Rec/Ball Kit Assy 2 5/16

The Rec/Ball Kit Assy 2 5/16 is a complete receiver hitch and ball kit assembly with a 2-5/16-inch hitch ball, available at Skipper B Trailers in Westwego, Louisiana. This kit includes the ball mount shank that slides into a standard 2-inch receiver and the larger 2-5/16-inch ball required by heavier trailers with the larger coupler size. The 2-5/16-inch ball is the heavy-duty ball standard — the larger diameter required by enclosed cargo trailers, dump trailers, heavy equipment trailers, and the largest tandem axle boat trailers that exceed the capacity of the standard 2-inch ball. The complete kit format provides the ball and mount matched and ready to use — no separate ball purchase, no torquing a ball onto a mount, no compatibility questions.

Louisiana operators towing heavy trailers across Interstate 10, Highway 90, the Westbank Expressway, and the roads between Westwego, Marrero, Harvey, Gretna, and job sites throughout Jefferson Parish and Greater New Orleans must match the ball size to the coupler on the trailer. A 2-5/16-inch coupler requires a 2-5/16-inch ball — a 2-inch ball doesn't fill the larger coupler socket and creates a dangerous connection that can separate under load. The larger ball provides greater surface contact between ball and coupler, distributing tongue weight and towing forces across a wider area for a stronger, more stable hitch connection. Heavy enclosed trailers loaded with tools and materials, dump trailers hauling fill or debris, equipment trailers carrying machinery, and the largest Magic Tilt tandem axle boat trailers carrying offshore rigs all spec the 2-5/16-inch coupler because the loads demand the larger connection. Whether you're a contractor setting up a hitch for a heavy enclosed or dump trailer, Captain Chris equipping a truck for towing the largest fleet boat trailers, Fishing Fanatic Frank upgrading to the correct ball for a new heavy tandem axle trailer, or any operator who needs the 2-5/16 ball kit, this assembly provides the complete setup.

At $34.99, this receiver and ball kit provides the complete heavy-duty hitch setup in one purchase. The 2-5/16-inch ball fits heavy trailer couplers, and the mount slides into a standard 2-inch receiver. Verify your trailer coupler size before ordering — 2-5/16 is not interchangeable with 2-inch. Perfect for heavy trailer hitching, new tow vehicle setup, ball mount upgrades, and any application requiring the 2-5/16-inch ball throughout Southeast Louisiana.
