Titan Coupler to Replace Ram 5k Coupler

Question

Question:

I have a RAM 5k 3 inch channel 2 inch ball class 3 coupler currently. It is pretty rusty and I am looking to replace it. I am running into an issue. The mounting holes on my current coupler are lower than the standard. Do you offer a coupler with lower mounting holes?

I did some research online and I found a coupler with some lower mounting holes that looks similar to the Ram's. It is the Titan Coupler - Painted - Multi-Fit Ball - 3" Channel - Bolt On - 5,000 lbs item # T2343400. I have attached a diagram I made of the spacing and location of the bolt holes.
