Curt Pintle Hook Mounting Plate for 2" Hitches - 10-1/4" Shank - 14 Hole - 10,000 lbs Item # C48342 is going to allow for the most drop of all the pintle hook mounting plates so it would be the best bet. Then using Curt Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Hitch Ball - Bolt On - 16,000 lbs Item # C48200 will get you to roughly 10 inches of drop.
