When you are towing a trailer, the last thing you want is for the towball to come loose. This can not only be dangerous, but it can also damage your vehicle and the trailer. Luckily, tightening a towball is a relatively easy process that anyone can do with the right tools.
The first step is to locate the nut on the back of the towball. This is usually located under a protective cover. Once you have found it, use an appropriate wrench to loosen it. Next, take a look at the condition of the washer. If it is damaged or bent in any way, it should be replaced before proceeding.
Now, simply tighten the nut until it is snug against the washer. Be careful not to over-tighten as this could damage both the towball and your vehicle's receiver hitch. That's all there is to it! By following these simple steps, you can ensure that your towball will stay securely in place while you're on the road.
