I picked the pod up last week and put it on my 2 inch ball. I started thinking is that the right size ball ? I had a 27 foot trailer a few years ago and had a 2 5/16 ball on it any help would be appreciated. ------------- sjf |

For the R-Pod, the 2"ball is sufficient, according to all the tow weight ratings I have seen for hitches.

2" is correct. ------------- Doug ~ '10 171 (2009-2015) ~ 2008 Salem ~ http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1723 - Pod instruction manual

| Not only is the 2" ball sufficient...the Pod's coupling is designed for a 2" ball! You would have to change the coupling to accommodate a 2 5/16" ball. The OEM coupling would not lock onto the larger diameter. |
