How to Pick Out a Ball Mount for a 2009 Chevy 2500 4x4 Truck with a Ranch Hand Legend Bumper
Updated 06/05/2014 | Published 06/04/2014 >
Question:
I recently upgraded my rear bumper on my 2009 Chevy 2500 4x4 diesel truck, I placed a ranch hand legend and now the ball mount does not reach out far enough to place the trailer. What would you recommend.

Expert Reply:
It sounds like you either need a ball mount with more drop then you have right now, or you need one that is longer.
If you need one with more drop check out the FAQ article I attached that details how to pick out the correct rise/drop ballmount. From there check out the link I attached to all of the ball mounts we carry where you will need to select the drop you need form the facet on the left.
Also on the ball mount page is a facet for ball mount length under the rise/drop facet. If you need a longer ball mount check out the extra long and super extra long shanks.
