Helpful Expert Reply:

I do have a potential option for you, but we do not carry a 4" long extension for a 2" hitch. The shortest extension we carry is the Yakima # Y69VR which is a 7-1/4" extension. From there everything we have is 8" or longer.

Please note that using a hitch extender will reduce your hitches carrying capacity by 50%.
