8 Inch Drop Ball Mount with Longer Shank for Attachment of Towing Bike Rack
Question:
I am looking for an 8 inch drop, extended length ball mount for a 2inch receiver on a Class A motorhome. I need a few extra inches of exposed shank on the ball mount to mount a bicycle rack. Cant seem to find one, other than the Curt 45090 or 45338, and Im not sure the length is there. Can you help me out with a stock number/other solution? Thanks

Expert Reply:
For a longer 2 inch ball mount that has 8 inches of drop the Brophy part # EA80 would most likely be your best option. This ball mount has 4-1/8 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the beginning of the bend in the ball mount.
Or for a steel ball mount with 4 inches you would want the # AMSC8.
