TOPTOW Trailer Hitch Ball Mount 8-inch Drop for 2" Receiver — Matte Black, Heavy-Duty

The TOPTOW 64167 trailer hitch ball mount is an 8-inch drop, heavy-duty 2" x 2" shank mount finished in matte black, designed to fit standard 2-inch hitch receivers for safe towing alignment.

This ball mount brings a straightforward solution for dropping or raising your trailer tongue to the correct towing height without complicated adapters. Built with an industry-standard 2" x 2" receiver shank, a 1" ball hole in the tongue, and a 5/8" hitch pin hole, the unit is engineered to pair with common trailer balls and hitch pins (sold separately). Its durable steel construction and matte-black powder coat resist corrosion and daily wear from road use.

How does the 8-inch drop and 6-3/4-inch rise help with trailer alignment?

The offset dimensions let you match the towing vehicle’s hitch height to the trailer’s coupler height, creating a level towing stance which improves handling and reduces stress on the trailer and tow vehicle. Use the drop or rise position as needed based on vehicle and trailer measurements.

• 8-inch drop positions trailers lower for taller truck beds or SUVs.
• 6-3/4-inch rise is available when reversing orientation for lower bed vehicles.
• Helps keep the trailer and tow vehicle level for safer towing dynamics.

What receiver and hardware does this mount fit?

This TOPTOW ball mount is designed for a standard 2" by 2" hitch receiver—the most common size on light trucks, SUVs, and many trailers. It accepts most 2" shank hitch balls and secures with a 5/8" hitch pin or locking pin for theft prevention and stability.

• Fits standard 2" x 2" receiver openings on trucks, SUVs, and trailers.
• 1" ball hole accommodates widely used 1" diameter hitch balls.
• 5/8" hitch pin hole works with standard locking pins or clips (pin sold separately).

How durable is the TOPTOW matte-black finish and steel construction?

The mount is formed from heavy-duty steel and coated with a matte black powder coat to protect against rust, chipping, and abrasion from road debris. This finish increases longevity for regular towing use and outdoor storage, though routine inspection and basic maintenance are recommended to maximize service life.

• Steel construction for strong load-bearing capacity and structural reliability.
• Matte black powder coat provides corrosion resistance and scratch protection.
• Simple cleaning and periodic lubrication of contact points help prevent wear.

How do I install and secure the ball mount for safe towing?

Installation is a quick process: assemble a compatible trailer ball onto the tongue, insert the 2" shank into your vehicle’s receiver, and lock it with a 5/8" hitch pin or a keyed trailer hitch lock for added security. Verify torque on the trailer ball and check that the pin and clip or lock are fully engaged before towing.

• Mount the trailer ball to the tongue and tighten to manufacturer torque specs.
• Slide the 2" shank into the vehicle receiver and align the hitch pin holes.
• Secure with a 5/8" hitch pin or locking hitch pin (not included) and confirm firm engagement.

Who this is for: The TOPTOW 64167 ball mount is suitable for homeowners, contractors, farmers, and recreational vehicle owners who need a dependable, easy-to-use solution to level trailers with pickup trucks, SUVs, or tractors. It’s a practical choice when you require a rugged, corrosion-resistant mount that works with common 2" ball and hitch-pin hardware for everyday towing tasks.
