Height of ball

966 Views 6 Replies 6 Participants Last post by  Roco
What is the optimal height of the ball off of the ground? I have an 07 4x4 KC, and the hitch / ball that I had on my last truck is too high on the Titan. I'm trying to decide of I need the 3.25" drop or the 5.25" drop. No mods & no lift. Thanks.

i have a 3.25" on my stock 06 4x4, the 5.25 would be too low imo although i do think the 3.25 is a little high but not too bad.

It's not about drop, it's what it takes to get the ball at the proper height for your trailer...Most common trailers are about 18"....
The trailer should set level or just stilly higher in the front.
Thanks guys. I'll measure after work today. I am tghinking the 3.25" drop will be close to 18" - maybe a little higher.

This is true...you'll need to measure the tongue height at level or slightly higher since trailers are all different and so is the truck. You could always get an adjustable hitch to be safe depending on your towing needs.

trailers should always be level... all your weight should be on all four wheels, not the back two.
