Product Description
If you own multiple trailers or frequently tow a variety of loads, you know how much time and money are spent tailoring your towing system to each and every individual trailer. There is nothing more inconvenient than switching back and forth between a few different ball mounts and trying to remember which mount fits with which trailer. A CURT adjustable ball mount is your multipurpose towing solution. This CURT adjustable channel-style ball mount has a shank size of 2" x 2" and features two different trailer ball sizes to accommodate two different coupler sizes: 2" and 2-5/16". It also features an adjustable shank assembly with multiple mounting holes for varying ball heights. Each trailer ball can be raised to a maximum of 5-1/4" rise or lowered to a maximum of 6" drop, allowing you to make your trailer completely level in any towing situation. The channel-style design and dual-pin mounting system also provide a built-in anti-rattle feature to eliminate obnoxious chucking noises. This CURT adjustable ball mount offers a gross trailer weight capacity of up to 10,000 lbs. for the 2" ball and 14,000 lbs. for the 2-5/16" ball. It allows you to tow a variety of heavyweight trailers, and it features two pin holes in the shank to be mounted at an 11" or 12" length. The adjustable channel-style shank can also be used with the channel-style combination pintle mount or ball mount platform attachment to give you the option of installing your own trailer ball size. All CURT channel-style adjustable ball mounts are made with sturdy steel construction and come with our black carbide powder coat finish for long-lasting rust, scratch and UV resistance.

This hitch has a solid shank with a dual pin mount. This helps extend the hitch outward so that when using the tailgate (at least in our case), the trailer jack and handle won't interfere with the tailgate of a truck opening. Great for when you have other items in the truck bed and you don't have to unhook the trailer, or hold the tailgate from hitting the jack while you retrieve items out of the truck bed.
The ball hitch is a great dual purpose one piece design, no extra components to adjust or fool with, 2" and 2-5/16" for most common trailers, Curt also offers this channel style hitch with a single ball mount, or a pintle hook type. The 6" drop is as much drop as I needed for an F350 and an enclosed trailer, not to mention for smaller trailers you won't need multiple hitches for different height trailer.
The dual ball design alleviates having to change out hitches especially if a job site has multiple trailers with 2" hitch and 2-5/16", this hitch makes an easy transition from moving a travel trailer, then to moving a car hauler around, to hooking up to a dump trailer with a pintle hook, with the ease of a flip of the ball mount, or a quick two pin change out.
Curt sells the pintle hook separate, as well as replacement dual ball mounts in the unfortunate event that one piece gets "lost" or misplaced some how. I would recommend at least 1 locking pin for the ball mount if you intend to leave the ball mount on the hitch, but with the 2 pin removal, it's very easy to pop the pins out and store the ball hitch in the cab, or a tool box, out of the way.
Photos show the wear after being used for pulling 20ft enclosed trailer for the past few months. About a 2h round trip 2x a weekend. So far so good!

The quality of the unit is great. Everything fits the way it should. All holes lined up how they are supposed to both with the hitch on my truck and with the adjustment for the ball on this mount. The welds look to be quality and there are not rough or sharp edges on the unit. I see no areas where there appears to be any damage or low quality workmanship in the manufacturing.
The features of this unit were probably the primary reason I went with this on. Often you see the cheesy lifted trucks rolling down the road with these giant drop hitches and I think they look ridiculous and seem like the may or may not be safe. This hitch has just enough drop to be versatile for any trailer and it allows the user to make it a rise hitch as well. If you vehicle is low to the ground you can flip it over and use it to tow a taller trailer with the lower vehicle. The pins that come with it make it pretty easy to adjust. FYI if you put the pins in opposite each other so the retaining clip is on opposite sides it is much easier to install and take out the retaining clips. This was the only feature that wasn't great on the unit. This is also the heaviest rated adjusted ball hitch I could find. With a 14,000# weight rating for the 2 5/16" ball there's no way you'll find a trailer out there that you can't tow. Id guess that is probably the overall limit you'd want anyway with a bumper pull. Anymore than that and you should be running 5th wheel or gooseneck. So this unit should be the last and only one you'd need to carry.
The price is the same or lower than any other one I could find. Very reasonable and it really shouldn't wear out so its an easy one time purchase knowing that you'll have it for many years to come.
