I can answer that....2" diameter ball. And the top of the ball needs to be 17-19" from the ground. 18" is ideal, mine is 17.75" and worked like a charm.

Learn from my mistakes, too.. I needed a two inch ball to pick up my new trailer, but when I got there the hitch wasn't a side close type, it was a top close with a lip around the ball area. My drop hitch didn't have enough clearance between the ball and the back of the dropped part, and I had to go get another drop hitch and ball to haul my treasure home. Luckily it was a Saturday and I got the tire store to tighten down the ball so I could make the 70 mile drive home.
Might want to take two hitches, two balls and go on a day places are open so that you can switch them if need be.

It definitely takes a 2" ball. You should check the web site I think the ball height should be 19" from the ground to top of the ball. I believe I was told "that is with a fat man on the bumper" but check the web site.

You probably should call the Bup place in Midland TX. Their contact info is on the website. Their website specifies 17-19" from the ground to the top of the ball. But call or email them. They are very nice.
