Though I may have another option available for you, the B&W Tow & Stow 3-Ball Mount # BWTS30049B is not available with a pintle hitch as of yet.
With that being said, there are actually no current options available for the 3" hitches being used, so you will need to use a reducer, like the # 58552, if you do not already have one. This will allow you to go one of two ways.
First will be the Curt Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Ball - 2-1/2" Hitches # C45908. This is rated to 20,000 pounds and will have up to 6 inches of drop.
Next will be the Curt Pintle Hook Mounting Plate for 2-1/2" Hitches # C48349 paired with the Curt Pintle Hook # C48210. This is also rated up to 20,000 pounds. When these are used together, you will get roughly 7 inches of drop, getting you closer to the # BWTS30049B.
The adjustability of the # C45908 is nice, but I prefer the solid connections with the # C48349 and # C48210. Unfortunately we will ntot have anything that will fold away and stow like the B&W, but these will still be good options.
