Basic equipment for multiple trailers

If you have multiple trailers this is a must have. I have a small trailer with a 1-7/8 hitch and regularly tow 2 trailers with 2" hitches. I've had a set of 2 sizes (1-7/8 and 2) for many years and just leave them attached to my truck. All I have to do is climb into my cargo hatch and get another size to replace it. It holds up well in the FL elements. I take the ball out, soak the shaft in WD-40, and then re-grease each time. a few months to get rid of the dirt and let it spin freely. The 2" ball has some scratches from an unlubricated plug (I borrowed a truck) but still works. I just bought a trailer and needed a 2-5/16 ball. My hitch has one for weight distribution, but for town or yard touring I wanted to use my regular rig. For $40 I have all 3 sizes, a 2" spare and a spare stock for future use.

Pros
  • hitches and winches
Cons
  • crumpled
