2015 1500 CC 4x4, 17" wheels with the factory good year off road tires - can anyone tell me what your using for your drop hitch, how much drop? I need to pick one up on the way home today, and don't have time to go home, measure, and come back into town...

Stock set up, just curious what you all are using on your trucks. I'll be pulling a 12X6 trailer with some mowers on it. Light load.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

I run a 6" drop for my utility/ATV trailer. I have an extra leaf and front torsion bars cranked up. Get a 2 piece adjustable hitch and you can find the height that you like.

My Larime rides on 20s and I pulled a medium sized wood chipper and a tandem axle car trailer with a tri-ball, so no drop on the hitch and I didn't have any problems with the hitch being too high.

Thanks for the replies! Unfortunately, I didn't see them until after I had already purchased a hitch, and the store I was in didn't have any of that fancy adjustable stuff! That would be ideal, but I'm concerned that it may drag some on a stock setup?

I selected a 4" drop. It seemed to do what I wanted it to do, but I'm not happy with how far it sticks out. I usually leave my hitch in the receiver all the time.

4" pulled a zero turn okay, but if I pull anything with some tongue weight, I think I'll have to do something like crunkfrunk mentioned, with no drop.

Thanks again for your replies. Anyone else that can add too the opinions on the best hitch set up are encouraged to post.

B&W Tow and Stow hitch. Fully adjustable, 2 and 2-5/16 ball and it will fold under your pickup if you don't want it sticking out. Best of all their made right here in Kansas . .

You want the hitch as close to the mid /top part of the Rear end that way it keep's the weight where it should be . At least that is what I have Always been told to do.
