BulletProof Hitches 2-Inch Aluminum Medium Duty 6-Inch Drop Rise Tow Hitch

The BulletProof Hitches AL206 is a Class IV, 2-inch shank aluminum drop/rise tow hitch rated for 14,000 lb trailer weight and 2,000 lb tongue weight, built from 6061-T6 aluminum for a rust-free, lightweight alternative to steel ball mounts. It is sized for vehicles with a receiver height of 20 to 21 inches (measured from the ground to the bottom of the receiver tube).

Lightweight Build Without the Capacity Compromise

6061-T6 aluminum construction keeps the AL206 noticeably lighter than comparable steel hitches while holding the same 14,000 lb tow and 2,000 lb tongue weight ratings. Drivers who remove and reinstall their ball mount frequently, whether swapping between tow vehicles or storing it between trips, get a practical weight benefit on every swap. The polished finish resists corrosion without paint or coating that can chip over time.

Eight Levels of Adjustment for a Level Tow

The AL206 offers 8 positions of height adjustment in 1-inch increments, so the ball height can be matched precisely to the trailer coupler rather than accepting a close-enough fit. Towing level reduces sway, distributes tongue weight correctly across the hitch and trailer axle, and puts less stress on the coupler over a long haul. The dual-ball head accepts both 2-inch and 2-5/16-inch couplers and is secured by two corrosion-resistant pins and R-clips included with the hitch.

Machined for a Precision Fit

The shank is machined to tight tolerances so it seats fully in the receiver tube without the slop or rattle common in cast or stamped alternatives. An overall length of 10-5/8 inches keeps the ball position close to the vehicle, which reduces the lever-arm effect on the receiver under load.

Specifications

Who This Is For and Isn't

The AL206 suits drivers with a 2-inch receiver tube and a receiver height between 20 and 21 inches who need a 6-inch drop or rise to tow level, including trucks, SUVs, and vans in that receiver-height range towing trailers, campers, or boats up to 14,000 lb.

This hitch does not fit vehicles with a receiver height outside the 20-to-21-inch range, and it is not compatible with 1-1/4-inch or 2-1/2-inch receiver tubes. It is not a weight-distribution head or a sway-control device.

Common Questions

What receiver tube size does this hitch require?

The BulletProof AL206 has a 2-inch shank and fits standard 2-inch receiver tubes. It is not compatible with 1-1/4-inch or 2-1/2-inch receivers.

What vehicle receiver height does this hitch fit?

The AL206 is designed for vehicles with a receiver height of 20 to 21 inches, measured from the ground to the bottom of the receiver tube. Vehicles outside that range will need a different drop or rise amount to tow level.

Is the dual ball included, or sold separately?

The AL206 ships with a dual-ball head that accepts both 2-inch and 2-5/16-inch couplers, along with two corrosion-resistant pins and R-clips to secure it. No separate ball purchase is required.

How many adjustment positions does this hitch offer?

The AL206 drop/rise hitch provides 8 positions of height adjustment in 1-inch increments, allowing the ball height to be set to match the trailer coupler for a level tow.

Does aluminum construction affect the towing capacity?

The AL206 is rated Class IV at 14,000 lb max trailer weight and 2,000 lb tongue weight. The 6061-T6 aluminum construction reduces the weight of the hitch itself without reducing the rated capacity.

Is there a California Proposition 65 warning for this product?

Yes. This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth anomalies, or other reproductive harm. This warning applies to California residents under Proposition 65.
