Hey Chaz, yes the Reese ball mount part # RP82AR that you referenced can be used in the rise position. The torque rating for the ball's nut will be based on the hitch ball that you use and not the ball mount.

Hey Chaz, how did things go using the Reese ball mount in the rise position? Did the hitch ball torque specs work out once you matched them to your setup? Your update could make it easier for others working with the same mount.
