Hey Glenn, unfortunately we do not. We have high to low adapters like the Brophy Hitch Adapter # HT5R which is a 1 1/4" to 2" adapter, but nothing that goes from 1 1/4" to 1 1/4". I'd instead recommend measuring your rise and drop to find out what you need, and order a ball mount that has the rise/drop you need, that way you don't need the adapter.

I've attached a quick FAQ which goes into how you can measure your rise/drop for you to check out. If you need a little help after you've measured, let me know what the measurement is and I'd be happy to help!

Thanks for the response. Please explain to me how a ball hitch riser will help connect my inch and a quarter bike rack to my ancient a quarter receiver, which is too close

@Glrnn Okay so that makes it sound like the bike rack is too close to the car which you'd want a hitch extender not a high to low adapter. I read your initial question as you're trying to connect two things that are of opposite heights, but it sounds now like the two are just too close. If that's the case, then you'd want something like # e68YR which will push your bike rack out 7" more inches from the vehicle, hopefully giving you the clearance you need. Please note as well that whenever you use a hitch adapter, that your hitch capacity is going to be cut by 50%. If you have any other questions I'd be happy to answer them!
