A towing system allows a trailer to be attached to a vehicle for additional cargo capacity and towing. There are a few key components required to properly connect the towing vehicle to the trailer for a safe towing setup. The first needed part is a trailer hitch, sometimes referred to as a tow hitch or receiver hitch, which bolts to the rear underside of the vehicle. A receiver hitch is a type of trailer hitch with a receiver tube, which allows for multiple attachments like ball mounts, bike racks, or drawbars. The alternative is a fixed-tongue hitch, which has a ball platform that can’t be removed. The most common trailer hitch attachment is a ball mount, which is a ball platform that slides into the hitch’s receiver tube and is secured by a hitch pin and clip. When setting up a towing system it is important to calculate the appropriate rise or drop from the hitch to the trailer so the correct ball mount is used for safe, level towing. A hitch ball is also needed, which is a ball attachment available in a number of sizes made for different trailer tongue mounts. The hitch ball is secured to the drawbar with a nut and provides a pivot point for the trailer coupler.
