Review on Curt Manufacturing 40031 CURT Trailer by Jonathan Clark

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good for small increases in height, difficult to put on

I needed a little more height to keep my trailer closer to level. The disadvantage of this ball is that the part above the hitch mount is completely round. So you have to get creative to get something to hold the top tight while you tighten the nut on the bottom. I think I may have used a clean rag (no lube) and a large set of channel locks to squeeze them as hard as possible. A pipe wrench can also work if you have one.

Pros
  • SUSTAINABLE INSTALLATION. To ensure reliable strength, this hitch ball comes with a zinc plated hex nut and spiral lock washer. It also has fine threads for an improved ball hitch mount (requires 250 lb-ft of torque).
Cons
  • Some difficulty
