Highly recommend!
This CURT Trailer Hitch Ball is exactly what I needed! The chrome finish looks great and is super durable. It feels incredibly solid and provides a secure connection for my trailer. The 1-7/8-inch diameter is perfect for my smaller loads, and the 2,000 lbs capacity is more than enough. It's a reliable, well-made hitch ball that I trust completely.

Dependable Performance and Quality Construction!
Right out of the box, the chrome finish of the hitch ball exudes a sense of durability and sturdiness. The construction feels robust, and it's clear that attention to detail has been given to its design. The 2,000 lbs weight capacity is perfect for my towing needs. It provides the confidence I need when hauling small trailers, utility trailers, or even our jetskis. I've found that the hitch ball offers a secure connection and smooth towing experience, even during turns and maneuvers. Installation was straightforward. The hitch ball fit snugly onto my hitch mount, and the included washer and nut secured it in place without any wobbling or play. The chrome plating not only adds a touch of visual appeal but also serves as a protective layer against corrosion and rust. I've used the hitch ball in various weather conditions, and it has held up exceptionally well without any signs of wear.

Holds up well even in nasty weather conditions
Using with a small trailer that needs a 1-7/8-Inch Diameter ball, this works perfectly, very strong, no issues tightening the nut (comes with a lock washer)

This item has a 5/8 x 1-5/8 shank not 3/4 x 1-5/8. that got it 4 not 5 stars
this seems to be a good product, however, I needed a 3/4 shank and received a 5/8 shank.
