When you’re towing a taller caravan or have limited clearance, the Trojan Hi Rise Towball Kit delivers reliable, stable connection with extra ground clearance. This 50mm towball is built to a 3500 kg rating, making it a solid choice for a wide range of caravans while staying compatible with common hitch setups.

Ideal for imported caravans and European couplings that require a higher ball position.

What makes this Trojan Hi Rise kit stand out?

• High-rise design for a clear advantage: 155 mm overall height provides extra clearance for tall tongue heights, helping to reduce hitch angle and improve towing stability across uneven terrain.
• Sturdy 50mm ball with a 3500 kg rating: Ready for demanding towing jobs while fitting standard 50mm couplings found on many caravans.
• Comprehensive kit: Includes the 50mm towball, mounting plate, locating nut and washer—everything you need for a secure, one-package upgrade. No separate parts required.
• Anti-rotation mounting plate: The kit features an anti-rotation plate to minimize ball rotation and ensure a tight, reliable connection during travel.
• Precise dimensions for confident fit: 65 mm threaded shaft length, and 55 mm from the bottom of the plate (that sits on the tongue) to under the head—information that helps verify compatibility with your drawbar setup.
• Flexible shank option: Available with 7/8" (22 mm) or 1" shank in broader Trojan ranges; the 7/8" variant is specifically listed with this high-rise kit, matching many common towing configurations.
