For the Reese Weight Distribution Shank, part # RP3214, the overall length of the vertical shaft is 8-3/4", and the top of the horizontal shaft to the bottom of the vertical one is 7-1/2". I've linked to a video review of this shank for you to look at.
As this shank is for 2" receivers and has holes measuring 1-1/4" apart, the Convert-A-Ball Ball Mount Adapter, part # BA-1, that you mentioned will work just fine.
The Clevis Adapter, part # CA-1, and the Pintle Hook Adapter, part # PA-1, will not work with this shank. They are only compatible with the Convert-A-Ball Shank, part # AMAC1. This has the benefit of being compatible with all three, so it is probably the better option for you.
The Convert-A-Ball shank has greater rise and drop lengths than the Reese and a higher tongue weight capacity. The only downside to this one is that it has a lower gross towing capacity (only 10,000 pounds vs. Reese's 14,000 pounds). I've linked to a video review of this shank for you to look at.
