Anyone fabricating such a thing would find themselves liable for any failures caused. How much moment can your hitch handle? 4 to 6" represents a huge difference in moment. Suggest either going with a hitch designed for the moment such as one from Torklift, or using a weight distribution system.
...and a company like Reese, B&W, or Torklift wouldn't be liable?
The receiver is a Reese Titan, and is rated for 2000lbs WC, 2500lbs WD. If it can't handle a 1000-1200lb tongue load at 4-6" out, I give up!
They make longer shanks with the heavy ratings, but they have 7" drops.
