Expert Reply:

The Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount # D210 is not offered with different amounts of drop from the ball platform to the receiver opening. It comes only in this particular size which, importantly, does not reduce your hitch's capacity the way most other adapters do. We do offer Curt's Dual Receiver Tube Adapter # D-192 which provides two 2-inch receiver opening, a top one for use with accessories like bike and cargo carriers and a bottom one that accepts either a tow bar shank or a 2-inch ball mount. This adapter does decrease your hitch rating by 50-percent. Hitch capacity is only reduced if the receiver portion only is used on D210.

If you need more space for your hitch ball to avoid it contacting the shank of the accessory, then you can select a ball mount with the required length (and weight rating) using the link provided. We offer extra-long ball mounts like # BM20 which is 13-1/4-inches long and rated for 10K.
