Question:

I purchased this trailer hitch last year and got the towing kit with the ball. The issue Im having is there is a lot of play in the adapter block where you the hitch. When towing it makes quite the racket. Its sturdy and does not feel like its going to fall out or anything. Just wondering if there are any things I can do to lessen the noise?

The Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver w/ Towing Kit # 391SUOB20T should have a snug fit as the stainless steel block the hitch is inserted into was designed to not deteriorate over time. Be sure to look at the Ball Mount # 391BMU3S as if all the paint over the part has come off this would create a slight gap and cause some of the noise. You could recoat it to remove some of the play. Also be sure to check the bolts holding the block to the receiver as this would likely be a place that could create a lot of noise as well.

Beyond those 2 things there is no device designed specifically to remove play on the Stealth Hitches components.
