U-Haul PowerTow Trailer Hitch Ball Mount

This is a heavy-duty U-Haul PowerTow brand ball mount assembly, designed for towing applications using a standard 2-inch hitch receiver. The unit features a black powder-coated steel shank with a drop design, likely providing a 2-inch to 4-inch drop depending on orientation. It is fitted with a chrome-finished hitch ball, which appears to be either 2 inches or 2 5/16 inches in diameter. The top of the ball is stamped with specifications, including the U-Haul logo and weight ratings. The shank includes the original manufacturer labeling, detailing a 7,500 lb gross trailer weight (GTW) capacity and a 750 lb maximum tongue weight. The construction is solid forged or welded steel, typical of industrial towing equipment. Physically, the item shows moderate signs of use, including some scuffing on the top label and minor surface wear on the black finish and chrome ball, though it remains in functional condition without visible structural cracks or major rust. The 'PowerTow' branding suggests a modern production era, likely within the last 5-10 years. Craftsmanship is utility-grade, prioritizing structural integrity and safety standards over aesthetic refinement.
