Reese R54995 hitch bar

I transferred the hitch platform from the R54932 to my new R54995 hitch bar. This gives me 6 more inches of total hitch adjustment over the 6 3/4" total adjustment of the previous bar. It is still a 14" long bar but adds 3" to the rise and 3" to the drop over the R54932. I now have 4" rise and 8 3/4" drop. The lower bolt is on the next to the last hole and I may have to go up one. I put the R54932 in the for sale section if anyone happens to be interested and she has a fresh coat of Rustoleum gloss black after prep. A rough comparison of the two bars can be seen in the picture below.
