Question:
It I just received a front receiver mount from you and need to get a high and long enough hitch and ball setup so as to move the trailer in a tight driveway Receiver setup went great! 2017 Tundra My trailer coupler is at 19” top of cup the receiver exits at 10” The bar needs to clear the front bumper before rising up. Possibly Item D-28 will reach but I would need a extra tall ball and it would be close. Are there 2” balls with more than 1” rise? Ideas? Thank you

It sounds as if the Curt # C40034 high rise trailer ball is what you're looking for. This is a 2 inch ball with a 2 inch rise. The Curt # D-28 is a pretty long ball mount, the hitch pin hole to the closest portion of the ball platform is 8-1/4 inches, as shown in the provided diagram. You can measure from the hitch pin hole out to the closest edge of the bumper to see if the D-28 would provide enough clearance.
