On the Brophy Hitch Adapter #HR26 the distance between the two hitch pin holes is 7-inches, from hole center to hole center. Overall length end to end is 12-inches. Please note that using this extension will reduce your hitch's weight capacity by…

The Roadmaster High-Low Adapter for Tow Bar - 2.5" Hitch - 6" Rise/Drop #RO24FR weighs a total of 14 pounds. It is important to note that any time you use a hitch adapter, you decrease the overall weight capacity of the hitch by 50%.
