I’m looking for an adjustable drop down hitch, maybe somewhere between 8” - 14” inches. I found a few different manufactures, but I wanted to shop around before making a purchase.

Product: 14" Quick-Hitch with 2" and 2 5/16" Balls, Provides 0" to 14" of Adjustment

Part # AA_1208-1
Price: $289.99
Website: http://www.hitchcorner.com/adjustable_ball_mounts.htm

I also found these websites, but they only had a 10” drop:

I'm trying to avoid buying the non-adjustable versions. I don't know why because I already own 5-6 of the darn things in different lengths. :banghead:

not sure I trust the adjustable ones as much as the single height. plus if you already have 5 or 6 aren't you almost done with your "collection" ? :ROTFL:

We use a Reese adjustable height hitch from time to time.
Usually for our tent trailer as it sits on little 12" pizza cutter tires.
Bought it at Walmart for $30.00 (regular price was $89.00) because it was missing both hitch pins!
Never had any problems, just makes some clunking noise over rough terrain.

I actually have the Reese adjustable drop down hitch from Wal-Mart. If it’s the same one that I’m thinking of, it only drops down to 7.5” inches. Does yours drop down further? I only paid $34 dollars for mine and that was the regular price.
