man you must have hte same supply pile as me LOL ....
Maybe, we toss alot of after market hitches, and thats where my HD stuff is sourced from. So basically, its a solid round slug, drilled and tapped for the heim with the correct ID to match the square tube? That sounds both heavy and potentially expensive.

do you mean 2 x 2-1/4 rectangular?
No, it is square, 2"x2", 1/4" wall. I have a fair bit of it, although heavy, it was free. The way I was thinking was to drill all the way through the already added tube, and into the original metal, add some round tube the diameter of the bung, weld it inside and out, and then add the bung. I could use the extra length of the bung, but if it is weak, then it isn't needed. I figured that way, it would be attached to the actual swingarm, instead of just the added extension.
