@JLNJJeep@Gron86 did you ever get this? Would be interested in your thoughts as I need to buy a hitch soon for my JLUR.
Was trying to find an adjustable one that fits the Class II.
@JLNJJeepDefinitely agree with you, @Rhinebeck01 - what do you think about Harbor Freight? They have an adjustable for a decent price:

How much of a drop are you planning on getting with the Tow & Stow?I'll be buying one of the tow and stow hitches as spring gets closer.
Had a B&W 5th wheel hitch for a long time. Ultra-high quality piece.
@JLNJJeepHow much of a drop are you planning on getting with the Tow & Stow?
@Rhinebeck01 below is an image from the ground to my hitch, it is about 20 inches to the center.
A 8" drop would bring it down to 12" off the ground, not including any weight on the trailer or the back of the Jeep. Isn't that too low?
Also, I will probably go with the Tow & Stow with 2 or 3 different size balls. This means one ball will be pointed down to the ground, reducing the clearance even more.

@JLNJJeep@Rhinebeck01 what do you think of the Rhino brand ones? More expensive, but I like the idea of lifting it up when not in use.

Absolutely, you're right about that! Besides removing it when not in use, how else do you ensure it lasts a lifetime?@JLNJJeep
@JLNJJeep
I have no experience with that brand but they have a good reputation. Sure, being able to lift up is a plus as they do hang down lots. I just remove mine when the trailer is not hooked up.. the hitch is heavy heavy...
So, with that said, I would not hesitate buying a Rhino..... Just be sure you get one with enough drop. Though I never have needed the 10" drop ability my hitch has, the day may come when with a different trailer, I will need..
Be like me and take care of the hitch... clean and protect and don't leave it on 24/7 365. To pricey not to take care of.
