Today, on our 2013 Toyota Tundra, we will be test fitting the converter ball, ball mount
adapter for the cushion weight distribution shank, rated at 5,000 pounds, part number
BA-1. Now, before we begin our test fit, we will first need to obtain a hitch height of
our vehicle, which is the measurement from the ground to the inside top of the receiver
tube and we will get a measurement of 19 inches. This measurement may vary, due to hitch style,
tire size or any other after-market accessories that will alter the hitch height of the vehicle.
Now, to begin our test fit with our converter ball cushion weight distribution shank already
installed on our vehicle, part number AMAC-1, we will begin our test fit by inserting the
ball mount adapter onto the downward part of the distribution shank. We will then insert
the pins and measure from the ground to the top of the ball platform and we will get a
measurement of about 12 inches. We can also flip the weight distribution shank over into
the rise position and then with the ball mount adapter attached to the weight distribution
shank, we can measure from the ground to the top of the ball platform and well get a measurement
of about 25 inches.
