MC Rear Bumprer and ?" Drop Ball Mount
I have a MC rear bumper and about 2.5-3" of lift in the rear. I have to take a trailer on a 3.5 hour drive. I have put a trailer on once since I got the MC and also had the 2.5-3" lift and it was about 4-5 inches from the ground in the back and about 2 or 2 and a half feet from the ground at the bumper. How much drop should the ball mount have? I have been to autozone and wal-mart and the biggest they have is 5 1/4 ". Would this work?

Thanks guys. I was price shopping around for 7-8" drop ball mounts and there anyhere from $50-upper 100's..I think i might save that money and get one later on down the road and save my rig the strain of carrying that added weight and just get a u-haul. Plus the u-haul will probably get 2x the mpg my runner will!
