Ball Mount and Hitch Ball for Towing a U-haul Trailer

Question:

Hello! I have a 2014 Ram 1500 Express model that came with a trailer hitch receiver. I need to tow a regularinch 6 x 12 Uhaul. Would you please recommend a good ball hitch for me?

The Draw-Tite Ball Mount w/ 2" Ball for 2" Hitches - 3/4" Rise, 2" Drop - 7,500 lbs item # DT49MR you were looking at would work great to haul a 6 x 12 uhaul trailer. The trailer has a maximum 4,400 lbs capacity which would not exceed this ball mount and balls capabilities.

If you are going to be towing regularly, I recommend the Curt Towing Starter Kit for 2" Hitches item # C45534. This towing kit will provide you with a 2" ball and a fixed ball mount with a 3/4" rise and 2" drop. It also includes a hitch pin and clip, hitch receiver lock with keys, hitch cover, and a storage case.
