I agree. It is best to purchase through one of the companies that make offset receivers. Hopefully the O.P. will find what he needs through one of them rather than adding a 3rd piece to clear his rear bumper. Three pieces is ripe for a lot of other kind of trouble. If his rear bumper is a cheap decorative thing as many RV bumpers are, maybe he could modify it to accommodate the offset. Maybe go as far as cutting the bumper and support it on each side of the hitch, making it 2 half bumpers.
I wonder if all else fails him, if he could buy an extension, attach it to an offset hitch via bolting the two together instead of using a pin. Also eliminate any play between the two by forcing thin sheet metal in the gaps. Then the two pieces might act like one.
Still, the best is one piece. I hope he finds it.
