Today we're going to be taking a look at the 2-5/16" hitch ball from Curt. This ball provides a connection point for your trailer's coupler. It's going to feature steel construction with a raw machine finish. The shank features a coarse thread design so that's going to be five threads per inch. It does come with the lock washer and the nut for installation. The nut, from edge to edge, flat to flat, measure 2-15/16".
The ball diameter is a 2-5/16" ball. When it comes to the dimension of the shank, starting with the diameter, measuring edge to edge, it's going to give us a diameter of 2". The length of that shank, from the bottom of the ball platform to the end of the threads, it's going to be about 3-1/2" long, and this ball provides a capacity of 30,000-lbs. That's going to do it for today's look at the 2-5/16" hitch ball from Curt.

Durable machine-finished steel ball has a 2" diameter x 3-1/2" long shank. Coarse threads on shank are durable and allow quick, simple tightening of nut. Lock washer and nut included.I needed the ball in 5 days so I chose 3 day shipping and got it within 24 hrs of order time. I had been looking for a ball like this all day online and couldn't find it until I got on e trailers web site, awesome experience.
We had a ball get loose a egg the hole. I redrilled the hole to a 2” and installed this one with a 2” shank. Perfect fit. Fixed our problem
The product is what I needed. But the customer service was second to none. I needed this particular sized ball for my fifth wheel. The RV dealer did not carry it, they suggested a competing online company. To order from that company I needed to become a member. I ordered this hitch, it was sent the next day, and I got this in two days. In that time frame the other company just got back to me about setting up a membership. I am not a dealer, so I don't want to be forced to a membership. Thank you etailer for making the process simple and faster than my "prime" member ship.
Perfect! I took my truck to three different trailer/hitch "stores" here in the Tulsa area. No one could help me with the ginormous threaded thing in the bed of my truck. All I got was "Nope, we ain't got nutin like that there. That's and old system; older an' the truck is". Went online here, found what I needed, ordered it and it was here in just a few days! Thank you, etrailer! It fits perfectly and is exactly what I needed!
The ball I ordered was heavy-duty and exactly what I needed. It was shipped right away. I am very happy with the product and the service I received.
Couldn’t find the size I needed until I found etrailer.com. Fast service and a quality product. Thanks etrailer.com.

As advertised and great shipping. Excellent customer service.

We have been using these 10,000 lb. 2-inch balls on 7 trucks that tow about 30,000 miles each per year. We replace them every 2 years for safety and have never had any problems with them. I will continue to use this product.
A friend who has towed 9000lbs+ boats, recommended you, and thankfully, I took his advice. The person who answered my call last year was very knowledgeable and gave ne excellent advice for my towing problem(front end sway) and advised me to purchase a proper sway and load hitch, which I did and installed(even made a roll-around" to store the heavy items when not in use).
Thank you for excellent service, bruce
Great advice when I called for technical question about trailer balls -- answered by a live human who knew what they were talking about. This Hitchball has served us well over 9,000 miles of towing our Casita.
Quality is fine. The experience is the reason for the 3 star rating. This ball does not fit the ball mount you sent, and I didn't figure it out until it was too late to return. As always, helpful, friendly staff, but this order had a couple of things the didn't match up. For example, the ball mount did not come with a pin to hold it into the receiver. As a novice, it would have been helpful to have your staff identify this.
The Curt ball hitch worked perfectly for my needs. I installed it on a Blue Ox weight distributing hitch that came with an unusually low ball causing my trailer coupler to contact the hitch head. This ball is a bit over 1/2" taller, which solved the problem. I chose this particular one because the flange that seats against the hitch looked the largest out of the offerings, so I figured it would provide some additional strength. Great ball that yielded great results for me.
Still working great after a year mounted on our Draw-Tite 4285 Ball-Mount/draw bar. Be aware that it may require professional help to mount it to the required 450 lbs of torque. I managed to use a "cheater bar" plus torque wrench to do it myself with 75 lbs of arm strength applied to the wrench, as shown in pics. I had to support our hitch on blocks, since 450 lbs of force exceeds our hitch's 350-lb rating.
I neeed to pull a trailer with my 2019 GMC Yukon. I found Etrailer.com and followed the instructions on determining the drop of the hitch, the instructions were spot on. I hooked up my trailer to my Yukon today, all was level and worked perfectly.
I had driven around to Napa, Lowe’s, Home Depot and Walmart, and nobody had the 9” drop hitch I needed. Came back to Etrailer, bought the 2” ball and pin, and the Curt 9” drop hitch. I received the items quickly.
Great website,
Thanks,
