Trailer Hitch Ball Mounts for Every Towing Setup

A ball mount is the piece that connects your trailer hitch receiver to the trailer ball, and getting the right one matters just as much as the hitch itself. Action Trucks carries a wide range of ball mounts, including pre-assembled kits, dual and tri-ball options, and adjustable drop mounts, from Enthuze, CURT, Blue Ox, Buyers, Gen-Y Hitch, and Trimax, built for Class 1 through Class 4 hitches.

Why the Right Ball Mount Matters

A ball mount that sits at the wrong height can leave your trailer tilted forward or backward, which affects handling, headlight aim, and how evenly the trailer's weight loads onto its axles. Choosing a ball mount with the correct drop or rise keeps the trailer level with the tow vehicle for a safer, smoother tow. Many ball mounts in this category use rugged steel construction with a powder coat finish, which holds up to repeated use and outdoor exposure over years of towing.

Pre-Assembled Ball Mount Kits

Pre-assembled kits, such as the Enthuze 2 inch drop and 4 inch drop ball mount kits rated at 6,000 lbs, come with the shank, ball mount, and hitch ball already put together, giving you a ready to install option straight out of the box.

Dual and Tri-Ball Mounts

For drivers who tow multiple trailers with different coupler sizes, a dual or tri-ball mount offers two or three ball sizes on a single shank. The Enthuze Tri Ball Mount with Hook, for example, includes 1-7/8 inch, 2 inch, and 2-5/16 inch balls plus a hook for chains, all on one solid shank.

Adjustable Ball Mounts

An adjustable ball mount, like the Enthuze 3-Position Adjustable Ball Mount with 8 inch drop and 6-1/4 inch rise, lets you fine tune trailer height across multiple positions, which is useful if you tow more than one trailer or switch vehicles.

Forged Ball Mounts

Forged ball mounts, including the Enthuze Forged Ball Mount options with 2 inch or 4 inch drop, are built for added strength at the ball hole, a good fit for drivers who want extra durability in a compact mount.

Fitment Information for This Category

Every ball mount listed in this category is shown with no fitment information, meaning these are universal components rather than parts tied to a specific vehicle year, make, or model. Instead of vehicle fitment, the key specifications to match are receiver tube size, ball diameter, drop or rise measurement, and overall length, since these determine how the ball mount fits your hitch receiver and how level your trailer sits once hooked up.

Choosing the Right Ball Mount

Start by measuring your hitch receiver opening, typically 1.25 inch, 2 inch, or 2.5 inch, then measure the height difference between your hitch receiver and trailer coupler to determine the drop or rise you need. From there, match your trailer ball diameter, commonly 1-7/8 inch, 2 inch, or 2-5/16 inch, and confirm the mount's weight rating covers your loaded trailer.
