Hey Dustin, according to B and W the Continuum part # BW28FR can be used on taller frames like your 8 inch frame but you would just need to supply your own cylinder mounting hardware that is taller. So basically what that means is you'd need longer bolts for the bracket that attaches the cylinder to your frame. See picture.

Hey Dustin, how did things go with the B&W Continuum hitch on your Stealth Nomad trailer’s 8-inch frame? Were the longer bolts enough to get the cylinder bracket mounted securely? Your update could make it easier for others with taller frame rails.
