It sounds like you are looking for an adjustable ball mount for your 2021 Jeep Gladiator. The best way to choose an adjustable ball mount is to know the maximum rise/drop you will need between the different trailers you will tow. This can be found by measuring the hitch height and subtracting the coupler height.
For example, if you find that the maximum drop or rise you need is 5" then you could use the B&W Tow & Stow 3-Ball Mount - 2" Hitch - 5" Drop, 5-1/2" Rise - 10K - Black # BWTS10048B. You also need to be aware of the trailer weight along with the coupler size on the trailer. For this particular ball mount the 1-7/8" ball has a gross towing weight of 3,500 lbs, the 2" ball is 7,500 lbs, and the 2-5/16" ball is 10,000 lbs.
If you don't know the height of the trailers you will be towing then I would just give it a rough estimate. The # BWTS10048B is a good option that will likely cover all of your needs. The other nice thing with the Tow & Stow is that you can flip the hitch balls around to the back side when it isn't in use. This gives it a nice look while also keeping them out of the way.
I have attached a review video along with a helpful article on measuring for trailer hitch drop for your reference.
