Hey Gerry,
The Buyers Products 3" to 2" Receiver Tube Adapter # 337RTA302 uses a 5/8" hitch pin, but I'm assuming you probably have a 3/4" hitch pin hole on your 3" receiver? If so then the Curt Hitch Receiver Reducer Sleeves - 3" to 2-1/2" or 2" # C45408 would be a better option for you help eliminate play.
