DESCRIPTION
Product Overview
- The Adjustable Drop Hitch solves the most common towing frustration: mismatched trailer heights. With a 6-inch adjustment range in 1-inch increments, you can level any trailer — from a low boat trailer to a tall cargo hauler — without swapping hardware. Forged from premium aluminum with an oxide-protected finish, it delivers 12,000 lbs of towing capacity in a package that’s light enough to install with one hand but tough enough for years of heavy use.
- What sets this hitch apart is the dual anti-theft locking system. Most adjustable hitches secure only the receiver pin — this one locks both the receiver pin and the ball mount channel, so the entire assembly stays on your truck. Weatherproof keyhole covers keep moisture out of the lock cylinders. If you tow multiple trailers at different heights, this is the last hitch you’ll need to buy.
Key Features
- Forged from premium aluminum with an oxide-protected surface finish that resists rust, corrosion, and water damage far longer than standard powder-coated steel hitches. Light enough to handle one-handed but tough enough for 12,000 lbs.
- Two stainless steel locking pins secure both the hitch pin and the ball mount — not just one. Weatherproof keyhole covers keep moisture and debris out of the lock cylinders so they work when you need them. One key operates both locks.
- 6" drop to 6" rise lets you dial in perfect trailer leveling across multiple trailers without swapping hardware. Precision-milled shank slides smoothly through the receiver without the binding common on budget hitches.
- Rated to pull up to 12,000 lbs gross trailer weight with a 2-5/16" ball and 7,500 lbs with a 2" ball. Tested to meet SAE J684 towing standards — not an inflated marketing number.

FAQ
Q: What size ball do I need for this hitch?
A: This hitch comes with a pre-installed dual-ball head — a 2" ball on one side and a 2-5/16" ball on the other. Flip the mount 180° to switch between sizes. The 2-5/16" side supports the full 12,000 lbs GTW rating;the 2" side is rated for 7,500 lbs GTW.
Q: Will this hitch work with my lifted truck?
A: Yes — that’s exactly what the 6-inch drop is for. Measure from the top of your receiver tube to the ground, then from your trailer coupler (leveled) to the ground. The difference tells you the drop you need. This hitch covers anything up to a 6-inch drop.
Q: Can I use this with a weight distribution hitch?
A: The hitch platform is compatible with most WD systems, but confirm your WD head fits the shank dimensions. The 12,000 lbs GTW rating applies to weight-carrying mode — check your WD system for its own rating.
Q: Do I need two separate keys for the dual locks?
A: No. Both locks are keyed alike — one key operates both. Lock one pin to secure the hitch to your receiver, and the second to lock the ball mount to the adjustable channel. Leave the hitch on the truck without worrying about theft.
Q: Need a fixed ball mount or hitch lock to go with this?
A: If you tow one trailer consistently, our fixed 2" ball mount with 6,000 lbs GTW is a simpler option. For added security, pair this with a 5/8" anti-theft hitch lock and eliminate receiver rattle with our anti-rattle hitch tightener.

Verified buyerRunning between three rig sites every week, was burning through DEF in about 2 weeks. Getting 6 weeks per jug now. Regen lockouts used to cost me half a day in the field, that's done with.
Chris D.
Verified buyerGot four trucks on the ranch, did this one first to see how it'd go. Eight months in, no codes, pulls hay like she's new again. Other three are getting done before winter.
Travis M.
Verified buyerTowing the boat down to the Keys used to kill me at 11 mpg. Got 15.4 last trip, same boat, same route. Pipe looks stock from the outside, none of my buddies even noticed it's gone.
Mike R.
Verified buyerHauled my horses from Fort Worth up to Amarillo last month, got 17.8 empty on the way back. Was running around 13 before. Pulls a lot better up the grades too, didn't expect that part.
Jason T.
Verified buyerUsed to go into regen every 280 miles when I was loaded down, now I'm pushing 580 with no regen at all. EGTs run way cooler too pulling the skid steer. Wish I had done this sooner, honestly.
Brandon L.
Verified buyerBought it used and the previous guy had wiped the delete history clean. Got everything put back the right way, ran the protocol, passed smog first try. Truck finally drives like it should.

Fitment guaranteed or refundGot questions?
The stuff that keeps you up at night before you commit. Answered in plain talk by guys who actually wrench on these trucks.
A full mandrel-bent stainless DPF and CAT delete pipe, EGR block-off plates and gaskets, DEF delete components, all mounting hardware and clamps, and your preloaded tuner with the custom tune for your VIN. We don't ship anything you don't need, and we don't leave anything out that you do.
No. The custom tune disables the codes the deleted hardware would otherwise throw. Dash stays clean. If a real fault code pops up after install, call our line and a tech walks you through it. Usually it's a sensor that got unplugged during the wrench work, takes 5 minutes to sort out.
We pull your VIN before we ship. Engine, year, trim, cab config, all verified against the kit. If it doesn't fit your truck, you send it back and we either ship the right kit or refund you in full. Fitment is on us, not you. That's why we call it a fitment guarantee.
Most of our customers do. Average install is 2 to 4 hours with basic hand tools, sockets, ratchet, jack stands. You'll get the step-by-step install video emailed after purchase and a 24/7 phone line if you get stuck. If you can change your own oil, you can run our protocol.
Real custom files. Built in-house by guys who've been turning wrenches and writing tunes on Cummins, Duramax, and Powerstroke platforms for years. Every tune is dialed to your year, your engine, and how you actually drive the truck. No outsourced generic tunes pulled off a shared drive.
Once we've got the base files for your platform, dialing it in for your specific truck takes about 20 minutes. Charging $300 for that didn't sit right with us. We'd rather give you the better experience and earn the call when your buddy's truck needs help.
You call us. Real diesel techs, US-based, picking up the phone. We help with install troubleshooting, tune adjustments, fitment issues, codes, anything. We don't disappear after the sale, and the line doesn't go to voicemail. Phone number is at the bottom of every email and on every page of this site.
Yes. The custom tune is reversible, flash the stock file back through your tuner and the truck reads as factory again. The only thing that's permanent is the deleted hardware itself, but most buyers in the diesel community see a properly executed delete as a value-add, not a deduction. We can also ship the OEM-style reverse plates if you want to put the factory exhaust back on for resale.
Lifetime warranty on the stainless delete pipe, no rust-through, no cracks, ever. 2-year warranty on the EGR delete plates, gaskets, and hardware. If anything fails, we ship a replacement same day. The tuner itself carries the manufacturer warranty through EZ Lynk or HP Tuners.
Orders ship from Fort Worth within 1 to 2 business days. Free express shipping anywhere in the lower 48. Most orders land in 3 to 5 days. You'll get tracking the second it leaves the shop.
