # e98882 for a locking hitch pin.
