The longest shank we offer is part # EQ90-02-4600 from Equal-i-zer which is 18 inches long overall or 14 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the centers of the adjustment holes on the shank.

As it sits, the center of the hitch pin hole to center of trailer ball hole on the # 3371802225 is 16 inches. If the # EQ90-02-4600 shank is used, that distance would be about 21-5/8. The series of height adjustment holes are spaced the same on the # EQ90-02-4600 shank, so It would work great for you, assuming it provided enough clearance.

I've linked you to a photo showing the shanks's measurements.
