Expert Reply:
For a pintle mount you will want the B&W Pintle Hook Mounting Plate # BWPMHD14005. This mount is 12 inches tall so it should work well to give you the 8 inches of drop you need. This is designed to fit a 2 inch hitch so you will need the adapter part # C45405 to fit your 2-1/2 inch hitch. Currently we don't carry a 2-1/2 inch pintle mount with that much drop so this is your best option.
For a pintle hook you would want the part # 33710055. All of the components I mentioned have 16k capacities.
