Convert-A-Ball Trailer Hitch Parts



With the proper equipment, towing a trailer is a relatively simple and safe task. However, the need to connect different trailers to one or several tow vehicles, some discrepancy between hitches and couplers, or other specific towing requirements are among the factors that can make you search out a special or more conventional solution. Convert-A-Ball Distributing is a company that offers a variety of useful products developed to address various towing issues and make the whole towing process much easier.

The Original Convert-A-Ball is one of the main lineups, which includes interchangeable balls and shanks sold individually or in kits. Each kit can match two or three sizes of balls with an appropriate shank, which enables you to use them with different hitch couplers. Available in several diameters, the balls have a pin to secure them on a standard or long shank. All of these parts are made of nickel-plated or stainless steel. Another popular lineup includes Convert-A-Ball 5th-wheel-to-gooseneck adapters; as the name implies, they enable you to connect a 5th wheel hitch and a gooseneck ball.

Moreover, Convert-A-Ball gooseneck adapters include fully adjustable models allowing you to move from 12 to 16 inches in height from the top of the ball to the kingpin plate. Besides, these adapters come with an inner cushioning system meant to reduce road impacts and vibrations. The same benefit is also provided by cushioned ball mounts having a built-in polyurethane cushioning mechanism. Reducing bouncing and vibrations, it acts as a shock damper and helps to protect the driveline, trailer contents, and hitch assembly. If you have unique towing needs, you can choose from specialty hitches; all of the abovementioned products are available in our online store.

solid stainless convertaball
I've been using this system since they first came on the market and love them. They make changing balls so easy and in 25 years of using them I have never had any issues. I just had to buy another set because I have misplaced my balls. I switched to the stainless version when they first hit the market and use them for hauling all manner of trailers boats, cars, etc. Nothing better on the market. This was my first purchase from CARiD and they are outstanding my balls arrived in three days and I live on the west coast. Thank you CARiD.
