TOPTOW Trailer Hitch Ball Mount 8-inch Drop for 2-inch Receiver, Matte Black, 1-inch Ball

TOPTOW 64167 is an 8-inch drop trailer hitch ball mount engineered to fit standard 2"x2" receivers and provide a durable, corrosion-resistant towing connection for trucks, SUVs, and tractors.

This heavy-duty ball mount from TOPTOW gives you a dependable way to level trailers, campers, and utility loads by offering an 8" drop with a matching 6 3/4" rise measurement. Built from welded steel and finished in a matte-black powder coat, the 64167 combines a standard 1" ball opening and a 5/8" hitch pin hole on a 2" shank to work with common towing hardware and accessories. The design focuses on compatibility with industry-standard 2" receiver systems and straightforward installation so you can tow with confidence.

How does the 8-inch drop help when towing different trailers?

An 8-inch drop lowers the trailer tongue relative to the vehicle's hitch, which helps level trailers that sit higher at the coupler. Using the correct drop preserves towing geometry and improves handling by keeping the trailer and tow vehicle aligned.

• 8" drop measurement from top of shank to center of ball hole for taller trailer tongues
• 6 3/4" rise alternative for trailers lower than the tow hitch
• Helps maintain proper trailer angle and tongue weight distribution
• Compatible with standard ball mounts and hitch accessories

Will this ball mount fit my vehicle’s hitch receiver?

Yes—this TOPTOW ball mount is made to slide into a 2" x 2" receiver, which is the most common size found on trucks, SUVs, and utility vehicles. Confirm your vehicle has a 2" receiver and that your trailer ball and hitch pin match the mount’s fittings.

• Standard 2" x 2" shank for universal receiver compatibility
• 1" ball hole on the tongue for common trailer balls
• 5/8" hitch pin hole to accept standard pins or locks (sold separately)
• Works with most 2" shank accessories and drop/rise setups

What materials and finishes protect the mount from weather and wear?

The TOPTOW 64167 is constructed from heavy-gauge steel and coated in a matte-black powder coat to resist rust and abrasions. This coating extends the service life of the mount when exposed to road salt, moisture, and everyday use.

• Welded steel body for structural strength and load support
• Durable matte-black powder coat for corrosion resistance
• Solid ball hole and pin hole tolerances for secure connections
• Maintenance is simple—inspect, clean, and touch up finish as needed

How do I install and secure the TOPTOW 64167 safely?

Installation is straightforward: mount the trailer ball to the tongue, insert the 2" shank into your receiver, then secure it with a 5/8" hitch pin or a hitch lock. Always torque the trailer ball according to the ball manufacturer and verify all connections before every trip.

• Assemble trailer ball onto the tongue first following ball manufacturer specs
• Insert the 2" shank fully into the receiver tube
• Use a 5/8" hitch pin or locking pin (not included) to secure the mount
• Double-check torque, safety chains, and wiring before towing

Who is this for? The TOPTOW 64167 is ideal for drivers who tow campers, utility trailers, small equipment, or landscaping trailers that require an 8" drop to achieve a level tow. It suits owners of trucks, SUVs, and tractors with a standard 2" receiver who want a robust, easy-to-install mount with corrosion-resistant protection.
