Our Weigh Safe Hitches are available in a 4”, 6”, 8”, and 10” drop/rise. As far as specifications go, we recommend at least 11” of clearance from the bottom of your installed ball mount. Here is how you can determine which size drop will work best for your vehicle:

  1. Measure from the top of your tow vehicle to the ground (make sure you are on relatively level ground)
  2. Subtract drop height (all of our drops measure 3” longer than the listed drop length; 4” drop = 7” in total, 6” = 9” and so on)
  3. The total that you get after subtracting the drop is the amount of clearance you would have with that particular drop

22″ (top of receiver to ground) – 11″ (8″ drop + extra 3″) = 11″ (of clearance)

* It is important to know that this is a generic recommendation and there are other factors that could impact the distance from the bottom of the hitch to the ground.

Weigh Better

With an ordinary trailer hitch, a driver is left to guess or eyeball their tongue weight for balance and stability. With a Weigh Safe trailer hitch, the built-in gauge measures the tongue weight so the driver isn’t left to guess. This way, the driver can ensure their tongue weight is exactly within 10-15% of their gross trailer weight before hitting the road.

The result? A much safer and more enjoyable towing experience.

Why Does Having Proper Tongue Weight Matter?

  • Prevents trailer sway: ‘fishtailing’ or side-to-side movement
  • Creates a much safer and more enjoyable towing experience
  • Less wear and tear on your tow vehicle and trailer.

Great Safety Enchancement

The Weigh Safe Drop Hitch significantly increases towing safety by taking the guess work out of towing. You can precisely adjust your load, to place optimum weight on the ball. In an emergency, this may be the difference between losing control and recovering smoothly… I would call it very affordable insurance!
