Adjustable Trailer Hitch for 2.5-in Receiver - 10in Drop/Rise Tow

Our review of this adjustable trailer hitch finds it best for owners of 3/4 and 1 ton trucks who need a heavy duty, weatherproof ball mount that adapts to lifted trucks. The bottom line: this hitch's combination of a reversible 2-5/16in ball with an 18,500 lb GTW rating and a 2in ball option at 8,000 lb makes it a practical choice for hauling heavy trailers while preserving adjustability. The included double anti-theft locking hitch pins and aluminum build make it a solid, low-maintenance tow solution for frequent haulers.

Key Features

• Reversible Ball: The reversible 2-5/16in and 2in hitch ball arrangement lets users switch between heavy duty 18,500 lb GTW towing and 8,000 lb towing without swapping mounts.
• 10in Drop/Rise: Ten inches of drop or rise provides the range needed to level trailers on trucks lifted about 6in to 8in and receivers roughly 24-26in from the ground.
• Designed for 2.5in Receivers: Specifically made for class 5 2.5in receivers commonly found on 3/4 ton and 1 ton pickups for a proper fit on those applications.
• Weatherproof Construction: The heavy duty aluminum body and black finish resist corrosion and reduce upkeep for long-term towing use in all seasons.
• Anti-Theft Locks: The double locking hitch pins are weatherproof and add theft deterrence for customers who leave a mount attached for extended periods.
• Lifetime Replacement: The manufacturer's lifetime replacement program offers long-term support and gives extra confidence for heavy use.

Who It's For

This hitch is aimed at owners of Dodge Ram 2500/3500, Chevrolet 2500 HD and 3500, and similar 3/4 and 1 ton trucks with 2.5in class 5 receivers, especially those who tow heavy trailers, campers or small trucks and need a high GTW capacity and adjustable height. It is also a good fit for drivers with 6in to 8in lifts who must lower the trailer tongue to level the rig.

Drivers with smaller half-ton trucks or vehicles that use a 2in receiver should look elsewhere, and anyone needing a custom-fit drop under 10in or a non-reversible single-ball solution might choose a different style. Also note that vehicle-specific fit can vary, so confirm receiver alignment before assuming perfect fit.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Backed by a real lifetime replacement program and US-based family support for peace of mind.

Cons
