Hey Eric,
When using the Aluma Tow Ball Mount in the stowed position there are 2 different measurements. If you are using the first hitch pin hole it will protrude 5". If you are to use the 2nd hitch pin hole the ball mount will protrude 7" when in the stowed position.
How much clearance do you have or need with that multi-pro?
