CURT 40004 Chrome Trailer Hitch Ball, 6,000 lbs, 2-Inch Diameter, 1 x 2-1/8-Inch Shank

Good price and quality

Good price, 2 day delivery, works perfectly

Fits and looks good. Cheaper than box store.

Very heavy duty, very well built, very nice chrome finish. Probably can’t find a better one!

Well made ball with good finish, and it works fine, but installation onto the ball mount requires 250 ft-lb of torque to properly tighten the 1-1/2 inch nut. So, I had to obtain both a suitable torque wrench and a 1/2 inch drive, 1-1/2 inch size socket. However, even once I had those, the 250 ft-lb torque requirement was too high to merely clamp the flats of the ball in the vise mounted to my workbench and tighten the nut--it would have toppled the bench. Holding the ball against rotation with a large wrench (I used a huge pipe wrench) engaging the ball flats with one hand while tightening the nut with the other hand using the torque wrench also didn't work for me; though their handles were each about 18 inches long, I wasn't strong enough to force the two wrench handles together to achieve the required torque. Finally, I slipped the ball mount SIDEWAYS into my truck's hitch receiver, such that the ball and its threaded portion extended horizontally, parallel to the truck bumper. This orientation allowed the handle of the pipe wrench (engaged with the ball flats) to be supported by the ground. I could then put substantially all of my weight on the torque wrench, which allowed me to torque the nut to the required 250 ft-lb installation torque.

Solid, the chrome plating is very strong and thick. I hade to clamp the flanges into a vice to torque the nut to 250ft/lbs and the chrome remained intact. I'm sure that it will work for years.

works great

Solid

Era justo lo que necesitaba, gracias.

Parfait

It's very metally and shiny. What more can I say. As trailer balls go, it's doing a great job!

I liked that I could hook a trailer up to my truck with this.
