These are made 100% in Humboldt, Kansas. The factory supports great social initiatives in the community.

[@ThriftyGarage]

It's always great to see a quality American made product. 😊

[@bigds6692]

Awesome review! I have needed a new hitch for a while, and I am going to get one of these! Thanks for sharing!

[@jetboy770371]

Ball fitting just rotates on a film of lubricant in a hole with a slight clearance fit. Keep it clean and lubed.

[@laneblount9888]

I just bought one of these and I love the quality of it. I’ve only had it for a couple days so I haven’t towed with it yet. I also have then boltlock pin on my truck

[@ThriftyGarage]

You will definitely have to give us some more feedback after you have used it more.

[@ESC-AZ88]

Best review I’ve found

[@ThriftyGarage]

Glad to hear! Thanks for watching! Be sure and check the ultimate hitch shootout video if you are looking at a variety of hitches.

[@woofman4796]

i've had my 7 inch drop 3 ball b&w hitch for just over 3 years,, i love my hitch

[@ThriftyGarage]

It's good to hear that yours has worked so well!

[@woofman4796]

@@ThriftyGarage i live in hot/humid west central florida, once a year i take it out, wire brush and re-paint the shank flat black, twice a year or more if we go atving a lot, i wipe off and a white lithium grease the pins, call me anal, that's ok, i like my stuff to last

[@WheelchairLiving1]

@@ThriftyGarage what truck are you using the 7 inch drop on? Have a 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 4x4. Hesitant on it hitting even though I measured the drop I need. When adding the ball hanging underneath as well, it looks awfully low.

[@ThriftyGarage]

07 Classic 2500HD. It does have taller tires, a newer hitch which I calculate to be 1-2" higher than stock. That said I'm not sure if the 2500 sits higher than the 1500 or not.

[@WheelchairLiving1]

@@ThriftyGarage hitch height to top of high receiver is 20". But 6x12 utility trailer level, the bottom of coupler is 13 to 14 inches. 5 inch drop would still have the tongue a little high. 🤷‍♂️ I'll try it out and see if it hits

[@danlux4954]

You’ll need to buy more since they rust if you use it lots.

[@SultanofSpey]

I love it and I'm probably getting one since I've got this new multipro tailgate thing GMC has decided to force on us but I do have a couple questions. First, has anyone bought one of these and found a way to lock the pins in place so they can't be stolen? Second, if they can't be locked in place does B&W sell extras pins? I'd never hit the road without an extra set of locking pins and cotter pins with this thing. I have had entire hitches, balls, trailer spare tires, and carbon fiber drift boat oars stolen. I live in NY. Need I say more.

[@ThriftyGarage]

I believe B&W has a special hitch for the multipro tailgate that has a slight angle taken out of the top to prevent contact. I do think there are locking pins available.

[@chevy4x466]

I wish they had option for locking pins. I am ordering a sweet hitch, and buying cheap Chinese locking oins

[@getnautical9579]

Waiting on mine to come in. Got the 2.5” shank 7” drop tri ball. Hoping not to much of a drop for my 2500 chevy but cant wait to try it out

[@ThriftyGarage]

Sounds awesome!

[@coltenhesseltine9621]

Was your too much drop with the 7” cause I just got a 2500 and wondering what drop to buy?

[@getnautical9579]

@@coltenhesseltine9621 7” works perfect for mine. Have a 2020. Got the 5” originally but didn’t go low enough for one of my small trailers. Been all over east coast with it and hasn’t hit anything yet. Have around 11” of clearence o believe. High enough to clear all parking stops I’ve encountered

[@2015_Rubicnn]

Only issue I have with this hitch, but a lot of the square tubing from other manufacturers, is they fit so sloppy into the frame receiver. You have to use a roadmaster u clamp or other device to take the slop out. I wish the shank piece that slides into the trucks receiver was machined for a more precision fit, but I understand it comes down to the cost of manufacturing.

[@teedup-81]

I’ve got a dumb question… my weigh safe draw bar for my 6” drop actually measures 9”. Is B&W made the same due to how the “ball mount” is attached to draw bar?

[@ThriftyGarage]

Drop or rise is measured off the top of the receiver tube to the base of the ball mount.

[@edog92374]

What hitch do you like better weightsafe or this one

[@ThriftyGarage]

Honestly, depends on your intended use. B&W is more convenient to switch ball size as well as turn over. Weigh safe gives you the tongue weight but still has the other functions, just a little more work.

[@RH-qk5lt]

Yes they're really nice. But after 5 years and frequently spraying silicone lubricant and other WD-40 products on the pins, they're now completely unable to remove them. I'm not sure what else I could have done to prevent this.

[@tylerriddle4627]

Wd-40 isn’t a rust inhibitor it’s about worthless as a rust prevention good ol marine grease is best

[@RH-qk5lt]

@@tylerriddle4627 Grease smeared all over the pins would be best. But you're wrong about WD40. It absolutely is a rust inhibitor. WD....water displacement. It's not a miracle, silicone spray would probably be better. But WD40 would also be better than what I did, which was nothing. That was my point in the OP.

[@christophervienneau8125]

I see the gap it leaves for clearance but most importantly what happens when a 250lbs man is on the step of the pro tailgate???

[@ThriftyGarage]

Buy a real truck. That stupid tailgate just causes more problems. I wouldn’t leave the dealership without a standard tailgate being installed.

[@justcurious8263]

I could ask for stainless

[@arcmonkey]

Can u used this up side down

[@ThriftyGarage]

Yes, it can be used as a rise or drop hitch.

[@arcmonkey]

Thx

[@bdickey0581]

Just bought one. 1 of the 3 pins will remove. It's stuck in sto posititon

[@ThriftyGarage]

That’s surprising to hear (and disappointing). I’d reach out to B&W customer service. Sounds like a fluke in manufacturing. Our unit was flawless!

[@js4455dl]

That's why it comes with a sample of grease so every now then need to grease the pins,I've had mine for 6 years never had a problem

[@saumyaartandvideo5251]

Churu I

[@kboo74]

The fold and stow portion can be removed when on the receiver. Look at the sliding rail near the top and you will notice 2 notches. That’s where is comes out in the stowed position. Just bought mine today and did it from both hole positions on the shank. On some receivers you can remove and some you can’t. I have a 2019 Ram 1500 new body style. If you can remove it you need to contact B&W and they will send you a anti theft plate to prevent it from being removed if left attached or you can just remove the sliding portion with the balls when not using. I’m storing mine in the truck when not using it. Read the manual it’s all there.

[@ThriftyGarage]

It’s a great hitch!

[@kboo74]
