Seven adjustable ride heights let a single hitch serve a wide range of trailer-to-tow-vehicle height combinations, covering both drop and rise configurations up to 12 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSeven Ride Heights, One Hitch\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Extreme Duty hitch offers seven selectable ride heights across its 12-inch drop\/rise range, so the same unit can level a trailer whether the tow vehicle sits high on a lift or at stock ride height. Height changes are made by repositioning the dual-ball head, and no special tools are required. That flexibility means one hitch covers configurations that would otherwise require purchasing multiple fixed-drop bars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt Around the Connection Points\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn additional down bar runs between the channel and the gusset, reinforcing the area that takes the most stress during braking and surge. The included dual-ball head accepts both a 2-inch and a 2-5\/16-inch ball, covering the two most common trailer coupler sizes without a separate purchase. Two corrosion-resistant pins and R-clips secure the ball head and are included in the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass 5 rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e 36,000 lb maximum towing capacity and 6,000 lb tongue weight capacity\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e12-inch drop or rise:\u003c\/strong\u003e covers both drop and rise configurations in one adjustable unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeven adjustable ride heights:\u003c\/strong\u003e selectable without special tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual-ball head included:\u003c\/strong\u003e accepts 2-inch and 2-5\/16-inch balls\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReinforced gusset channel:\u003c\/strong\u003e additional down bar between the channel and the gusset\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorrosion-resistant hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e two pins and R-clips included to secure the ball head\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBulletProof Hitches accessory compatible:\u003c\/strong\u003e works with the full BulletProof Hitches accessory line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eED2512\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eReceiver Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2.5 inch\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eDrop\/Rise Range\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e12 inches (drop or rise)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eRide Height Positions\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e7\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eMax Towing Capacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e36,000 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eTongue Weight Capacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e6,000 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBall Sizes Included\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2 inch and 2-5\/16 inch (dual-ball head)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eHardware Included\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eDual-ball head, 2 corrosion-resistant pins, 2 R-clips\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eTesting Standard\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eMeets and exceeds SAE-J684\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShipping Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e84 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Is For and Isn't\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-yes\"\u003eThe Extreme Duty 12-Inch Drop\/Rise Hitch suits owners of heavy-duty trucks or commercial vehicles equipped with a 2.5-inch receiver who need a high-capacity, adjustable hitch to level a trailer across a wide range of vehicle and trailer heights.
