Question:

Good evening, Can we have a flipped ball mount on a 22 VW Atlas in order to get a higher rise to hook up to a micro Minnie?

Expert Reply:

The 2020 Volkswagen Atlas has a low hitch receiver height therefore you'll likely need a ball mount with built-in rise to tow most trailers level. In order to find the correct one simply measure from the ground to the bottom of the coupler on the trailer while level and then subtract the distance from the ground to the top inside edge of the trailer hitch on the vehicle. You're likely looking around 3" and in which case I recommend the Curt Solid Ball Mount for 2" Hitches part # C45313 which can be combined with the 2" Hitch Ball part # A-90 and the Curt Pin/Clip part # C21500 for a complete setup.

If you need a different rise, you can filter the list of options below.
