Measuring Rise and Length for Drawbars
Updated 08/29/2017 | Published 08/28/2017
Question:
1) Regarding 1-1/4 inch draw bars, your specs say rise and long length. From where do you measure each of those specifications? 2) Do you sell flat feet for trailer jacks by themselves, I desire to swap the wheel for a flat foot on the trailer jack? Thank you

Both rise and drop are measured from the top of the drawbar's shank to the top of the hitch ball platform. The length of the drawbar is measured from the center of the hitch pin hole to the center of the hitch ball hole. I've added a link to a help article on ball mounts which you may find useful, as well as a link to our page with each of our 1-1/4 inch ball mounts.
As for trailer jack feet, we do carry individual footplates, such as the Removable Steel Foot with Pin for A-Frame Trailer Jacks by Dutton-Lainson # DL22542.
I've added a link to our page with each of our footplates on it for you to take a look at.
