Considerations & Trade-offs
- Limited to a 2,000-lb. capacity, so it is intended for lighter towing needs rather than heavier loads.
- The 1 7/8" ball diameter only fits trailer couplers designed for that size, so compatibility should be confirmed before use.
- Chrome-plated finish is described as corrosion-resistant, but it still calls for normal care and inspection after exposure to weather.
- Installation hardware is included, but the 3" shank length and 1" diameter should be checked against your hitch setup for proper fit.
