What type of hitch do I need on Dodge Durango 2016 for a 2019 Yamaha 242 se
 
You probably have 2” receiver but depending on the trailer setup you will be either 2 or 2 5/8th ball
I would just get a dual setup and do adjustable 4” drop.
reason being you want to see the trailer up as close to level
my truck is lifted so I have to run a. 7” drop for proper tow
 
Thank you very much

The ball for all Shorland'r Yamaha trailers is 2".
Buy it once. Weigh Safe.
I stopped at a little place called "etrailer" this evening - they are headquartered in Wentzville, MO, which is basically a St. Louis suburb - and picked up a nice little Weigh Safe!

Well, this thing it's not exactly little, lol:

But it seems to fit like a glove - and I have it exactly where I want it!

It does seem to rattle a little bit more than most, but that just seems to be the nature of this beast - w/lots of moving parts, I will need to figure something out to mitigate it.

First impressions - very good, nice quality parts. Will see how it performs, I'll update.
