B&W Tow & Stow Adjustable Trailer Hitch Ball Mount - 3in Drop

In this review the B&W Tow & Stow Adjustable Trailer Hitch Ball Mount is evaluated as a versatile, rugged solution for drivers who tow varying loads. The single biggest reason to buy is its adjustable and stowable design that replaces multiple ball mounts and keeps the hitch tucked away when not in use. The reviewer found the build quality and simple height adjustment to be the standout features, and notes that the unit is purpose-built for people who want a durable, all-in-one ball mount that stores under the vehicle for safety and convenience.

Key Features

• Adjustable height: Two stainless steel adjustment pins let you raise or lower the ball assembly for level towing with different trailers and loads.
• Dual ball sizes: The rotating ball assembly swaps between 2in and 2-5/16in balls so you can tow multiple trailers without changing mounts.
• Stowable design: The arm folds up and tucks under the vehicle when not in use to protect shins and garage doors and keep the hitch handy.
• Durable finish: A zinc phosphate base with black powder coat plus e-coat protection resists corrosion and maintains appearance under regular use.
• High-strength steel: American-made steel construction is built to handle heavy worksite and recreational towing demands.
• Lifetime warranty: Backed by a limited lifetime warranty, offering long-term confidence in materials and workmanship.

Who It's For

This ball mount suits truck owners and operators who tow different trailers and need a single, adjustable mount that covers multiple drop heights and ball sizes. It is ideal for boat owners, contractors, and weekend haulers who value a hitch that stows safely out of the way when not towing.

Drivers who only tow one trailer type and never need to stow the mount under the vehicle might find a simpler, fixed ball mount less expensive. Those who require weight distribution systems or specialized hitch setups should verify compatibility before choosing this unit.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Solid build quality and American-made steel construction deliver long-term durability.

• Stows under the vehicle to protect against scrapes and reduce trip hazards in the garage.

Cons

• Heavier and more robust than basic mounts, so it may be overbuilt for light occasional towing.
