Default The best drop hitch?

I am supposed to be making a trip to Arizons real soon to tow back my moms 26' camper. I need to know what the toughest drop hitch is that will allow fo that kind of wieght. It was pulled down to the property years ago, but with a truck with no lift and the hitch with the load bars. I have an 8" lift with 17" wheels and 37s. Any help would be great.....I was looking at the ladder sysytem (?) THANKS

The biggest drop hitch I have found has been a 6" drop. I run a 6" lift and wish I could raise my 6" drop hitch up to keep my trailers level. You should get a height measurement of the trailer when level. This will let you know IF a 6" drop won't be usable. Worst case the trailer rides nose high. I'm never needed a weight distribution hitch with any trailers I have used (primarily utility/equipment trailers).

Appreciate the info. I already have an 11" drop but I dont think it will be low enough for the trailer. Just looking for the most heavy duty drop hitch. This is just one I got at the local Schucks auto parts store.
