Updated 10/27/2025 | Published 03/04/2025
Question:
I own a Curt 17331 weight distribution short trunnion hitch, with a 2inch ball. I am getting a new trailer that requires a 2 5/16inch ball. Do you know which ball fits my hitch shank diameter and length. Thanks

Hey Sam, thanks for reaching out!
The Curt 17331 fits with a hitch ball that has a 1-1/4" shank, so I recommend picking up the Draw-Tite 2-5/16" Hitch Ball # 19286 for your application.
Congrats on the new trailer! What did you end up picking up?
