I'M looking to buy a ball and hitch for my 07 Suburban. What I need to know is should I go with a 2" drop or another size?

My 07 Tahoe 4X4 seems very high. I would go with more drop than that. i borrowed a 2" drop and the trailer did not sit well.

What do you plan on towing? I believe to get the right drop for your hitch,you need thelevel trailers tongue height...

Right there. Check your tongue. Here's some chatter about the same subject...

average rule of thumb, Some things might vary this:
top of ball should be around 18" from the ground. should keep trailer around level......

Center of receiver hole is 24" on mine. Ballpark from there nets you about 5-6 inch drop.

Hummmmmmmm, I was just on GM Parts .com and they seem to have one for sale. Its a 1-1/4" rise, 4-3/8" drop

sounds right to me T07. You could always go with an adjustable if you have more than one trailer and have different tongue heights.

I tow about 6500 lbs with the '07 Tahoe. I use a 3" drop draw bar. With approximately 650 lbs of tongue weight and some cargo in the back of the truck, the rear drops a couple of more inches. No auto-level suspension. This turns out to be the perfect height for my trailer.

Does anyone know about the auto-ride suspension with a weight distributing hitch? Should it be set with the vehicle off or with the vehicle on after the suspension leveled? 26' travel trailer 6500#
