Reese Tri-Ball Mount with Hook - Versatile 3-Ball Towing Mount

In this review the Reese 7031400 Tri-Ball Mount with Hook is evaluated as a practical, all-welded trailer ball mount for users who tow a variety of trailers. The bottom line: this mount suits drivers who need three common hitch ball sizes in one compact 8in mount and a built-in hook, making hitch changes simple without swapping hardware. The single biggest reason to buy is the convenience of having 1-7/8in, 2in and 2-5/16in balls plus a hook on a fatigue-tested, solid welded assembly that is built to withstand road abuse.

Key Features

• Three ball sizes: The integrated 1-7/8in, 2in and 2-5/16in balls let one mount cover a wide range of trailers so swapping balls is rarely required.
• Hook included: The additional hook adds utility for recovery or non-standard trailer attachments without needing a separate accessory.
• All-welded construction: Solid welded design delivers durability and stability under load for reliable towing performance.
• Fatigue and stress tested: The mount has passed fatigue testing designed to ensure it withstands road abuse and repeated towing cycles.
• Varied capacity ratings: Offers graduated tongue and gross towing capacities by ball size to match small utility trailers up to heavier towing tasks.

Who It's For

This mount is for owners who frequently tow different trailers or rent trailers and want a single, durable mount that covers common hitch sizes. It works well for homeowners, landscapers, and light commercial users who value convenience and a rugged, welded product.

Those who need extreme professional towing capacities or who must match a vehicle's unique hitch rating should consult their vehicle owners manual and consider a dedicated single-size high-capacity mount instead; this tri-ball unit is designed for versatility rather than maximizing a single-ball rating beyond its listed capacities.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Consolidates three common ball sizes and a hook into one mount, reducing the need to carry multiple mounts.
• All-welded construction and fatigue testing provide confidence in long-term durability and safety.
• Clear capacity breakdown by ball size supports matching trailer loads to the correct ball for safe towing.
• Compact 8in length keeps attachment points close to the hitch receiver for predictable handling.

Cons

• Not a substitute for a dedicated high-capacity mount when towing at the extreme ends of vehicle or trailer ratings; always consult the vehicle owners manual.
