Dual Receiver with 6" Drop??

In order to pack my bikes on our hitch I will need a 6" drop hitch with a dual receiver.

Is there such a thing? My dinghy requires a 6" drop receiver.
  • I don't think I've ever seen a "duel receiver" but you CAN purchase an adapter that plugs into your existing receiver with two female ends. Be very CAUTIOUS however because this will reduce the weight your receiver can carry by quite a bit as it puts the load about 8" further away from the tow vehicle. You will ALSO notice a LOT more effect of the tongue weight on the tow vehicle due to the lever effect of being so far behind.
