This heavy-duty ball mount from Orion Motor Tech is a straightforward, ready-to-use towing solution engineered for light‑truck and SUV owners who need reliable performance without complicated setup. Built to meet Class III expectations and tested to SAE J684, the mount couples a powder-coated arm with a zinc-plated 40Cr steel ball and ships with the pin and clip included. It’s designed to handle trailer hookups from campers and utility trailers to boats while resisting road and weather exposure.

Will this hitch fit my vehicle and trailer?

The mount fits any vehicle with a standard 2" receiver and uses a 2" hitch ball to match many common trailer couplers. Because it’s reversible, you can switch between a 2" drop and a 3/4" rise to better align trailer tongue height for level towing.

• Receiver size: 2" standard for Class III receivers
• Ball size: 2" coupler compatibility
• Adjustability: flip to choose 2" drop or 3/4" rise
• Pin & clip included for immediate installation

How much weight can I safely tow with this mount?
