Turnover Ball 6in Drop Hitch w/ 2.5in Shank

The WEIGH SAFE Turnover Ball 6in Drop Hitch with 2.5in Shank is a heavy-duty ball mount hitch engineered for serious towing applications requiring precision drop height and maximum load capacity. This aluminum and stainless steel construction delivers the structural integrity demanded by truck owners, fleet operators, and off-road recovery professionals who depend on reliable hitching systems for both highway transport and challenging terrain recovery work.

The 6-inch drop geometry addresses a critical towing variable: proper tongue weight distribution and hitch ball height alignment with trailer couplers. This specific drop measurement reduces stress on frame and suspension by achieving level ride dynamics, particularly important when towing across varied terrain or when vehicle-to-trailer height mismatch would otherwise compromise braking balance and stability. The dual hitch ball configuration—2 and 2-5/16 inch options—provides compatibility with standard and oversized trailer couplers, eliminating the need for adapter sleeves. With weight capacity ranging from 8,000 to 18,500 pounds depending on application and ball selection, this mount handles everything from light equipment trailers to substantial utility loads. The 2.5-inch shank diameter ensures a secure, low-movement connection to receiver hitches rated for this standard shaft size.

This ball mount is specified by serious operators who prioritize reliability in demanding conditions—off-road recovery teams, agricultural haulers, construction contractors, and overlanding enthusiasts who tow consistently and require repeatable, safe hitching geometry. The combined aluminum and stainless construction resists corrosion from road salt, moisture, and weathering, extending service life in coastal environments and winter climates where trailer hitch degradation is otherwise accelerated. Weighing 20.45 pounds, the hitch maintains a compact footprint suitable for vehicles requiring low-profile towing solutions without sacrificing load-bearing capability.
