Great for what I use it for.

Mount this on my four wheeler and now I can tow my 16 foot trailer sideways into a three car garage. Yes it sounds weird but it doesn't fit right in and putting it on my truck sucks!

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Durability

Wrong shaft size in the box

Wrong shaft size in the box. 5/8" ordered, 3/4" received. The label on the parts bag was correct, but the label on the part itself did not match the label on the bag. The bag said 5/8", the piece itself had a tag reading 3/4" and the shank was actually a size 3/4".

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Check your size: Hitch Accessory

Nice and inexpensive, but don't make my mistake; It is a 5/8" shank. NOT for road trailers. This size is for your GARDEN TRACTOR. To tow on the road you will need a 3/4" or 1" shaft depending on your hitch. Measure seven times, once order.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Zero

Good Quality Hitch Ball

This is a good quality hitch ball with a 5/8 inch shank. Fits many lawn tractors and zero-turn mowers without the need for a separate hitch. Most lawn mower clutch plates require a pair of shim washers to prevent the nut from threading onto the unthreaded portion of the shaft. Looks great and has two flats on the bottom of the ball that allow you to hold it to tighten.

Pros
  • Heavy Duty Construction
Cons
  • -

Why complain?: External accessory

It gets the job done. It's better if you put petroleum jelly or grease on it. so it doesn't squeak so loudly. No 10k problems in the experiment. It's just great. Nothing special. trailer attached. Wow!

Pros
  • SECURE INSTALLATION. For dependable traction, this hitch ball comes with a zinc plated hex nut and bolt lock washer. It also has fine threads for better traction on an ATV or lawn mower hitch (requires 90 lb-ft of torque)
Cons
  • Good, but not very good

Fits Lawnmowers/Tractors MTD

Ideal for Troy Built Lawn Mowers (manufactured by MTD). One thing to note is that if your trailer has a fixed jack, the jack leg may even land because it rides low and the ball joint on lawn tractors is very low.

Pros
  • UNIVERSAL TOWING. This hitch ball is specifically designed for towing an ATV, UTV or garden tractor. Ideal for hitching a small trailer and towing in the woods or for gardening.
Cons
  • Hard to say
