First thing, do you REALLY need 36" or is that what gets the end of the receiver tube even with the rear of the camper? You usually don't need an extension that reaches to the rear of the camper. It can easily be 12" under the camper. The shank gives you about half of that back, and you will NEVER come close to hitting going forward.
I don't see a "plain old 36 inch extension" for a 2" receiver anymore anyway. Seems like I remember Reese used to make one but the only one I can find now are for 2-1/2" receivers, rated for 6000lbs at 34" extension with a WD hitch.
Doesn't help you a bit because you don't have a 2-1/2" receiver. If you did it would probably work okay, but for the life of me I can't find the 2" extension now.
