Question:

Hi, I am looking at a ball hitch mount for a transit t250 to a micro miinie, the reciever height is 14 and the hitch for the trailer is 26-26.5 inches when level. The trailer dealer gave me a ball hitch with a reese sway bar but the rise for the ball hitch is only 4.5 inches. I see you carry inexpensive. the loaded trailer weight is only 4500lbs what would you recommend?

If you're after a more traditional fixed ball mount, the Convert-A-Ball Ball Mount for 2" Hitches # AMSC12 will work if your trailer coupler is 26" and your receiver height is 14". This ball mount provides 12" of drop, 10-3/4" of rise, and 7,500-lbs of gross towing weight.

If it's greater than 26", I recommend the Gen-Y Adjustable 2-Ball Mount w/ Stacked Receivers # 325-GH-316. This ball mount offers 12-1/2" of drop, a 10,000-lbs gross towing capacity, and has 6 integrated receiver tubes designed to accept the included ball mount, and other hitch mounted accessories.
