How to Reduce a 2.5" Hitch to a 2" Hitch Receiver While Also Providing Drop  

Question:

I am looking for a down hitch adapter. My truck has a 2.5inch receiver, and my anti-sway hitch on my RV needs a 2inch receiver. Either an adjustable or fixed would work. I would prefer not to an additional reducer sleeve if possible.

If I am following you correctly, I think what you are looking for is a drop hitch that has a 2.5" shank for your truck and then the part that drops is a 2" receiver. So essentially a hitch reducer that also supplies a drop.

If that is correct, we do have a couple options.

- Gen-Y Phantom X Adjustable 2-Ball Mount # GY35XR (up to a 5" Drop)
- Gen-Y Phantom X Adjustable 2-Ball Mount # GY95XR (up to a 7-1/2" Drop)

Your other option would be to use a reducer sleeve like the Curt Hitch Receiver Reducer Sleeve # C45405 in the 2.5" hitch on your truck to reduce it to 2". You can then use a drop hitch like the Patriot Hitches Adjustable Drop Hitch Receiver Adapter # PH54FR to provide the drop needed.
