When it comes to ball mounts, a CURT loaded ball mount is the complete package. These stingers are pre-fitted with a factory-torqued trailer ball, eliminating the need to mount and torque your own trailer ball. This means a loaded ball mount is ready for towing right out of the package! CURT offers loaded ball mounts in a variety of styles and weight ratings. This CURT forged loaded ball mount features a gross trailer weight capacity of 15,000 lbs. and a tongue weight capacity of 1,500 lbs. It comes with a 2-5/16" trailer ball, making it an excellent choice for towing most heavy-duty trailers, including large boat trailers, double-axle utility trailers, deluxe campers, livestock trailers and recreational vehicle trailers used for hauling motorcycles, personal watercraft and ATVs (NOTE: Never exceed the lowest weight capacity of any towing component; i.e. the vehicle, hitch, trailer, etc). This ball mount also has a length of 8-1/2", a drop of 4" and comes with a durable carbide black powder coat finish to resist rust, chipping and UV damage. All CURT loaded ball mounts feature 2" x 2" shanks and are made with the same superior quality we put into each of our products.
