CURT 45064 Lifted Truck Trailer Hitch Mount with 2-In Ball - Strong

In this review of the CURT 45064 loaded ball mount, the bottom line is straightforward: its strongest selling point is reliable towing capacity for larger, lifted trucks and Jeeps. The 6-in drop and factory-installed 2-in ball make it ready to tow right out of the box, and the heavy welded steel construction supports a gross trailer weight of 7,500 lb and a tongue weight of 750 lb, which is more than adequate for most boat, utility, and small camper trailers. For drivers who want a no-fuss, durable ball mount that fits a 2-in receiver and comes with the ball and pin included, this model delivers.

Key Features

• Dependable strength: The welded steel construction and hollow shank provide a sturdy platform rated for 7,500 lb gross trailer weight and 750 lb tongue weight to handle common towing loads.
• Ready to tow: The unit ships with a factory-torqued 2-in trailer ball and an included hitch pin, eliminating the need to install or torque the ball yourself before use.
• Lifted truck fit: The 6-in drop on a 2-in x 2-in shank is specifically suited to larger lifted trucks and many Jeep applications where extra vertical drop is required.
• Corrosion-resistant finish: A durable black powder coat protects the shank and mount, while the trailer ball has a polished chrome plating for long-lasting exposure to road conditions.
• Simple installation: The rounded shank and included pin make it quick to insert into a 2-in receiver and secure so a single person can hitch up in minutes.
• Compact overall length: The 9-1/4-in overall length keeps the setup compact while still providing the necessary drop for clearance with many trailers.

Who It's For

This ball mount is well suited to owners of lifted trucks and Jeeps who need a 6-in drop and a standard 2-in ball ready to use; it works especially well for towing small to mid-size trailers like boats, utility trailers, and campers up to the stated capacity. Fleet operators and occasional haulers who prefer a preassembled, factory-torqued solution will appreciate the convenience and time savings.

Shoppers who need higher weight ratings, adjustable shanks, or specialized hitching solutions should look elsewhere; likewise, if you require a different ball size or multi-ball mount, this single 2-in ball loaded mount will not cover those needs.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Solid build quality with welded gussets and reinforcement behind the drop for long-term durability.
• Includes a pre-torqued 2-in ball and hitch pin so it is ready to use out of the box.
• Good value for the combination of capacity, finish, and included hardware.
• Paint quality and chrome-plated ball help resist corrosion and maintain appearance.

Cons

• Comes with a single 2-in ball and standard 5/8-in pin hole, so it is not adjustable and may not suit trailers needing a different ball size.
• The fixed 6-in drop limits flexibility compared with multi-position or adjustable ball mounts.
