IF I had the occasion of pulling some ultra short tire/wheel small lawn mower trailer, an adjustable ball mount would come in handy. Otherwise, really have no use for the expense of a fancy "adjustable" ball mount.
My sons lifted 4WD F150 has big 35" tires on it. Earlier this year, he was coming into town & we were to use his truck to pull a normal hitch height 18 ft open car trailer with a big log splitter strapped down on it. As it was, my son did not have a ball mount to slide into his factory hitch. He'd never pulled with it. I ended up picking up a 4" drop ball mount from Harbor Freight before he arrived. Upon sliding it in, the ball sat too low. Ended up using one of my long time ball mounts. Have several, have used them on every truck & SUV have owned over the last 35 years & they worked perfectly. Simple 1/2" drop ball mount with a 2" DrawTite ball. Also have an identical ball mount, one with a 2 5/16" ball that have used pulling an enclosed car trailer. my .02
