Adapter for 2 Inch Trailer Hitch to Get a 4 Inch Rise
Updated 09/08/2014 | Published 09/06/2014
Question:
I need something similar to this but not as an adapter. I need something that provides a 4inch lift. I have a 2inch receiver on the vehicle and will be attaching a 2inch to the receiver.

The best option for you is going to be Curt multipurpose ball mount # D210. Because it is not technically an adapter it will not reduce the tongue weight capacity of the trailer hitch. The 2 inch receiver part is 3-9/16 inches up from the top of the ball mount shank which is as close to 4 inches as we can get.
The receiver portion of this ball mount has a 350 pound capacity. It is only meant for accessories such as a bike rack or cargo carrier. The upper receiver portion cannot be used for towing.
