Description
The AlumaLite™ aluminum drop hitch with dual ball balances strength with weight savings to make towing and leveling a trailer easier than ever. The lightweight billet aluminum makes handling and installation of the shank straightforward and simple. The shank allows for 5-1/2″ of drop in precise, 1″ increments, making raising or lowering the 2″ or 2-5/16″ ball convenient and easy. The AlumaLite aluminum drop hitch is also universally compatible with a 2″ x 2″ hitch receiver with 5/8″ hitch pin holes.
A drop hitch is essential for towing any trailer with a different height than the tow vehicle. An imbalanced trailer can lead to improper weight distribution and cause the vehicle-trailer connection to sag or lift, leading to trailer sway and resulting in an accident. A drop hitch resolves this issue by compensating for differing vehicle-tailer heights and preventing uneven weight distribution across the vehicle-trailer connection, providing a safe and secure towing experience.
All CURT products are designed for reliable, safe towing and are built to last. The AlumaLite aluminum drop hitch is made from billet aluminum and features a polished aluminum finish that is stylish and easy to handle. Stringently tested for safety and universally compatible with all 2″ x 2″ hitches, it’s rated for towing up to 8,000 lbs. with its 2″ ball or up to 12,500 lbs. with its 2-5/16″ ball.
