I have seen 6" drop hitch's in 1-1/4" on ebay. You could take the adjustable hitch to a welder and have it reworked to 1-1/4".fishin_magician said:I could not find a 5 inch drop for a 1 1/4 receiver so I had to get a 1 1/4 to 2" adapter and a 2 in adjustable drop hitch
Longer trailers are easier to back up and you don't have to back the tow vehicle in to the water. As long as the trailer has the proper tongue weight the length is fine.Barefoot_Johnny said:Another issue, well, question really . . . .
is your winch post welded to the frame ? or bolted on.
Here is what I would toy with in my mind - - - if the winch post is bolted on,
I would consider moving it forward quite a bit then make all the necessary adjustments
in the bunks, etc. I doubt you can move the axle forward but does not seem necessary.
Just an idea . . . . the trailer just looks too long, or the boat is too far back to look right.
see the modified photo of your rig with the winch post moved forward.

That's for a 2" receiver.JL8Jeff said:I saw a Reese drop mount on a vehicle in our parking lot today so they are out there. I think this is it.
