the orange boyz will rightfully be against using a "receiver box" add on/drop even with apparently adequate ratings.
it might tolerate the stress but this hasn't been tested and introduces more parts that MIGHT fail.
the haha puts a LOT of stress on the receiver and not just in the vertical direction.
also the multiples of male/female connection...
will introduce MORE SLOP and less stability in the connection.
there are a couple of dozen posts IN the haha thread
on the problem of DEEPER DROP than the 8 inches they provide.
this is somewhere after post 400-500 as i recall.

i seriously doubt the trailer is nose high when hooked up.
the nose may RISE 2much with w/d (jack tightening) but that's another issue.
have u WEIGHED the rig hooked up?
in particular the steering/drive axles of the nissan, without stream and with/out w/d tension?
this 02 19 ftr may have 400-600 lbs on tongue weight depending on lpgas, spare tire and LOADING.
without the scale info,
suggestions on HOW to monkey with the bar drop are all UNinformed.
__________
it also appears from the pix that the haha struts are in the LOWEST holes on the brackets?
there are some minor fiddlings that can effectively alter the haha height...
but without SCALE info any suggested mods are without basis.
also post the receiver HEIGHT (upper/inside box) UNhitched and after hitching withOUT w/d tension.
what does the TONGUE actually weigh?
have u tried LOADING more crap in the nose or in front of the axels?

without INTENTIONALLY pluggin' a better product, it would be remiss to NOT mention this...
the pp comes with a FULLY adjustable stinger and IS available with >10 inch drop.
http://www.airforums.com/forums/f464...ide-57179.html
so IF 10 or more is really needed,
one could contact the pp makers and inquire about buying MORE DROP.
at least ONE member here has used PP parts to make a haha compatible stinger
((see crispyboys posts on THIS stinger mod in the haha thread...))
cheers
