    Drop/Rise Guide

    XR Series Hitch: Drop, Rise & Tow Ratings

    Never exceed the lowest applicable gross trailer weight or tongue-weight rating of any component in your towing setup. Evaluate each limit separately. Attachment ratings do not increase the hitch base’s ratings. In the table, each pair means maximum trailer weight / maximum tongue weight in pounds. Attachment ratings do not increase the hitch base rating.

    The table covers the XR 8-hole frame. The existing XR frame specification provides 2 inches of additional drop and rise for the 10-hole frame; confirm the selected frame and attachment before towing.

    Your usable adjustment range depends on the selected attachment. Match its name below.

    Maximum attachment ratings in pounds: trailer weight / tongue weight.
    Attachment Drop / rise range Maximum trailer weight / tongue weight (lb)
    Combo Ball 4″ Rise to 4″ Drop 2-5/16″ ball: 20,000 / 2,000
    2″ ball: 10,000 / 1,000
    Drop Ball Level to 7-1/2″ Drop 2-5/16″ ball: 20,000 / 2,000
    2″ ball: 10,000 / 1,000
    Raised Ball 5″ Rise to 3″ Drop 2-5/16″ ball: 20,000 / 2,000
    2″ ball: 10,000 / 1,000
    Bolt-on Pintle Hook (SH-331-332, discontinued) 3.5″ Rise to 8.5″ Drop 20,000 / 2,000
    Pintle Hook (SH-333) 1″ Rise to 7″ Drop 20,000 / 2,000
    Raised Pintle Hook (SH-335) 3.5″ Rise to 4″ Drop 20,000 / 2,000
    Pintle & Ball — Complete SH-334-2 / SH-334-25 Attachments 1″ Rise to 7″ Drop Pintle mode (with proper ball installed): 16,000 lb GTW / 3,000 lb TW.
    2″ ball mode (SH-334-2): 12,000 lb GTW / 3,000 lb TW.
    2-5/16″ ball mode (SH-334-25): 16,000 lb GTW / 3,000 lb TW.
    Drawbar 4″ Rise to 4″ Drop 20,000 / 0
    Clevis Mount 1-1/2″ Rise to 6-1/2″ Drop 20,000 / 0

    Sway-control-tab mounts: Use the range and ball rating for the corresponding combo, drop or raised ball mount. Confirm compatibility with your selected hitch.

    No Ball Mount: A compatible, properly rated attachment is required for towing; the base alone does not provide a towing connection.

    Choose the drop or rise your trailer needs

    Measure on level ground with the trailer level. “Level” means zero drop or rise. How to choose the right drop hitch (opens in a new tab).

    Follow the lowest rating: These are attachment ratings, not a guarantee of your complete hitch capacity. Never exceed the lowest applicable trailer-weight or tongue-weight limit of the vehicle, receiver, hitch base, attachment, ball or trailer. A higher-rated attachment does not increase a lower-rated hitch base’s capacity. Use the marked tongue-weight rating; it is not calculated from towing capacity.

    Drawbar, cushioned drawbar and SH-360 clevis: 0 lb vertical tongue load; these mounts are not for use with a hitch ball.

    Legacy attachment: The bolt-on pintle hook SH-331-332 is discontinued. Its row is retained for existing owners; confirm the label and instructions for your exact attachment.

    Install and adjust your XR receiver hitch

    Use the instructions and video below to install the receiver shank and adjust your ball mount. Check the ratings of your complete towing setup before towing.

    Here you can download the Shocker XR Receiver Hitch installation instructions – Version 1.2.

    Current XR models and installation

    SH-XR100 / SH-XR100-10: 2-inch receiver, 12,000 lb GTW / 1,200 lb tongue weight. SH-XR125 / SH-XR125-10: 2-1/2-inch receiver, 16,000 lb GTW / 1,600 lb tongue weight. These limits apply to both 8-hole and 10-hole frames.

    Version 1.2, created October 10, 2026. This current-model guide excludes legacy SH-XR130. For that model, follow its original instructions and rating labels or contact our team.

    1. Match your equipment. Check receiver size, hitch/base labels, attachment and coupler ratings. Park on level ground; support and secure the trailer before adjusting the hitch.
    2. Install the XR base. Slide the matching shank into the receiver. Align a receiver pin hole and install a 5/8-inch hitch pin with its clip, or a compatible locking pin. Check clearance.
    3. Set the height. With the trailer supported, select drop or rise orientation. Position the compatible attachment to keep the loaded trailer level. Install BOTH attachment pins and secure both clips/locks.
    4. Connect and inspect. The trailer coupler must match the hitch-ball size. Latch and secure it. Connect safety chains, breakaway cable and lights as applicable. Check all pins, locks and clearance.
    5. Maintain. Inspect pins, clips, holes and mounts for wear or damage. Grease the hitch ball as directed by the coupler maker. Follow the separate instructions for pintle or sway attachments.
    TOWING CAPACITY IS LIMITED BY THE LOWEST-RATED COMPONENT.

    GTW = gross trailer weight; TW = tongue weight. Do not exceed any applicable rating for the tow vehicle, receiver, hitch, attachment, ball or pintle, trailer coupler or lunette ring, or trailer.

    *Sway-tab versions use the corresponding ball-mount limits. Sway arms require compatible mounting tabs; follow the sway-kit instructions. Drawbar/clevis are not for use with hitch ball.

    Optional sway-control setup

    Have an XR combo, raised or drop ball mount with sway-bar tabs? Those tabs provide the hitch-side connection for a compatible friction sway-control arm. You also need the appropriate connection on your trailer.

    Choose the hardware that fits your trailer—you do not need all three kits. Follow the applicable guide for installation, adjustment and operating precautions.

    Questions and answers of the customers

      I know you can flip the entire hitch to switch to give extra rise, but can you also flip the ball mount to give a little extra rise/drop?

      Q I know you can flip the entire hitch to switch to give extra rise, but can you also flip the ball...... Read more
      A That's a great question! Here's the breakdown for your Shocker XR Sway Control Drop Hitch: **The entire XR channel frame** can be flipped - that's the main hitch body that slides into your receiver. Flipping it gives you more drop or rise, which you already know. **The drop ball mount itself** (the attachment with the ball and sway tabs that slides into the channel) is **not designed to be flipped**. Here's why: - The drop ball mount is **welded with a specific offset** - the ball sits below the mounting plate to create drop. If you flipped it upside down, the ball would point upward but the geometry isn't intended for that orientation. - More importantly, your sway control tabs would end up in the wrong position relative to the ball and trailer frame, which could cause improper sway bar function. **What you *can* do:** You can adjust the ball mount **up and down through the 8 (or 10) adjustment holes** in the channel for fine-tuning - that gives you **0" to 7-1/2" of drop** on the 8-hole frame (or 0" to 9" on the 10-hole). **If you need rise instead of drop,** Shocker offers a **Raised Ball Mount with Sway Tabs** (SH-310125-2SC or SH-310125-25SC) that provides **5" of rise to 3" of drop** - designed specifically for that purpose. All Shocker mounts are hot-swappable; just pull the pins and swap! Would you like me to look up the raised sway mount option for you?

      The measurements from the pin holes are 10 1/2  and 9 1/2   to the center of the ball, and 4 inches from the mount holes to the center of the ball.
      3. What size pins are used to mount the ball mount to the shank? I'm really seeing if I can get a locking pin to be able to lock the ball mount to the shank

      The ball mount pin is 5/8" diameter.  It has a 4-1/2" span.  We do have ball mount locks here https://old.shockerhitch.com/product/locking-hitch-pins/

    1. Rated 5 out of 5

      Have not used it for towing yet. Initial thoughts, very well constructed, heavy duty hitch. Good thick steel. This was shipped in two packages. I got the drop hitch, but not the ball. This was not Shocker’s fault, FedEx dropped the ball big time. When I had no response from FedEx, I contacted Shocker and they shipped me the missing half that day. Great product and great customer service.
