Question:
The locking pin hole is perhaps 1 1/2 “ from the front of the hitch so the draw bar does not go in very far Does that sound right?

Expert Reply:
From the center of the hitch pin hole to the back part of the shank measures 2" for the Draw-Tite Ball Mount # 36071. While the Draw-Tite does fit a 1-1/4" hitch receiver, it's designed for at least a Class II receiver which is why that end portion is a little longer. Some Class I trailer hitches have a stop built in which will keep this option from working.
For a Class I ball mount that has the same dimensions we have the Curt # C45022. This measures 1-1/2" from the center of the hitch pin hole to the back of the shank. Attached is a review video where this measurement is given, and I've attached photos of both options for you to check out.
