Hey Ozzie, since the Weigh Safe Hitch W/ Built-In Scale # WS56KR has a 1" ball shank hole you can use any hitch ball with that diameter like the 2" Hitch Ball # 63845 which has a 2" diameter and a 7,500 lb capacity.
If you have any other questions, please feel free to drop a comment and let me know!

Since the thickness of the hitch is 2" and the length of the hitch ball is 2 1/8" that would only leave 1/8" for the washer and nut. Is that enough threads?
