Hey Richard, that's a clever idea but it's not recommended that you only use two bolts to extend the Blue Ox High Low Adapter part # BX88235 out further as that would reduce capacity to an unknown level since it was never tested for that. How much extension are you wanting and what weight capacity? Also this extender isn't currently available.

I need about 10 inches from the center of the back hole to the center of the front hole. Looking to maintain 10k capacity.
