It sounds like you're looking for a completely solid shank ball mount for a 2" hitch that also has an 8" drop; I am not aware of anything like this being on the market since there are some challenges with manufacturing a solid ball mount with that large of a drop. Your best bet is going to be using something like the Curt Ball Mount for 2" Hitches - 7" Rise, 8" Drop - 9-3/8" Long - 12,000 lbs # C45448, which has an 8" drop and is made from solid steel. This does have a 1-1/4" hole for the hitch ball like you're looking for.
I've linked all of our ball mounts with an 8" drop and 1-1/4" hitch ball hole for you to look through in case you wanted to see what else was available.
