We do carry the Blue Ox Apollo tow bar part # BX7470 which fits the 2-1/2 inch hitch size. We do not have a version that fits a 2 inch hitch. We do however have a higher capacity Blue Ox tow bar with the Trion part # BX7520P but this is designed to fit a pintle hitch like the B&W Tow & Stow Pintle Hook # BWTS10056 which has a 16k capacity.

The only tow bar we offer that has enough capacity for what you are trying to do is the Blue Ox Trion Tow Bar part #BX7520P as it has a 20k capacity. It is a pintle setup though as most hitch setups with that much capacity would have to be pintle.
