by:

2019 F250 setting up E2 trunnion hitch to pull an Airstream Globetrotter 25FB. This trailer is lower to ground than most and needs about 19-20 inches to the top of the ball when towing for the trailer to be level. This nine inch drop worked out perfect and still allows the set up to be adjusted one setting lower. Cant go wrong this ordering from etrailer.



by:

Needed up upgrade the shank on our E4 to match the newer 3/4 ton pickup. Part arrived promptly and has worked flawlessly the entire time. Pulling an Imagine 2600RB, moving from a 1/2 ton to 3/4 ton truck was one of the best upgrades we have made.



by:

Just what I needed to get the correct height to hook up my Rv weight distribution hitch on my lifted 2022 F-250. Easy to install . Adjustable height range



by:

Fits perfectly. Heavy and solid

Kenneth

Works well with the Ram 2500 to get the hitch height down to 17 -18 in above the ground.



by:

Worked perfectly for my truck. Is solid and I have no doubts about the strength of it. I have a 2016 Silverado 2500HD with a 7” lift and 37” tires. I could have gotten away with an 8” drop as I do have some extra holes at the bottom. If I had airbags that might be different. My trailer is also much taller than most other travel trailers.



by:

when I called e trailer they were very knowledgeable and helpful!



by:

Good alternative for bigger trucks. Still has plenty of ground clearance.



by:

Very solid device.



by:

Equal-i-zer makes a quality product including this shank. Etrailer went out of their way to get the exact model I needed (which was not a stock item for them) and provided excellent customer service by keeping me informed of the status of my order. I greatly appreciate the efforts of the entire team.



by:

Tremendous piece of Steel! It provided JUST the right amount of Drop to enable proper towing of our Airstream with the 2500 Cummins Ram.
Thanks to everyone at etrailer YET AGAIN for making another project a success.



by:

Got a new truck which had a 3" lift so needed a bigger drop. Ordered the 12" drop by accident and called to get it retured and get this one. Teresa was awesome and got me squared away.

Quality is great and was just wat I needed! Got the trailer leveled up and ready for spring.



by:

Danielle h is very good at her job tell her what you want and you shall receive. I was very picky I have a 6” jacked up 2500 ram on 37” tires she got me the hitch I needed for my camper. It also was supposed to take more time to get and it delivered 5 days early. Thank you Danielle h



by:

Etrailer provided excellent customer service. I had ordered a piece of equipment which was on back order and they responded quickly by notifying, helping me find a different part that arrived in 3 days.



by:

Exactly what I order with supper fast shipping.
Thanks



by:

Product as described. Fast shipping. Great experience.



by:

well we got it closer i will have 2 holes drilled into it



by:

etrailer has always provided me with honest, professional, high quality service, and I will be happy to do business with them in the future.



by:

The shank is Extremely heavy duty but the paint just peels away very easily. It will rust very quickly.

Thank you for the review! I wanted to share a link that talks about different ways to prevent rust, and one way is to use a rust inhibiting spray paint to touch any bare spots.



by:

Exactly as advertised. We’ll built product delivered on time.

  • Availibility Of Shank W/ More Drop For Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Hitch EQ64FR
    You sure can! The shank included with the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System w/ 4-Point Sway Control - 16,000 lbs GTW, 1,600 lbs TW # EQ64FR you were looking at only has up to 3" of drop so for more drop you can use one of the following shanks: 4" drop # EQ90-02-4800 6" drop # EQ90-02-4900 8" drop # EQ94FR Each of these shanks still work in a 2-1/2" receiver, it just comes down to exactly how much drop you need. I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.

  • Recommended Weight Distribution Shank With 9" Drop For 2-1/2" Receiver On 2017 Ford F-250
    I have another option, but after speaking with my contact at Fastway the Flash Solid Steel HD Adjustable 2-Ball Mount - 2.5" Hitch - 10" Drop, 9" Rise - 20K # FA49-00-5925 was not designed for use with a weight distribution system and as such I do not recommend doing so. For a weight distribution shank that has roughly the same drop and rise that will work with the 2-1/2" trailer hitch receiver on your 2017 Ford F-250 I recommend the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Shank - 12" Long - 13"...

  • Will Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank Bolt Hole Spacing Match Up with Older Head Unit
    The Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank # EQ94FR fits a 2-1/2" shank, is 2" square, and the bolt holes are 1-1/4" apart on center so as long as your 1980s weight distribution head meets the 2" width spec it sounds like you'll be just fine, although you'll only have 1 bolt hole's worth of adjustment since your bolt hole spacing will span 3 bolt holes. Attached is a review video for you to check out.

  • Upgrading a 2 Inch Husky Centerline Shank to a 2 1/2 Inch Shank
    Reducer sleeves like the Curt # C45405 will work with weight distribution hitches, but I highly recommend using an anti-rattle device like the Roadmaster Quite Hitch # RM-062 with it. There can still be movement, however, so a new shank would be a better option. The Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Shank # EQ94FR is rated to a maximum tongue capacity of 1,600 pounds and would give you a maximum drop of 9 inches. As you mentioned needing more drop that what came standard with your Husky,...

  • How To Use Equal-i-zer 1400/14000lb Weight Distribution Hitch In 2021 Ford F-350 W/ 3" Receiver
    I have another option for you, but due to the tongue weight of your trailer being right at the max 1200lb rating of the Buyers Products # 337RTA302, and your 2021 Ford F-350's 3" trailer hitch receiver having a hitch pin hole of 5/8" meaning it will not work correctly with the # C45408 I do not recommend either of these option. Instead I recommend using the B&W Hitch Receiver Reducer Sleeve - 3" to 2-1/2" # BWRHXA2183 to reduce your 3" receiver to 2-1/2", then replacing your shank with...

  • Recommended Weight Distribution Sway Control for 2020 Jayco Jay Flight SLX
    According to my research, the tongue weight of your new Jayco Jay Flight will be somewhere between 1000-1350 lbs, so you'll want to be sure to get a system that can handle that tongue weight. Also, because travel trailers are especially vulnerable to sway caused by oncoming or passing traffic, it's pretty crucial that you use a weight distribution system that has an integrated sway control component. I'd recommend going with an Equal-i-zer system like # EQ37141ET which is compatible with...

  • Shank Recommendation for Fastway Weight Distribution for 2019 Ram 2500 with 2.5 inch Hitch
    Since your truck has a lift, and without a lift it sits up pretty high I would recommend a shank that fits the 2.5 inch hitch size with a bit more drop in the shank like the # EQ90-02-4900 which can do a drop of up to 6 inches or the part # EQ94FR which has a 9 inch drop.

These systems are weight specific so you will need to match the correct system for your trailer based on the tongue weight and trailer weight. I prefer the Equal-i-zer over others as their quality and longevity have made them the industry leader for 75 years. 200-600LBS Tongue Weight, 6,000LBS Trailer Weight # EQ37061ET 600-1,000LBS Tongue Weight, 10,000LBS Trailer Weight # EQ37101ET 800-1,200LBS...

    The longest weight distribution shank that fits a 2-1/2" hitch receiver is the 12" long Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Shank item # EQ94FR. It has a 13" rise, 9" drop. This should be really close to clearing your tailgate depending on what kind of truck you drive and how far tucked under the hitch is. You'll want to measure to confirm.

  • Replacement Shank for Lower Trailer on Ford F-350 With 3" Receiver
    Currently there are no replacement drop shanks offered in a 3" receiver, but there are for 2-1/2". The Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Shank # EQ94FR will give you 9" of total drop. If you already have a reducer for the 2" and are more apt to stay with that then the Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank # EQ90-02-4400 will provide you the same 9" of total drop.

    The Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Shank part # EQ94FR is what I recommend using for a 2-1/2" hitch where extra drop is needed. It offers up to 9" drop which should be plenty for most truck and trailers combos. It's cross-compatible so it will work with pretty much any system.
