The Reese Sway Control Bracket, # RP26003, will work with 2-5/16 inch hitch balls as long as the shank of the hitch ball is no larger than 1 inch in diameter. The ball hole of the Reese bracket has a 1 inch diameter.

If your current hitch ball has a shank with a diameter larger than 1 inch, then I would recommend picking up the Curt 2-5/16 inch hitch ball, # C40007, with the sway control bracket.
