Recommended 2-5/16 Inch Hitch Ball and Ball Mount for 2-1/2 Inch Hitch Receiver
Question:
Do you have a 2.5inch ball mount that match the 30000 lbs rating of the ball BWHB94004? I could only find the ones that max out at 20000 lbs. For example, the Curt model C45456. Please advise. Thanks,

Expert Reply:
The Curt Forged Ball Mount for 2-1/2 Inch Hitches # C45456 referenced in your question represents the highest capacity ball mount we currently have available that will fit your 2-1/2 inch hitch receiver. As you mentioned, this particular unit has a maximum trailer weight capacity of 20,000 pounds. It is compatible with the 1-1/4 inch shank on the B&W 2-5/16 Inch Hitch Ball # BWHB94004 that you referenced. When used together, you will just need to follow the lower 20,000 pound capacity on the ball mount.
I have attached a couple short video demonstrations on these products that you can also check out.
