Towing Starter Kit (2" Drop)

Get towing today with this 2" Drop Towing Starter Kit. Everything you need — a drop ball mount, a chrome trailer ball, a bent hitch pin, and an R-clip — arrives pre-assembled and ready for your 2" receiver.

The 2-inch drop positions the ball at the correct height. For stock-height trucks and SUVs where the receiver and trailer coupler are nearly level — minimal drop needed. Choose your ball size — 1-7/8", 2", or 2-5/16" — to match your trailer coupler. The polished chrome ball couples smoothly and resists corrosion, while the black powder-coated mount stands up to weather and road salt.

Rated for 8,000 lbs GTW, this kit is perfect for boat trailers, camping trailers, utility trailers, and ATV haulers. Installation takes seconds: slide into receiver, insert pin, clip, and tow.
