Frequently Asked Questions

How do I work out the rise or drop I need?

Park your tow vehicle and trailer on level ground, then measure from the ground to the top of the receiver opening and from the ground to the bottom of the trailer coupling. The difference shows the rise or drop needed. Aim to have the trailer level once hitched, as this helps distribute weight more evenly across the trailer axles.

What ratings should I check before buying a ball mount?

Check the maximum towing capacity and ball load rating shown for the vehicle, mount, towbar, tow ball and trailer coupling. The lowest-rated part sets the limit for the whole setup. You should also confirm the receiver size and tow ball thread size. Never choose a mount based on appearance alone, as two similar models can carry very different ratings.

When is an adjustable ball mount worth buying?

An adjustable model suits drivers who tow more than one trailer or change vehicles often. It lets you alter the ball height without buying a separate mount for each setup. Check the adjustment range, pin size, shank length and rating before ordering. A fixed model may be simpler if you tow the same trailer behind the same vehicle each time.

Can I use an extender or adapter with any towing setup?

Not automatically. An extender changes the distance between the vehicle and coupling, while an adapter changes how components connect. Both can affect clearance, turning space and the rating of the setup. Check the product specifications and your towbar requirements before fitting one. You should also confirm that safety chains, wiring and the jockey wheel have enough clearance through a full turn.
