  • Replacement Weight Distribution Shank to Provide More Height Rise or Drop
  • If you are referring to needing more rise or drop from the shank part of your Curt weight distribution system to allow your hitched trailer to remain level as it needs to in order to handle well, then you can refer to the linked page that displays all WD shanks that fit a 2-inch hitch receiver.

  • Picking Out Ball Mount and 2 inch Hitch Ball for Trailer that Needs 5-1/4 inch Drop
  • When picking out the correct rise/drop ball mount for a towing setup you sometimes can't get exactly the amount you need. The good news is that if you get as close as you can (in your case within 1/2 inch) you will be fine. So using the hitch ball # 40038 that you referenced with the ball mount # C45240 would be a great choice and would work well for you.

  • Weight Distribution Recommendation for 500 lb Tongue Weight and 6 inch Drop Shank

Then for a shank you'd need the # EQ90-02-4300 and you'd be set.
