Question:
Is the ball mount part available on its own? Or is there another brand ball mount that will fit the Curt channel?
asked by: Sean
Expert Reply:
I reached out to my contact at Curt and while I have a complete replacement option for you, the ball mount section of the # C45901 is not available separately.
Since there is no other ball mount option of the same style that will fit your shank, you will need to purchase another # C45901. In addition you will need a hitch ball with a 1" shank, the 1-7/8" # C40002, 2" # 40083, or 2-5/16" # C40005.
I included a video of the # C45901 for you to take a look at.

I would really like to know Curt's reasoning behind this. Especially since the shank portion is available separately. This hitch would be a lot more useful if you could swap out ball platforms to make it easy to go from a 2" to a 2 5/16" ball.
