The hitch extender we offer that best matches your criteria is the Blue Ox part # BX88264. This 12 inch hitch extender has a 10k total trailer capacity and a 1,000 lb tongue weight capacity.

You should note that when you use an adapter like this you end up cutting the capacities of the hitch by 50 percent. So you would need to confirm you still have the needed capacity.
