Helpful Expert Reply:

The mounting holes are slightly different between Curt trailer hitch # C14006 and # 14301. I have included a side by side picture that shows this. Otherwise they have the same capacities. I have linked instructions for both hitch for you.

If you plan on doing some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # EBMK2416. It comes with a ball mount with a 3 inch rise or 4 inch drop, a 2 inch and 2-5/16 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not have the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, use the link I have included to the right that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
