Socket Size for 1-7/8 Bolt-On Hitch Ball for 2 and 2-1/2 Gen-Y Ball Mounts
Updated 03/27/2023 | Published 03/25/2023 >
Question:
What size socket do i need to mount 325-GH-090 on my Gen-Y two ball hitch? And what torque do I tighten it too? Trying to be prepare to get it mounted because I need to put it to work immediately. It says it is a 3/4 bolt, but I am not sure if that is the bolt head size, or the bolt shank size. If it is the bolt shank a larger socket is required.
