Product Description
B&W Hitches Tow and Stow Adjustable Drop Hitch | 2" Receiver, 3" Drop, 3-1/2" Rise, Dual Ball 1-7/8" x 2" | Universal | Adjustable Drop Hitch, Stowing Feature When Not In Use, Dual Ball For Multiple Towing Possibilities, 10,000 GTW, 1,000 VTW
The B&W TS10035B is engineered to be the last receiver hitch you'll ever need. Delivering unparalleled versatility, this adjustable drop hitch perfectly fits standard 2" receivers and offers a 3" drop alongside a 3-1/2" rise, ensuring your trailer always rides level. With a robust towing capacity of 10,000 lbs Gross Trailer Weight (GTW) and 1,000 lbs Vertical Tow Weight (VTW), it is fully equipped to handle a wide variety of hauling demands, from local utility trailers to cross-country trips.
A defining feature of the Tow & Stow line is its ability to get completely out of the way when you aren't towing. By pulling two stainless steel pins, the swing arm rotates and stows neatly underneath the bumper. This innovative design protects your shins from painful impacts, saves valuable space in tight garages, and maintains the clean, professional appearance of your truck.
The multi-ball rotating setup eliminates the need to carry multiple loose ball mounts in your cab. The TS10035B features a dual ball configuration accommodating both 1-7/8" and 2" trailer couplers, making it ideal for users who frequently tow boat trailers, utility trailers, or lighter campers. When you need to switch trailers, simply pull the front pin, dial in your required ball size, and lock it back into place.
Security and durability are critical for premium towing accessories. The hitch is finished in an industry-leading, UV-resistant black powder coat to withstand harsh weather and prevent corrosion. To protect your investment, we highly recommend securing your hitch to your truck with a Trimax Locking Pin (#SXT3).
Fitment Notes & Warnings: This standard Tow & Stow is NOT compatible with GM MultiPro or Chevy MultiFlex tailgates, as the lowered inner step will impact the hitch. Do not use this hitch with sway-bar or weight distribution systems, as their specialized attachment pieces are incompatible. To prevent the stainless steel pins from seizing over time, regular maintenance requires applying a thin coating of white lithium grease to the pins.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if the 3" drop is right for my vehicle?
For most standard half-ton trucks and SUVs, the 3" drop is the appropriate Tow & Stow hitch size. However, if your vehicle features oversized tires, a lift kit, or your trailer sits at a significantly different height than your receiver, you should measure the required drop to ensure level towing.
Will this hitch work with my GM MultiPro/MultiFlex Tailgate?
No. The standard Tow & Stow hitches are not compatible with GM's multi-function tailgates. When the inner step is lowered, it will come into contact with this standard ball mount and cause costly damage. You will need to select a specific "GM MultiPro/MultiFlex" Tow & Stow model instead.
Can I use a sway-bar with the Tow & Stow?
No. Sway-bar systems and weight distribution systems utilize specialized attachment pieces that connect directly to the hitch receiver, which are not compatible with the Tow & Stow design.
What maintenance is required for this hitch?
To keep the hitch functioning smoothly, regularly clean the stainless steel pins and apply a thin coating of white lithium grease. Because metal parts are exposed to the elements, this regular maintenance is required to prevent the pins from seizing or rusting.
