I had our warehouse measure the BulletProof Hitches Adjustable 2-Ball Mount for 2" Hitch - 4" Drop/Rise - 14,000 lbs # MD204 you were looking at and from where the gusset meets the shank to the center of the closest hitch pin hole is 3-1/2", and to the center of the of the farther hitch pin holes is 5" as you can see in the included diagram.
I included a video of the # MD204 for you to take a look at.
