It fits any standard 2\" receiver and ships with a dual-ball head (2\" and 2-5\/16\"), two corrosion-resistant pins, and R-clips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFive Adjustable Ride Heights\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HD208 offers five ride-height positions so the hitch ball sits level with the trailer coupler whether the tow vehicle sits high or low. The shank flips from drop to rise orientation without any loss of rated capacity, so one hitch covers trucks, SUVs, and lifted rigs that would otherwise need separate hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eClass 4 Capacity, SAE-J684 Tested\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 22,000 lb gross towing capacity and 3,000 lb tongue weight rating put the HD208 in Class 4 territory, and BulletProof Hitches tests it to exceed SAE-J684 requirements rather than simply meeting them. That margin matters when loads are at the upper end of what the tow vehicle allows, where a hitch that only meets the minimum standard leaves no room for real-world variation in load distribution or road shock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDual-Ball Head and Corrosion-Resistant Hardware\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe included dual-ball head carries both a 2\" and a 2-5\/16\" ball on a single mount, eliminating the need to swap balls between trailers. Two corrosion-resistant pins and R-clips secure the ball head and the shank; the same pin design is compatible with the full BulletProof Hitches accessory line, so anti-theft locks and other accessories sold separately for that system will fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass 4 rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e 22,000 lb gross towing capacity and 3,000 lb tongue weight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSAE-J684 tested:\u003c\/strong\u003e exceeds the standard, not just meets it\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFive ride-height positions:\u003c\/strong\u003e adjustable drop or rise without capacity reduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual-ball head included:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2\" and 2-5\/16\" balls on one mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorrosion-resistant pins and R-clips:\u003c\/strong\u003e two sets included\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBulletProof Hitches accessory compatible:\u003c\/strong\u003e works with the full 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\u003eHD208\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShank diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2.0\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eDrop \/ rise\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e8\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eRide-height positions\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e5\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eHitch class\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eClass 4\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eGross towing capacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e22,000 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eTongue weight capacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e3,000 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBall sizes included\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2\" and 2-5\/16\" (dual-ball head)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eHardware included\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2 corrosion-resistant pins, R-clips\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShipping weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e43 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eTesting standard\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eExceeds SAE-J684\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eReceiver size\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2\" standard receiver\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 HD208 suits drivers of trucks, SUVs, or other tow vehicles with a standard 2\" receiver who need an 8\" height correction (drop or rise) and a Class 4 capacity rating for heavy trailers, fifth-wheel adapters, or gooseneck setups within the stated limits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-no\"\u003eThe HD208 requires a 2\" receiver; it does not fit 1-1\/4\" or 2-1\/2\" receivers.
