Using FLASH™ STEEL

Review this model’s features and installation instructions alongside the ratings and measurements of your towing setup.

Hitch Info

Solid-Steel Construction

The solid-steel body and protective finish support a durable adjustable mount. Select the exact receiver and ball configuration for the load; the family’s highest rating does not apply to every model or hitch ball.

When You Need Weight Distribution or Sway Control

FLASH™ STEEL is an adjustable ball mount. If your towing setup calls for weight distribution and integrated sway control, compare the Fastway e2 hitch and follow your tow-vehicle and trailer manufacturers’ requirements.

Hitch Info

Set Up Your FLASH™ STEEL

Choose the receiver and hitch-ball configuration for your trailer, then set the required height. Follow the model’s instructions for adjustment, retention hardware, and pre-trip checks.

Check Fit Before You Tow

Verify receiver fit, coupler height, loaded weights, and clearance through the towing setup’s range of movement. Secure all pins and locking hardware as instructed.

Hitch Info

Match the Mount to the Towing Setup

Measure the required rise or drop with the loaded trailer level. Confirm receiver dimensions, coupler ball size, loaded trailer and tongue weights, and vehicle clearance. A model’s drop selection alone does not establish compatibility with a particular truck or trailer.

Read the FLASH™ STEEL instructions before installing or towing.
