Extra Long Ball Mount Approximately 14 Inches From Center of Hitch Pin to Center of Ball Hole

Updated 07/01/2020 | Published 05/09/2014

Question:

I am looking for an extra long ball mount that measures just a little longer than the 13 ¼ inch from center of pin hole to center of ball hole you offer. 14 inches would be ideal. A little longer would be OK. I think I saw one that measured 16 inches but that would be too long unless it is OK to drill a new hole at the desired length. I wish that you would list the length in the brief descriptions of the long ball mounts. To see length you have to click on each item individually. Even in the compare item mode all but one was simply listed as extra longinch and I had to click on each to get the hole to hole length. I suspect most people buying extra long ball mounts would want to know that figure up front. Thanks.

We offer an Extra Long Ball Mount, # D-28, which has a 4 inch rise and a 6 inch drop. The distance from the center of the pin hole to the center of the ball hole is 14-1/4 inches.

In order to maintain the structural integrity of the ball mount, making modifications like drilling a new hole is strongly discouraged and all warranties would be void.

Guess I should have told you I need a 3 or 4 inch drop also.
