Frequently Asked Questions
What is this ball mount rated for?
Blue Ox rates it to 12,000 lb gross trailer weight.
Does this rating raise what my vehicle can tow?
No. The ball mount rating describes the mount only. The towing limit is set by whichever part of the system is rated lowest, which may be the receiver, the vehicle or the trailer coupler rather than the mount.
How is the height adjusted?
The ball assembly pins to the platform, and moving it up or down one hole changes the height by 1 inch, within the 7 in of available drop or rise. Pins and clips are supplied.
