"Heavy Duty" and "adjustable" are mutually exclusive. I wouldn't tow with an adjustable for any reason but if I were going to, I wouldn't go over 2K/lb with it.
12" drop is ALOT. That adds a huge amount of leverage. I have one for my Excursion's WD hitch and it's only 9". It's a solid bar with a big gusset on the back.

The black one would be at it's maximum right out of the gate.
The show chrome isn't even a contender.
I'd find something non-adjustable that is rated for more than what you need - like the 10,000-12000lb unit someone mentioned.
