Its solid forged steel construction is durable and sturdy enough to last for years to come. With a rust-resistant glossy finish, this ball mount will make any vehicle look fantastic.
The adjustable ball height lets you tow a variety of trailers with different tongue heights. Having both a 2" ball and a 2-5/16" ball allows for even more versatility, making this the ultimate go-to ball mount if you own multiple trailers.
Changing Ball Height and Replacing Balls
To adjust the height of the ball, remove the included pins so that you are able to slide the ball platform up or down along the shank to the desired position. Re-insert the pins once you have found the correct height. Switching the hitch ball is just as easy. Simply remove the pins holding the ball platform in place and slide the platform off of the shank. Flip the platform upside down so that the ball you want to use is on top. Then slide the ball platform back onto the shank and replace the pins and clips.

Too much play in this hitch... it works fine when driving at speed but it clunks a lot and the little bit of play allows the trailer to jar my truck. A rigid drop hitch would be preferable.
Comments
Thank you for your review. You can use an anti-rattle device at the start of the hitch, but no other devices will fit at the joints of the ball mount. Part # RM-061

The set screw that holds the dual ball assembly in will not stay tight, no matter how much lock tite you use, so i had to weld it in. Because I can weld i did but others would have to find a shop to do it and that would not be cheap. Other than the set screw problem I would have given 5 star. I do like it and would buy again.
Comments
I reached out to the manufacturer about the movement in the ball mount hitch ball. With a double ball adjustable ball mount the hitch balls are not tightened down by a hitch ball nut. They have a bolt that goes through the middle of the double ball. Because of the different design you could see some movement in the hitch ball. This is normal on all double ball draw bars.

Very well made hitch, I bought it for the ability to tow different trailers which it does with ease. Adjustments are easy and quick. Definitely with every penny

I bought this drop down to tow my enclosed trailer behind my Humvee. Because of the nearly two foot ground clearance I wanted a sturdy hitch but still tow a level trailer. This fit the bill 100%. I was not disappointed in this unit. First of all it’s heavy. And that’s a good thing in my mind. Secondly it fit like a glove. Great powder coating and really sweet hardware. Every inch of this hitch is top quality. You can’t go wrong with the price or with etrailer. Best customer service and quick shipping. I highly recommend you chose this hitch if you need a substantial drop and DON’T buy from anywhere but etrailer.

Should be the last hitch I need to buy, is rated for close to what a 2020 F150 with max tow package can haul, in pic mine is at 17.5 inches high which levels my trailers, I got the 10 inch drop but the 6 in one would have worked. Get the 6 in one for this truck if you are worried about it dragging off road. I got the 10 in to cover all future needs with any truck I may tow with

It's a great strong hitch for what I do. I do landscaping on the side and I haven't had a single problem with it for the last year. If something happened to this hitch I'd definitely buy it again. It's been well worth the purchase!

Never had a bad experience with etrailer. Don’t forget to order the locking hitch pins like I did. If you pull different trailers this hitch is very handy.

Super heavy duty and works well for my F150 with a 6” lift and 35” tires. I have bottomed it out when the bed is loaded down and I’m driving on a pot holed dirt road. Zero damage though.
Comments
Still works great. I’ve knocked of some of the paint from use but only really minimal rust.
Jason S - 03/07/2021Thanks for your review. To help extend the life of your ball mount cover any bare metal with anti-corrosion spray paint.

My experience with etrailer was awesome all away around . Shipping was super fast only took 3 days and that was all the way from the East coast . This product is solid and fits snug into my reciever there is no excessive slop or play . Definitely more than what I need as far as the 12,000 tow rating goes and gives me the extra confidence for all my towing needs and ensures my horses are safe when going down the road in my 9,000lb 3 horse bumper pull .

Ask the Experts about this Fastway Trailer Hitch Ball Mount
- Distance From Pin Hole to Ball Center on Flash Solid Steel Adjustable 2-Ball Mount FA49-00-5900The distance from the hitch pin hole of the Flash Solid Steel Adjustable Ball Mount # FA49-00-5900 to the center of the hitch ball is 9 inches. This is a pretty standard length so I'd assume it's probably pretty close to what you have on your Curt ball mount.
view full answer... - Can Shank From Fastway FA49-00-5900 Adjustable Ball Mount Be Used with a Weight Distribution HitchWeight distribution shanks offered from Curt, Reese, Equal-i-zer, Fastway etc will typically be interchangeable. However, the shank used on the # FA49-00-5900 adjustable ball mount isn't designed for use as a weight distribution shank. Not only will a weight distribution shank need to deal with the trailer tongue weight but also the forces exerted by the weight distributing spring bars with actually exert a huge amount of force. Therefore, you wouldn't want to use anything that hadn't been...

The Flash Solid Steel Adjustable 2-Ball Mount has a maximum rise of 11 inches, as you said, and maximum drop of 10 inches.

- Compatibility Of Flash Steel Adjustable Ball Mount With UFP A-160 Surge Coupler On Boat TrailerYes, the Flash Solid Steel Adjustable 2-Ball Mount # FA49-00-5900 will have enough clearance for the UFP A-160 surge coupler on your new boat trailer. While the head of this surge coupler does look longer than others, the ball sleeve is in the very front of the head. I recommend using the Hitch Lock and Adjustment Pin Lock Set # FA86-00-4200 to secure the hitch and adjustable ball to your tow vehicle. This will help prevent someone from stealing this ball mount and allow you to keep it...

This will have 10 3/4 inches of rise, 7,000 pounds of capacity, and will clear your bumper. As a side note, you do have about 2 inches up or down to still technically be level.

view full answer... - How are Hitch Balls Secured to Mount on Flash Solid Steel Adjustable Ball MountI reached out to the manufacturer who said the hitch balls on the Flash Solid Steel Adjustable Ball Mounts are a solid piece that has a bolt running through it inside the mount. What this means is that there is zero chance of it coming apart while you are towing your trailer. Simply abide by the capacities of the hitch and it is extremely safe. There are a number of Flash Solid Steel Ball Mounts, each of which comes with a 2" and 2-51/6" hitch balls and the correct one for your needs will...

For an American made adjustable ball mount I recommend the B&W Tow & Stow 2-Ball Mount item # BWTS10043B. This ball mount fits a 2" receiver and has 2 adjustable balls, both a 2" and a 2 5/16". It has 9" of drop and rise. You will be able to tow up to 7,500 lbs with the 2" ball or 10,000 lbs with the 2-5/16" ball.

The Flash Solid Steel Adjustable 2-Ball Mount part # FA49-00-5900 however won't work, instead I recommend the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution Shank part # FA92-02-4315 which provides up to a 7-1/2" drop.

For a similar option we have the B&W Tow & Stow 3-Ball Mount # BW54FR. This does allow you to store the hitch balls on the underside, it fits a 2-1/2" hitch receiver without an adapter, and you're able to lock the whole assembly to your trailer hitch with just one...

To answer your question first, you will not have to worry about loss of tow capacity with the 10" rise you are looking for. Both of the options I am going to give you will be well over the towing capacity of your 2010 Honda Odyssey so you won't have to worry about the ball mounts not being rated high enough. The first option is the Convert-A-Ball Ball Mount for 2" Hitches - 8-3/4" Rise - 10" Drop item # AMSC10. This fixed ball mount is slightly shorter...

These measurements can be found in the video of the Flash Solid Adjustable ball mount that I have attached.

However, by the looks of that trailer, the fenders you've got on there are going to really limit the size tire you can put on there. You normally want to leave at least 3" between the top of the tire and the fender so that you don't damage the tires when going over any bumps or anything, so I'm not sure that adding a larger tire is going to be the best solution. It sounds like...
