This ball definitely got loose on him. The hole is now oblong. Told him to buy a new receiver before this one really causes major issues. Doubt he will

Did he use a lockwasher? Some of those receivers look pretty light for their load rating, and I don't like the idea of receivers welded in China; I got one that's one big solid chunk of iron, no welds.

Yup, lock washer was on. Just after awhile they need to be re-torqued . A lot of force moving that ball back and forth. Especially on our shitty roads.

The one he needs is an 8" drop with a 2.5" receiver shank.
