MAXXHAUL Triple Ball Mount Hitch for 2" Receiver — Black, 1-7/8"/2"/2-5/16" Balls with Tow Hook, 10,000 lb

If you haul different trailers or need a built-in recovery point, the MAXXHAUL 50231 combines three welded hitch balls and a steel tow hook in a single powder-coated mount. It’s engineered for Class III and IV applications, offering separate ratings for each ball size and a hollow shank designed to fit a standard 2" receiver. The welded construction and black finish resist corrosion, while the dual pin holes let you adjust ride height and positioning without swapping mounts.

Which trailer couplers can I tow with this triple ball mount?

The 50231 covers the most common coupler sizes so you can connect different trailers without changing hardware. Each welded ball has its own maximum tongue weight and gross trailer weight (GTW) rating, matching light to heavy towing needs.

• 1-7/8" ball: rated for 2,000 lb GTW — ideal for small utility or landscape trailers.
• 2" ball: rated for 6,000 lb GTW — suits medium trailers and many boat trailers.
• 2-5/16" ball: rated for 10,000 lb GTW — for heavier trailers and larger equipment hauls.

How does the built-in tow hook improve recovery and utility work?

The welded steel tow hook gives you a ready attachment point for straps, chains, or snatch straps during roadside recovery or equipment repositioning. Rated up to 10,000 lb pull capacity, it keeps towing and recovery gear centralized on the hitch assembly for quicker response and safer handling.

• Welded hook design reduces movement and flex under load.
• Works with standard shackles and recovery straps for versatile use.
• Integrated placement avoids added clutter on bumpers or frames.

Will this mount fit my vehicle and how do I install it?

The 50231 is built for vehicles with a 2" receiver and is compatible with Class III and IV hitch setups. Installation is straightforward: slide the hollow shank into the receiver, align one of the 5/8" pin holes to suit height, and secure with a hitch pin and clip or hitch bolt. The hollow shank keeps weight down while maintaining strength for rated towing capacities.

• Designed for standard 2" receivers on trucks and SUVs.
• Dual 5/8" pin holes allow for two mounting height options.
• 11" shank length provides clearance and stable engagement.

How durable is the finish and overall construction?

Constructed from alloy steel and finished with a black powder coat, this mount balances strength with corrosion resistance for long service life in road and weather exposure. Each ball and the hook are welded directly to the shank to reduce stress points and ensure consistent load distribution under tow.

• Powder-coated finish protects against rust and road grime.
• All welded assembly minimizes movement and loosening over time.
• Rated loads for each ball ensure predictable performance by application.

Who is this for: The MAXXHAUL 50231 is aimed at owners of multiple trailers, fleet operators, and anyone who needs a durable, no-fuss towing solution with built-in recovery capability. If you switch between light and heavy trailers or want a permanent tow hook without drilling or aftermarket racks, this triple ball mount simplifies trailer changes and keeps recovery hardware ready at the hitch.
