BulletProof Hitches 3.0" Heavy Duty 20" Drop/Rise Hitch

The BulletProof Hitches 3.0" Heavy Duty 20" Drop/Rise Hitch is a 3.0-inch receiver hitch rated for 22,000 lb gross trailer weight and 3,000 lb tongue weight, with 20 inches of drop or rise across 11 adjustable ride heights, built for heavily lifted trucks that need to tow level without compromising capacity.

Level Tow at Any Lift Height

Eleven ride-height positions spanning 20 inches of drop or rise mean the hitch ball sits level with the trailer coupler regardless of how aggressively the truck is lifted. Towing out of level accelerates coupler wear, stresses the trailer frame, and degrades sway control; dialing in the correct height eliminates all three problems before leaving the driveway.

Dual Ball, Swapped in Seconds

The included 2" and 2-5/16" dual ball switches between sizes by pulling the 5/8" corrosion-resistant pins and R-clips. No tools are needed, and no separate ball mount is required. Covering both common coupler sizes in one head means the hitch works across boat trailers, RV couplers, utility trailers, and equipment haulers without carrying extra hardware.

Rated for Serious Loads

A 22,000 lb gross trailer weight rating and 3,000 lb tongue weight rating, verified to exceed SAE-J684 testing requirements, give this hitch capacity well above what most lifted trucks will ever need. That margin matters most when towing heavy equipment such as a skid steer, a loaded flatbed, or a large gooseneck, where staying inside the rating is non-negotiable.

Features

• 22,000 lb GTW / 3,000 lb TW: exceeds SAE-J684 testing requirements in both drop and rise orientation
• 20" drop or rise, 11 positions: wide adjustment range for heavily lifted trucks
• Included dual ball: 2" and 2-5/16" ball head with 5/8" corrosion-resistant pins and R-clips
• 3.0" receiver shank: fits 3.0-inch receiver tubes only
• BulletProof accessory compatible: accepts pintle attachment, step attachment, clevis attachments, and frame-mounted stabilizer bars (sold separately)

Specifications

Who This Is For and Isn't

This hitch suits owners of heavily lifted trucks or large RVs with a 3.0-inch receiver tube who need maximum drop or rise to tow level, particularly those towing heavy trailers, boats, or equipment where a high GTW rating is required.

This hitch does not fit standard 2-inch or 2.5-inch receiver tubes, which are found on the vast majority of trucks and SUVs. The 3.0-inch receiver is found only on some 2017 and newer Ford F-250, F-350, F-450, and F-550 models and some Class C and Class A RVs; confirm your receiver tube opening before ordering. The pintle attachment, step attachment, clevis attachments, and frame-mounted stabilizer bars are not included and are sold separately.

Common Questions

Will this hitch fit my truck?

The BulletProof 3.0" Heavy Duty Hitch requires a 3.0-inch receiver tube opening. That size is found only on some 2017 and newer Ford F-250, F-350, F-450, and F-550 trucks and some Class C and Class A RVs. The vast majority of trucks use a 2-inch receiver and are not compatible; measure the inside of your receiver tube before ordering.

Can I use this hitch in the rise position as well as the drop position?

Yes. The BulletProof 3.0" Heavy Duty 20" Drop/Rise Hitch is rated for the full 22,000 lb GTW and 3,000 lb tongue weight in both the drop and the rise orientation. Flip the shank to whichever direction levels the trailer, then select one of the 11 height positions.

What ball sizes are included, and how do I switch between them?

The hitch ships with a 2" and 2-5/16" dual ball head, two 5/8" corrosion-resistant pins, and R-clips. Switching ball sizes requires only pulling the pins and repositioning the dual ball; no tools are needed. Both pins and R-clips are included in the box.

What accessories are compatible with this hitch?

The BulletProof 3.0" Heavy Duty Hitch is compatible with the full BulletProof Hitches accessory line, including the Pintle Attachment, Step Attachment, Clevis Attachments, and Frame-Mounted Stabilizer Bars. All accessories are sold separately and are not included with the hitch.

Does this hitch meet any testing standards?

This hitch has been extensively tested and exceeds SAE-J684 requirements, the industry standard for trailer hitch assemblies covering strength, durability, and load ratings.

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 is required under California Proposition 65 for products sold into California.
