This self-locking ball mount provides anti-rattle tension and is constructed of polished billet aluminum. It carries a heavy-duty gross trailer weight capacity of 10,000 lbs. and a tongue weight of 1,500 lbs. Featuring up to a 11" rise or 10" drop, it houses a chrome-plated platform with both 2" and 2-5/16" diameter hitch balls.
This cut-away view of the shank on a non-adjustable ballmount shows the locking mechanism in motion. As you turn the key, the locking pins will extend out through the pin holes to secure the ball mount in the trailer hitch.
