Hello Jose,
It is indeed true that the Curt Pintle Hook Mounting Plate # C48343 can only be used in the drop position; it cannot be used in the rise position. There is a similar, 8-hole pintle hook mounting plate which CAN be used in the rise position if you like, the B&W Pintle Hook Mounting Plate # BWPMHD14002.
You can secure this to your hitch using lock # e98880.
