Ball size
I just purchased a HW213, I am picking it up tomorrow. Does anyone know what size of a ball I will need for my hitch?

Thanks,
Hobo Mo

2 5/16


SORRY... maybe 2"

I thought all trailers over 2,000# were 2 5/16 but it appears that I am wrong????

your dealer probably has a selection of balls available when you get there

A-frame trailers are not travel trailers.
