BulletProof Hitches 2.0 Aluminum Medium Duty 2-Inch Drop Rise Hitch with Stainless Dual Ball

The BulletProof Hitches 2.0 Aluminum Medium Duty Hitch is a 2-inch shank, 2-inch drop/rise ball mount built from 6061-T6 aluminum with a hardened stainless steel dual ball (2" and 2-5/16"), rated for up to 14,000 lbs trailer weight and 2,000 lbs tongue weight on the 2-5/16" ball, and 10,000 lbs trailer weight and 2,000 lbs tongue weight on the 2" ball. It is designed for trucks with a receiver height of 16 to 17 inches, measured from level ground to the bottom of the receiver tube.

Aluminum Construction Without the Weight Penalty

The hitch body is machined from 6061-T6 aluminum, a grade chosen for its strength-to-weight ratio. Machining to tight tolerances means the shank seats snugly in the receiver tube without the slop that can cause noise or wear over time. For tow rigs where every pound of payload matters, a lighter hitch body directly translates to more usable capacity.

Five Levels of Adjustment for a Level Tow

The dual ball head adjusts in 1-inch increments across five positions, so the same hitch works as the receiver height changes between vehicles or as suspension lift and load alter the effective receiver height. Towing level reduces trailer sway and brake wear, and the ability to dial in the drop or rise without buying a second hitch saves cost over time.

Stainless Dual Ball, Corrosion-Resistant Hardware

The hardened stainless steel dual ball carries both a 2" and a 2-5/16" ball on a single head, covering the two most common trailer coupler sizes without swapping parts. Two 5/8" corrosion-resistant pins and R-clips are included to secure the ball head in the channel. Stainless construction on the ball and hardware resists rust in wet or salty environments where a chrome-plated ball would begin to pit.

Specifications

Who This Is For and Isn't

This hitch suits truck and SUV owners who tow trailers with 2" or 2-5/16" couplers and need a lightweight, adjustable drop/rise mount for a 2-inch receiver. It works best on vehicles with a receiver height between 16 and 17 inches and is rated for Class IV towing loads.

This hitch is not compatible with BulletProof Hitches accessories designed for their standard steel hitch line. Only one BulletProof Locking Pin is compatible with the aluminum dual ball mount; additional locking pins will not fit. The locking pin is sold separately and is not included.

Common Questions

What ball sizes does this hitch include?

The BulletProof Aluminum Medium Duty Hitch comes with a single hardened stainless steel dual ball head carrying both a 2-inch and a 2-5/16-inch ball. No additional ball purchase is required to cover either coupler size.

How many adjustment positions does the drop/rise offer?

The dual ball head adjusts across five positions in 1-inch increments, allowing the hitch to be set as a drop or a rise depending on the receiver height of the tow vehicle and the coupler height of the trailer.

What receiver height is this hitch designed for?

The BulletProof Aluminum Medium Duty Hitch is designed for vehicles with a receiver height of 16 to 17 inches, measured from level ground to the bottom of the receiver tube. Vehicles with receiver heights outside that range may require a different drop/rise amount.

Is a locking pin included, and can I use BulletProof accessories with this hitch?

A locking pin is not included with the BulletProof Aluminum Medium Duty Hitch and is sold separately. Only one BulletProof Locking Pin model is compatible with the aluminum dual ball mount. This hitch is also not compatible with BulletProof Hitches accessories designed for their standard steel hitch line.

Does this hitch require a California Proposition 65 warning?

Yes. California residents should be aware that this product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth anomalies, or other reproductive harm, per Proposition 65 requirements.
