Adjustable Ball Mount That Fits 2013 Chevy Silverado 2500HD that Can Fit Rock Tamer Mudflap

Question:

One of your experts in an earlier question gave the following response for a 2015 2500HD, For an adjustable ball mount for a 2-1/2 inch hitch that would work well on your 2015 Chevy Silverado 2500HD the Weigh Safe 2-Ball Mount w/ Built-In Scale # WS8-25 would be a great option that would work well. We recently had a customer come back and say this ball mount worked well with a Rock Tamer Mudflap like part # ERT00110. I have a 2013 2500HD and the distance from the center of the shank pin to the front of the hitch measures 2.5. From what I find, the distance from the center of the shank pin to the back of the hitch on the WS8-25 is 3, which would only leave 1/2inch for the Rock Tamers hub which requires 1. Can you please confirm whether or not a Weigh Safe 2-Ball Mount w/ Built-In Scale # WS8-25 will work on a 2013 2500HD with Rock Tamers? Thank you,

I have a really great adjustable ball mount that would fit the hitch you have, can provide the same 8 inches of drop as the Weigh Safe # WS8-25 but has the clearance needed to install the Rock Tamers mudflap kit part # ERT00110 you mentioned with the BulletProof Hitches Adjustable 2-Ball Mount # HD258. The Weigh Safe ball mount is not going to have enough clearance on the shank so it would not work for you.

This has a 12,000 lb capacity if you use the 2 inch ball option and 22,000 lb capacity if you use the 2-5/6 inch hitch ball. I attached a review video for more info on this for you to check out as well.
