This hitch has worked out great for me over the last year. It’s very heavy duty and easy to adjust. I’ve hauled a 9,000 lb boat, long-distance on numerous occasions without issue. I also haul a landscape trailer on a daily basis weighing over 5,000lbs and haven’t had a single issue. Great hitch that was significantly cheaper than others and is very high quality. I’ve recommended it to several people and I wouldn’t hesitate to buy again. The only thing I would like to have now in a hitch is a tongue weight gauge, but it isn’t necessary.

It just so happens we offer a tongue weight scale as part # e99044...



by:

Still haven't towed anything with it yet but it seems very solid. I do think it will rattle some in the receiver because it is loose in my 2" receiver on my 2019 F150.

I have used this quite a few times over the last year. I have used it in several different heights and it worked great. This is a very strong and heavy product that should last me a life time and on many tow vehicles.



by:

Rochelle was fantastic, did all the searching to get me exactly what I needed to get the correct tow equipment I needed. I wanted the channel style hitch and she located exactly what I needed!



by:

I am very impressed with C45900 ball mount. Curt is an excellent manufacturer. The only thing I did not like are the snap rings on the pins. I have seen those get hooked unintentionally or be pulled to steal the ball mount. I replaced Curt's pins with Grade 8 bolts, drilled holes and secured with a padlock. It would be nice if someone made a locking hitch pin with enough span for the channel. I added the reflective tape for higher visibility. I live in Phoenix where they have a plant. Please run this idea by them and let me know what they think. The two locking hitch pins would only raise the price by $50. If you have a vendor who has longer pins please let me know. Using unsecured pins is asking for trouble. Thanks--Jerry



by:

Pictures attached. Curt makes such great quality products. I love this new hitch.

Tim

Great hitch, after one year I still recommend. Get one!



by:

Excellent product. Installed in minutes. I tow a 14 k lb dump trailer. Needed the additional rise on the hitch. The draw bar is adjustable so that I can tow my utility trailer as well. High quality like most products I have purchased from etrailer.com

Very good except the Rubber s have worn causing hitch to vibrate

My package came in opened and I’m not sure all the parts are even there. I can send a picture to show you what was in the package and how the package was when I received it. It was open on two ends.

Sorry to hear about this. Customer Service will contact you.



by:

This is a great hitch. Highly recommend this hitch. This is my second curt hitch, first one was on my ford f450 but unfortunately that one wouldn’t fit on my new truck, do to shank size.



by:

Thanx for a high quality hitch with low or no noise.I will be towing a 12000 lb 30Ft.Rinker.
The hitch is very easy to adjust.

Still Great



by:

The hitch worked great I bought this hitch plus a Curt Lunette ring C48660 for my pull truck. Used the hitch setup for the first time last night and worked flawless, I would definitely recommend this setup to my friends the price was great and the hitch is well built.Thanks etrailer



by:

This hitch is as KISS as an adjustable hitch could be. Built very well, with good thick gussets, a solid receiver shank, perfect welds and a good powder coat. The fact the trailer balls are built from one forged piece means no worry about a nut loosening and no weld to potentially break. I would go ahead and recommend you buy two replacement rubber isolators and just go ahead and put them in the other two holes in the hitch so no matter where the ball is it has some contact with an isolator without having to move the one it comes with. I highly recommend etrailer, they have great prices and fast shipping and they put out a lot of very helpful videos and pictures of the products they are selling.



by:

Excellent product that fit my need perfectly. I tow with 2 trucks, one needs a drop and the other needs it up a bit. I usually leave it on one truck but I also tow 3 different trailers with it and was sick of having to carry all sorts of hitches.
I've had no complaints at all with it, I'd definitely buy recommend it to anyone.

@Shane Good deal, glad you're happy with the # C45900 ball mount!


by:

Ordered Curt C45900 for my work truck. Chose this product because it's rated slightly above what I need, it's steel and highly adjustable. Etrailers website is very easy to navigate, has a lot of installed photos for comparisons and has fast shipping. Will continue to shop with Etrailer as needs arise.



by:

I really like your products and the shipping of my hitch was very prompt



by:

Just what I needed in a drop hitch. Very stout. Love the ability to change by 1 inch at a time.

Cody

6/8/2019

This has made life so much easier for switching around trailers and being able to load level everything. Should have bought one much sooner.



by:

I like the overall versatility of this hitch but the only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars is because Curt is manufactured in the USA. The box I received says it was made in India! I hope this metal is strong and well made cause my horses lives depend on it.

Etrailer Expert

Thank you for your review. The Curt hitches are assembled in the USA but not the ball mounts. The only adjustable ball mounts that we carry that are made in the USA are the B&W adjustable ball mounts like part BWTS10040B.



by:

Love this ball mount, i just bought a new dump trailer and needed something with some meat to it. This product it solid steel and can with stand a very heavy load. I would reccomend this product to anyone. I started with another brand product and it just could not handle the tough jobs.



by:

Work like it should and is easy to adjust.I like.the set screw on the back to keep the hitch from rattling and to lock the pins also.Well pleased



by:

We need the ability for different vehicles to pull a trailer and this should work great but haven't had a chance to use yet.



by:

Heavy duty. Buy once cry once.



by:

Great price. Worked perfectly. E-trailer always has what I am looking for with fast shipping. Great product and very well constructed.

Bryan

It works perfect. Adjustable so I can tow my boat, and dump trailer. Easy to use and still looks brand new.



by:

This product does exactly what it is designed to do. I use it in my 45' motor home to tow a car hauler trailer.



by:

Awesome Adjustable Ballmount..



by:

High quality build, high towing capacity, very flexible - will adjust to a wide variety of hitch heights. Reasonable price and fast delivery!

Great to deal with and fast shipping.

  • Does The Curt Adjustable Ball Mount C45900 Have A Smooth Channel?
    I must admit to not being sure what you are referring to. The Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount # C45900 does not have the three holes as the anti rattle piece ( # C24DR ) screws into the back of the actual ball part (see picture). Was there something else you were looking at or referring to?

  • Does The Same Hitch Reciever Fit the 2012 and 2013 Model Year of the BMW X1?
    The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver Class III that you are referring to, # 75761, is the same hitch for both the 2012 and 2013 models of the BMW X1. Any changes made by BMW between those two years did not change the fit of the trailer hitch receiver. To use this hitch receiver for towing purposes, I would recommend using an adjustable ball mount like the Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ball Mount, # C45900. This ball mount will allow you to tow your trailer level and gives you...

  • Can The Lock N Roll Vehicle Side Hitch # 336VS503 Fit a Curt Adjustable Ball Mount # C45900?
    Yes, you can install the Lock N Roll Articulating Hitch # 336VS503 on the Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount # C45900. The holes on the Lock N Roll are 5/8" diameter and spaced every 2" on center. This will fit the Curt having the same 5/8" diameter holes spaced every 1" on center. This will give you more adjustments than the Lock N Roll 3-Position # 336TS505 or 5-Position # 336TS515 receivers.

  • Ball Mount for 2 inch Hitch with 5 inches of Drop with at Least 7,500 lbs Capacity
    5 inches of drop for a Class III ball mount is hard to find exactly unless you want to use a adjustable ball mount like part # C45900 which comes with both a 2 inch ball and a 2-5/16 inch ball. This ball mount has more than 7,500 lb capacity when used with either ball size.

  • Will the Step for Curt Adjustable Channel Ball Mounts Work with a Curt Rebellion XD Ball Mount?
    I have a solution for you. Unfortunately, I confirmed with my contact at Curt that the Step for Curt Adjustable Channel Ball Mounts - Anti-Skid Surface # C45909 is not compatible with Curt Rebellion XD Shock-Absorbing Adjustable Ball Mounts like part # C57UR. However, it will fit a Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount - 2" & 2-5/16" Balls - 14,000 lbs # C45900. The # C45900 has an overall capacity of 14,000 pounds and a maximum tongue capacity of 1,400 pounds. If you need a recommendation...

  • Will Curt Lock Set Fit Curt Adjustable 2-Ball Mount for 2" and 2-1/2" Hitches
    Yes, the Curt Lock Set # C23556 will work with both the # C45900 and # C45902 meaning the 2-1/2" hitch won't be a problem. The pair of locks comes keyed alike but there is no option to match the keys between the sets of locks.

  • Recommended Adjustable Ball Mount for a 2008 Chevy 2500HD
    In order to choose the correct ball mount for your 2008 Chevy 2500HD, you would first need to find out how much rise/drop will allow you to tow the trailer level. To do this you will need to measure from the ground to the top of the inside edge on your trailer hitch and then compare that to the distance from the ground to the bottom of the trailer coupler while the trailer is level. I have attached a help article that walks you through this process as well. In regards to weight capacity,...

  • Fixed and Adjustable Ball Mounts for 2-Inch Hitch on 2004 Lexus GX 470
    Both hitches made for your 2004 Lexus GX 470, Draw-Tite # 75155 and Curt # 13445, are welded together as one-piece so I think what you are looking for is actually a 2-inch ball mount that slides into the square receiver opening and lets you tow. This is also sometimes called a draw bar and is what the hitch ball bolts onto. You can see one in the linked photo and an article on how to select one is also linked for you. A ball mount should be selected so that the trailer sits level to the...

  • Recommended 2-1/2 Inch Trailer Hitch Extension and Wiring for Boat Trailer Behind In-Bed Camper
    It sounds like you need about a fairly long extender and there unfortunately is not an extender that isn't also a reducer for your 2-1/2 inch hitch receiver. My recommendation is to use the Curt Hitch Extension and Reducer for 2-1/2" Trailer Hitches - 24" to 34" Long # C45048 which has the same capacities as the similar Reese # RP45292 and then use a more cost effective option for your ball mount like the Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ball Mount # C45900. This will give you an adjustable...

  • How to Determine Rise to Choose the Correct Ball Mount
    To determine the rise (or drop for that matter) you need in a ball mount like the # AMSCV-4 you referenced you need to take a couple of measurements. Park both your trailer and tow vehicle on level ground. Measure from the ground to the inner top of the trailer hitch's receiver opening on the vehicle, as well as from the ground to the bottom of the trailer's coupler. The difference of these two is the rise or drop you need. If the trailer's coupler is higher than the receiver opening...

  • Recommended Adjustable Ball Mount With 2" and 2-5/16" Hitch Ball That Is Made In The USA
    The Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount - 2" & 2-5/16" Balls - 14,000 lbs # C45900 you were looking at is made overseas, but we do have a few made in the USA options. I recommend the taking a look at the Gen-Y Adjustable 2-Ball Mount w/ Stacked Receivers - 2" Hitch - 5" Drop/Rise - 16K # 325-GH-224 which has a 5" rise and drop, a 12000lb towing capacity when using the 2" ball, and 16000lb towing capacity when using the 2-5/16" ball. One of the great features of the # 325-GH-224 is...

  • Adjustable Ball Mount that Comes with a 1-7/8 Inch Diameter Trailer Hitch Ball
    Adjustable ball mount # C45900 does not have a 1-7/8 inch ball option but I do have a recommendation for you. Check out the adjustable ball mount with a tri-ball attachment, # D900. It has a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, and 2-5/16 inch ball.

  • How to Measure to Find the Right Rise or Drop Ball Mount to Tow a Trailer Level
    On any given vehicle, the hitch height can be different depending on many factors. So the only way to determine the correct drop needed to tow the trailer level is to take a couple of measurements. First you will need to have the truck and the trailer parked on level ground. Then measure from the ground to the top of the receiver opening on your 2011 Chevy Silverado. Next you will need to level the trailer and measure from the ground to the bottom of the coupler. If the trailer is lower...

  • Is There a Clevis Adapter for the Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount
    The Clevis Adapter for B&W Tow & Stow part # BWTS35200B will not work with the Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount part # C45900. However, you could use the Demco 2-Tang Clevis part # DM12676-30 which has the same 1-1/8" hole you woukd just need to make sure the pin would span the width of all the tabs.

  • Can Anti-Rattle Rubber Insert be Used for 20K Curt Adjustable Shank for 2-1/2 inch Hitch Receiver
    Yes it will! The Rubber Bumper # C45921 is a direct replacement for the Curt Adjustable Ball Mount # C45900 but the only differences between the shank that comes with that system and the Replacement Shank # C45917 that you referenced is the weight capacity and the size of the shank that fits into the hitch receiver. The ball mount kit # C45902 that the larger shank is a replacement for does come with an anti-rattle bolt that installs in one of those holes at the back-side but we have a...

    The Curt # C45900 adjustable ball mount features a shank that's constructed of 2 inch square steel bar stock, that's fully gusseted and welded to the channel mount, just like what you show in the photo you provided. If you'd prefer something that is constructed of cast steel, I'd recommend the Fastway # FA49-00-5600 which also provides a 2 and a 2-5/16 inch ball.

  • Ball Mount Options for Towing Trailer with 2016 Volkswagen Tiguan
    Ideally you buy the hitch first, measure the difference in height between the hitch and the bottom lip of the trailer when level and then buy a ball mount that matches the rise/drop so that it can be towed as level as possible. For your 2016 Tiguan I would recommend the hitch part # e98906. Which when we installed this hitch we found that it measured 15-3/4 inches from the top of the opening down to the ground.

  • Does the Towing Capacity of the Channel Style Adjustable Ball Mount Part # C45900 Change
    The towing capacity of the Channel Style Adjustable Ball Mount part # C45900 will vary depending on the hitch ball used i.e. 2" (10,000 lbs) and 2-5/16" (14,000 lbs). However, the towing capacity will not change when using the ball mount in the rise or drop position and everything else in between. In order to protect your investment I recommend using the Curt Hitch Lock part # C23519. I have attached a review video of the ball mount in action for you as well.
