Drop Weight Distribution Shank Recommendation for a Draw Tite Weight Distribution System
Question:
I have a new 2105 Denali. It sits about 5 inches higher than my last truck. I have a Drawtite equalizing system. Of course the shank is too short... I check Drawtite first but dont see that much of a drop. My existing shank of couse is 2x2inch but measures only 8inch top to bottom. Need some more holes...lower. Suggestions?

Expert Reply:
The Curt weight distribution shanks are compatible with your Draw Tite weight distribution system and would work well to provide you with more drop.
The part # C17123 that you referenced measures 11-1/4 inches from the top to the bottom so this would give you 3-1/4 more inches of drop than your current shank.
