Hi MH,
The balls for the Rapid Hitch Adjustable, Locking, Aluminum Ball Mount Kit # AM3400 can rapidly be changed out by removing the bracket that holds the balls and then pulling out the locking pin # AM3440. With it removed you can slot in one of Andersen's ball attachments and reinstall the bracket on the shank. There isn't a double 2" hitch ball attachment but we do offer the following hitch ball combinations:
Chrome:
1-7/8" Hitch Ball # AM3452
1-7/8" and 2" Hitch Balls # AM3425
2" and 2-5/16" Hitch Balls # AM3424
Greaseless Alumiball:
2" Hitch Ball # AM3453
2-5/16" Hitch Ball # AM3454
1-7/8" and 2" Hitch Balls # AM3436
2" and 2-5/16" Hitch Balls # AM3435

Hey MH, how did the ball change go on your Rapid Hitch setup? I'm curious if one of the combo options like the 1-7/8 and 2-inch or the 2 and 2-5/16-inch worked best for you. Your update could make it easier for others looking to swap hitch balls.
