Question:
I have a 2 3/4 distance from the center pin to the face of the receiver and the chain tabs impeding sliding a skid wheel on from below. Any recommendations on the best skid wheel in this situation?

Since the location of your hitch pin hole and the safety chain tabs don't allow you to use a skid wheel like part # UF48-979020 or # RM-050, the only other option that may work is if you welded a skid wheel like part # UF48-979021 onto the bottom of your hitch receiver. The only issue with this is that if you have a fairly hefty vehicle it may not hold up very well as there is a note not to install it on a diesel pusher motorhome.
