has anyone ever used a dual hitch? These are used to adda cargo carrier or a bike rack above the tongue of your trailer. Unfortunately they don't make a 3 1/2" drop with the additional 2" receiver over it, only a 2 inch drop as seen here. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/cht-45810?seid=srese1&gclid=CN6T25KOscACFUiGfgod8i8Aug

there are two different designs and I think one has the potential to be superior over the others, but wanted some opinions on the two.
this is the first: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/rrr-drh-1?seid=srese1&gclid=CKTRlrWOscACFU9afgodfkIA3A
this is the other http://www.e-hitch.com/part/45792?gclid=CM6a_oCPscACFU2Rfgod8CgAsQ

Comments are welcome. I will be pulling a 4x6 enclosed trailer behind the WK2 about 5-7000 miles on the way back from AK. :JEEPIN: :dizzy:

Just an idea but have you considered welding a receiver tube to the trailer and mount the carrier to the trailer instead?
