The Details: Drop Hitch & Ball Mount Installation at Direct Offroad

At Direct Offroad, we ensure that your drop hitch and ball mount installation is perfectly matched to your vehicle and towing requirements. We start by assessing your towing needs—whether it’s a boat, trailer, or large equipment—to recommend the correct drop hitch and ball mount combination. For those towing heavy loads, we often suggest adjustable drop hitches, allowing you to match the hitch height precisely to the trailer, ensuring a level tow and better control.

We also make sure that every component, including ball mounts, pins, clips, and safety chains, is installed securely. For added safety, we verify that your towing setup meets or exceeds the weight rating required for your vehicle and load. Whether you choose a basic fixed hitch or an advanced adjustable one, we prioritize safety and durability to keep you on the road without issues.

Weigh Safe Drop Hitches

The Weigh Safe Drop Hitch is the one and only trailer hitch with a built-in scale that measures load before you hit the road, resulting in a much safer and enjoyable towing experience. Before this ball mount, gauging your trailer’s tongue weight was a hassle. You had to rely on inefficient bathroom scales, make a trip to the weigh station, or purchase a separate tongue weight scale. But with the Weigh Safe’s built-in scale, measuring your tongue weight is as easy as coupling your trailer to your ball mount. After verifying that your drop hitch receiver is the correct height, simply hook-up your trailer to the Weigh Safe ball mount just as you would any other ball mount. The Weigh Safe Drop Hitch comes in 4-inch6-inch8-inch, and 10-inch options.

What size drop hitch do I need?

The size of the drop hitch depends on your vehicle’s height and the trailer you’re towing. We’ll help you determine the perfect drop size to ensure a level tow and safe handling.

Can I use the same ball mount for different trailers?

If the trailers are similar in weight and hitch height, you may be able to use the same ball mount. However, adjustable ball mounts offer more flexibility when towing different trailers.

What is the towing capacity of my drop hitch?

Towing capacity varies by hitch model and brand. We’ll ensure that the drop hitch and ball mount we install match your vehicle’s towing capacity and meet safety standards.

Do you offer adjustable drop hitches?

Yes, we install adjustable drop hitches that allow for flexibility in height, making them ideal for those who tow a variety of trailers with different hitch heights.

Can you install additional towing components, like safety chains or trailer brake controllers?

Absolutely. In addition to hitches and ball mounts, we can install safety chains, trailer brake controllers, and other towing components to complete your setup.
