About Convert-A-Ball
Founded in 1985 by Bob and Vera Van Vleet in Sidney, Nebraska, Convert-A-Ball is a family-owned company that has spent decades solving one of towing's most common frustrations: the need to swap out different hitch ball sizes for different trailers. Their answer was the Interchangeable Hitch Ball System — a patented design that lets drivers switch between ball diameters in seconds without removing the shank or drawbar from the receiver. That single innovation established Convert-A-Ball as a trusted name in the towing industry, and the brand has been building on that legacy ever since.
The Original Interchangeable Hitch Ball System
At the heart of the Convert-A-Ball lineup are their trailer balls — available in nickel-plated and stainless steel finishes, with 1-inch shanks compatible across their entire ball family. Whether you need a 1-7/8", 2", or 2-5/16" ball diameter, the system lets you snap in the right ball for your trailer without tools. Sold as single balls or as two- and three-ball sets, these products meet or exceed THMA V-5 and SAE J-684 ratings, making them a dependable choice for everyday towers and serious haulers alike. The non-electric nickel-plating technology used on many models provides a corrosion- and rust-resistant finish that holds up to demanding road conditions.
Cushioned Ball Mounts Built for the Real World
Convert-A-Ball is also recognized as the original designer of the Cushioned Ball Mount — a category that addresses another pain point for frequent towers. Their ball mounts and receivers feature built-in cushioning that reduces shock and vibration transferred between the tow vehicle and trailer, improving ride quality for both driver and cargo. Available for standard 2" receiver hitches in a range of drop and rise configurations — from mild 2" drops to aggressive 12" drops — these mounts are engineered to level a wide variety of trailer types, from boat trailers to utility haulers. Heavy-duty variants are rated up to 14,000 lbs., giving working truck owners a reliable option for serious loads.
Fifth Wheel & Gooseneck Adapters
Beyond balls and mounts, Convert-A-Ball extends its cushioning philosophy into fifth wheel and gooseneck towing. Their cushioned fifth wheel-to-gooseneck coupler adapters allow owners of gooseneck-equipped trucks to tow fifth wheel trailers, with height-adjustable and offset models available for versatile fitment. This specialized product line reflects the brand's broader mission: giving towers flexible, confidence-inspiring solutions no matter the application.
Why Towers Trust Convert-A-Ball
Decades of focused product development, American manufacturing, and a family-owned commitment to quality have made Convert-A-Ball a go-to brand for everyone from weekend campers to professional haulers. Their products are engineered to simplify the towing experience — fewer tools, faster changes, and hardware that's built to last. For anyone who regularly hitches up more than one trailer type, Convert-A-Ball offers a smarter way to tow.
