Weigh Safe Adjustable Trailer Hitch Ball Mount, 6" Adjustable Drop Hitch for 2.5" Receiver w/ 2 pc Keyed Alike Lock Set, Heavy Duty Aluminum Trailer Tow Hitch w/ Stainless Steel Tow Balls, 18,500 GTW

Very stout and heavy duty. Looks good on dark Blue truck.

When you spend a pretty penny on a truck it doesn't make sense to throw an old rusted out hitch on the back. When I was shopping for a hitch to throw on my new truck I wanted something that was functional, durable, and aesthetic.FunctionalThis boils down to a couple things: 1. The reversible balls enable you to switch flawlessly between the two sizes without stuffing one of the balls in your truck to rattle around while not in use and 2. having one key on your key ring to remove the hitch and change the balls is ideal.DurableAfter having this on my truck for a few months it still looks brand new and with the quality of the materials I expect this to be the case for a long time although I can't attest to this personallyAestheticI'm not the guy that has a 5" lift + wheels and tires + my instagram @ on the back of my truck but if you spend $65k on a truck I think it's worth it to spend another $300 on a hitch that compliments your truck's appearance. This fits the bill. My brother liked my setup so much he went out and bought the same truck I have and the same hitch....Overall, a good hitch. Make sure you're purchasing the correct receiver width. This fits my Ford F-250 and most other trucks in the class.

What a beautiful piece of equipment. This hitch looks like a piece of art.One INITIAL disappointment in this otherwise beautiful piece of equipment is that the locking hitch pin appeared to be too short to use on a 3' shank mount with a 2 1/2" sleeve. I contacted the seller, who assured me that in fact the pin would fit, though they said there wouldn't be any pin length left.THEY were correct. It does fit,but as they acknowledge only barely. This is not a push on lock so you don't get that comforting click when you push it on. In fact you must hold it in place and turn the key to lock it. Not my favorite pin type but this a GREAT hitch.

QUALITY of these products is unsurpassed. Worth every penny. Returned this particular product and ordered replacement thru manufacturer with a good discount applied; 10" drop, keyed alike, storage case, trailer anti-theft accessory, tongue weight gauge model. If you want the best, this is it - period.

I purchased this hitch for my new F250.It is so easy to switch ball sizes and height.No more fumbling around for the correct ball mount. I haven’t loaded up to the ratting.But I have towed 13,500 lbs conventional, no weight distribution without any issues. Great hitch,great design. I bought the matching locking pin. Very convenient to be keyed alike.

I pull a variety of trailers and have had my 180 for three months. I have two "most used" positions that allow most trailers I pull to ride parallel to the ground and still maintain tongue weight. These two items are key to towing a bumper pull trailer at 70 MPH without sway and scrape marks on the highway. The ball is easy to adjust up or down without tools or rotate for the alternate size. I ordered the 8" drop and found that on occasion the unused ball can drag when entering or exiting steep driveways. Something to consider is... If the drop is 8", the actual drop on the unused ball can be 10" - limiting ground clearance with a 10K pound trailer.Options are a truck lift kit, air bags, or as some I've seen have cut the lower 1.25" to 3" portion of the drop totally off. This is much cheaper than buying another twin ball when yours gets damaged.All in all this is a super strong, quiet (no rattling), adjustable height drop hitch! If you pull a variety of trailers with different tongue heights, ball sizes, and you don't want to worry about safety - This one will not let you down!! Not that I would ever do it but you can wrap a chain around it and pull out stuck vehicles too... ;-D

This thing was expensive but it is well built and looks really nice. So why did I give it a score of 4 you ask? Here is my story..... I was torn on getting an 8" drop or 6" drop hitch. In the end I bought the 8" and when I was installing it I realized that I could have gotten by with a 6" drop. But guess what? It didn't matter because the lower ball (the one on bottom that is upside down) hangs down so the clearance from the ground is exactly the same for a 6" or 8" drop hitch (look at the photo and imagine the call being at bottom of column and you see what I am saying). When you set the drop hitch at lowest point on the 6" drop hitch the ball is 2" below the vertical shaft of drop hitch. Bottom line is if you want to buy the 6" drop just buy the 8" drop - you get the same thing for clearance and your have 2 more inches of adjustment if you ever want it.The only way you can have a 6" drop hitch with maximum clearance is to buy the Weigh Safe hitch with the tongue weight indicator. With that one you get 2 separate hitch balls. Problem is I didn't want or need the weight indicator and that unit costs a bunch more $$$$. You can buy a single ball unit but add that to cost and you are almost to the cost of the tongue weight indicator unit. My guess is the Marketing Geeks figured this out and this is why it works out this way.

There were so many great features of this hitch. I like the fact that it is reversible and the fact that it has double adjustment pins, adding an extra layer of safety. One can question whether or not it is worth $100 more than the Brand "X" models, but the two above mentioned facts made me pay it anyway..
