Question:

Aloha, I am needing to tow my trailer with my super sweet Ford F150 with a leveling kit and bigger tires. Because of the awesome mods, it now sits a couple inches higher than my 2-5/16inch trailer coupler. Also, my last one had a standard pin that allowed for movement and metal-on-metal rattle sound, which is not ideal.

Good morning Bartholomew, we have just what you need, which is the etrailer Ball Mount w/ Pre-Torqued 2-5/16" Ball - 2" Hitch - 2" Drop - 7,500 lbs # e27DR. As you can see in the title, it has the 2-5/16" ball and 2" drop that you need, and fits your F150's 2" receiver opening. I think you'll like the matte black paint along with black nickel ball/pin which looks really neat and resists corrosion better than chrome/raw ball.

Since you are concerned about wobble and rattle noises, I recommend adding an anti-rattle device such as Anti-Rattle Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 2" Hitches - 3-1/2" Span # 63232. I attached a couple demonstration videos for you to check out!
