Thanks for the photos!
It looks like you have the Brophy Ball Mount for 2" Hitches # BM20 which means you just need to remove the hitch ball, flip the ball mount over, then reinstall the hitch ball to achieve your 3/4" desired rise. Be sure to use a torque wrench like part # ALL944001 to get the hitch ball torqued to the correct specs per the manufacturer.
If you need to use the ball mount in either orientation on a regular basis then I recommend checking out the Gen-Y Phantom Ball Mount # GY27VR as an alternative. Once you install the hitch ball on the platform you can easily adjust it up and down as well as flip the ball mount and use it for a rise situation without needing to remove and reinstall the hitch ball each time.
