Question:

Hi guys, I have a 2026 Ford F-250 with the factory 2-1/2" receiver. I measured my truck and trailer and a 2" drop should put me right where I need to be. Which of these etrailer ball mounts do I need? I see a 10,000 lb and 20,000 lb version.

Hey Jason! You will want to choose the ball mount based on the ball size (should match your coupler). The capacity is tied to the size of the ball. We have the following etrailer ball mounts with a 2" drop for the 2-1/2" receiver on your 2026 F-250:

-etrailer Ball Mount w/ Pre-Torqued 2" Ball 2" Drop # e68TV

-etrailer Ball Mount w/ Pre-Torqued 2-5/16" Ball 2" Drop # e38TV

The # e68TV has a 10,000 lb capacity while the # e38TV is rated for 20,000 lbs. Both have the hitch ball already installed and torqued so they're ready to use.

What trailer are you towing?

Thanks Robin. It has a 2-5/16" coupler so I'll go with the 20,000 lb one. I'm towing a 14k equipment trailer.

@Jason you're welcome! The # e38TV is definitely the right choice then and gives you plenty of capacity for your 14k equipment trailer. Be safe out there.
