Excellent Towing Accessory!

This trailer hitch is a great addition to my automotive gear! Based on my observations, this trailer hitch is really easy to install and it looks great once its on. The hitch has a very strong build, and feels very durable, making me feel confident when towing heavy loads. The only downside I have noticed is that the hitch can be a bit heavy, making it a little difficult to handle on my own. Overall, it is a very solid product..

Pros
  • Strong and durable construction, able to tow heavy loads with ease.
Cons
  • Requires some assembly and installation, which can take time and effort.

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
