Recommended Weight Distribution Shank For a 3" Receiver Without Needing a Reducer

Question

Question:

I recently upgraded to an 2019 Ford F350 from a RAM 1500. Have a husky centerline weight distribution hitch and purchased the reducers to get from the 3” ford receiver to the 2” shank. Using a 12” drop Experiencing quite a bit of sway using the reducers. Does husky make a shank which will fit into the larger ford receiver without using reducers?

I do have a recommendation for your Husky weight distribution hitch as I am not aware of any manufacturers who make a drop shank that fits your 3" receiver without an adapter.

The BulletProof Hitches 2-Ball Mount # ED3012 fits your 3" receiver and will accept the Weight Distribution Shank # 358WEIGHTDIST. This will allow you to mount your Husky to the shank and position it at the correct height for your trailer. I recommend using the BulletProof Hitches Receiver Lock Set # BPH94FR to secure the hitch and adapter to your truck.
