Question:
I already have a ball mount for my truck. Can I use that same one with this bucket receiver?

Hey Derek.
Yes - as long as your ball mount has a 2 inch shank, it’ll slide right into the etrailer clamp-on bucket hitch receiver # e75ZV. That’s one of the nice things about it using a standard receiver size instead of proprietary hardware. You don’t need a special ball mount just for this.
If you’ve got multiple trailers with different coupler sizes, that’s where something like the adjustable etrailer ball mount # e66PR can simplify things. What ball sizes are you currently swapping between?
