Be sure any drop/rise you get has a gusset to link the vertical and horizontal sections. Not just welded where they butt together.

You can barely see it but there's a triangle of steel supporting the joint.
That much drop will magnify looseness in the receiver to the point you will likely need a stabilizer bracket to take the play out. Too much play at the ball and the toad will try to bump steer the back of the coach.
