Beautifully polished aluminum and extremely light considering how heavy duty it's built.

I seriously can't stop looking at my beautiful, shiny hitch receiver! I've wanted to upgrade for over a year and finally did. I feel like I just ordered this YESTERDAY, and it showed up today! Thank you so much for a QUALITY product! ?



by:

Great heavy duty ball mount. A little overkill for my light trailer, but, stronger is always better. My low vehicle receiver needed a 7' rise and this fit the bill. A little loose in the receiver, but, I'll use an anti rattle clamp when towing.
I was impressed with my whole order with the detailed tracking showing who was handling my order. Arrived just as they indicated. Thanks



by:

The Trophy Ball Mount 7" rise, 8" drop has been awesome. I always have had stainless steel and steel ball mounts in the past. I was quite surprised at the capacities and have been extremely happy with how lightweight it is. Due to a vehicle change and different height in hitch, we had to get a larger drop in order for the trailer to be level. I was dreading working with a large steel drop hitch due to the weight, I'm so happy I found this Brophy aluminum one on ETrailer.



by:

Just as advertised plus quick delivery



by:

Perfect ball mount for my 2019 Kia Sorento which has a low hitch, so finding a good 7" rise was essential. Nice lightweight, well made ball mount. On top of that great customer service, followed my order and made sure I received this in time for our next camping trip!



by:

Got this for Sienna minivan b/c hitch is very low (10.5" from ground) and kind of deep under the rear bumper. This ball mount is long enough to (barely) clear the bumper, which is fantastic. I didn't want to have to use an extender.



by:

I use this with a 1" rise ball on my 2013 F150's front hitch to get enough distance from the front bumper and correct height.



by:

It’s a behemoth! Definitely will give me the clearance that I need.



by:

these parts are easy to obtain through etrailer

towing loads with the right accessories is mandatory and etrailer always help me keep my equipment safely on the road



by:

Poor packaging. The end was partially open and the Ball Mount almost came out. If any thing else was in there it did not arrive

I see that you only ordered this ball mount so nothing was lost.



by:

The product is exactly as advertised and seems to be high quality. Service was excellent as was the follow up after delivery. The delivery was exactly as said and the whole transaction was very smooth. Totally recommend etrailer based on my recent purchase.



by:

It's the right rise for my trailer, it's lighter and it won't rust. Already tried and works perfectly. Very impressed with the product and the company, and their shipping, it was right on time. Nice people to deal with and will again, thanks so much.



by:

Still looks new and I pull a 16 foot trailer everyday for my business



by:

I use this on my Polaris Ranger, works great.



by:

Well made. Good fit. Strong & looks good. Thumbs up!



by:

We love how light this is and more than adequate for the load we awe towing, thankyou for the swift service.

  • Ball Mount Extension or Extended Ball Mount For Curt Clamp-On Bike Rack
    If you put on a Hitch Extender # HE06 you will reduce your trailering capacity to 350lbs tongue weight and 3,500 total trailer weight. Most of the receiver extensions with that much rise include a gusset for strength that may prevent the Curt Clamp-On 3 Bike Rack # C18013 from fitting properly. One that you can consider is the Brophy Ball Mount # EA80. It has no gusset but the design may not allow it to work. I have included a picture with the mount measurements for you to compare with...

  • 2 Inch Ball for Brophy Ball Mount with 1-1/4 Inch Thick Ball Platform
    You are correct about ball mount # EA80. The ball platform is indeed 1 inch thick. The 2 inch ball # 63852 does not have a long enough shank to be used with this ball mount. You will need a 2 inch ball with a long shank such as # 63849. It isn't stainless steel like the other ball and there isn't a stainless steel option with a long enough shank that would work.

  • Recommended Ball Mount With 7 Inches of Rise for a 2012 Hyundai Sante Fe
    The Draw-Tite Ball Mount # 2793 does have the needed 7 inches of rise, but from the center of the pin hole to the closest edge of the upright gusset is only 3 3/4 inches, so I don't think it will work with your vehicle, unfortunately. That being said, we do have a couple other options available for you. The Brophy # EA80 has the needed 7 inches of rise, but at the closest point it is 4 1/8 inches to the center of the pin hole. This does rise pretty quickly and may still work for you, but...

  • Ball Mount Recommendation for a 2014 Toyota Sienna to Tow a Boat Trailer Level
    Since the coupler height on the trailer is 18 inches and the receiver height on the 2014 Toyota Sienna is 11-1/4 inches a ball mount with a 4 inch rise will not be high enough to tow the trailer level. You would need a ball mount with a 6-3/4 inch rise (or something very close) to tow the trailer level. Let's first make sure we measure things the same way. We measure the receiver height the same as you have done; to the top of the receiver opening. On the trailer side, with the trailer...

  • Hitch & Ball Mount for 2002 Jeep Wrangler to Clear Spare Tire
    You can avoid clearance issues between your 2002 Jeep Wrangler's rear-mounted spare tire and your towing ball mount by using a ball mount long enough that will extend past the rear edge of the tire. The 2-inch hitch I suggest for your 2002 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is Curt # 13408. This is a no-drill bolt-on installation. When we installed a Class III hitch on your vehicle we found that the distance from the hitch pin hole to the rear of the spare tire was 6-1/4-inches. Once it is installed...

  • What Type of Aluminum is The Brophy Ball Mount # EA80 Manufacturered From?
    The Brophy Ball Mount # EA80 is forged with 6061 aluminum and heat treated for strength.

  • 8 Inch Drop Ball Mount with Longer Shank for Attachment of Towing Bike Rack
    For a longer 2 inch ball mount that has 8 inches of drop the Brophy part # EA80 would most likely be your best option. This ball mount has 4-1/8 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the beginning of the bend in the ball mount. Or for a steel ball mount with 4 inches you would want the # AMSC8.

  • What Small Trailer do You Recommend for My 2015 Dodge Dart?
    According to the stats I found on your 2015 Dodge Dart, it is only rated to tow up to 1,000 pounds. We do have a utility trailer that weighs only 305 pounds. That is the Detail K2 Mighty Multi Utility Trailer - 6' Long # K2MMT4X6. We also have the heavier/larger Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility Trailer - 7-1/2' Long # K2MMT5X7 (451 pounds). However, given these two trailers, I recommend the # K2MMT4X6 because the tailgate can be used as a ramp and it weighs less. If you need wiring,...

  • Gooseneck Trailer Compatibility with 1995 Ford F-150
    The Brophy Ball Mount - 7" Rise, 8" Drop - 15-1/4" Long - Aluminum - 8,000 lbs # EA80 is only rated for a tongue weight of 800 lbs which most trailer hitch receivers won't be able to handle but most gooseneck trailers will exceed. Gooseneck trailers typically use the 2-5/16 inch hitch ball like # SC30-C that is also the size used with larger bumper pull trailers, however it is not recommended to tow a gooseneck trailer behind your bumper as they are designed to be towed over the rear axle...

  • What Does Brophy Aluminum Ball Mount # EA80 Weigh
    The Brophy aluminum ball mount part # EA80 weighs 8 lbs. We should have the weights listed (not sure why we don't) but I would say most of the aluminum options like this are going to weigh about the same.
