Hi Rick; are you looking for some kind of 2" hitch extension like # e48YR? The 2" shank on the bike rack will fit the 2" receiver on your trailer hitch. I'm not sure what else you might mean by an 11/16 piece of piping. If you could give me a little more information or clarify I would be happy to help just reply below.
