Is Curt Shank Compatible with a Husky 800 to 1200 Pound Round Bar Weight Distribution System

Question:

I have the Husky round bar WDH 801-1200# and was wondering if this shank is compatibly with my setup.

The Husky weight distribution systems use 2 different shank types depending on capacity. The lighter duty ones use a shank that has smaller diameter holes than most other shanks. The higher capacity ones like yours should use a shank with 3/4 inch diameter holes which is what the Curt shank # C17124.

The holes should also be spaced 1-1/4 inches apart like on the Curt shank. If the hole diameter and spacing matches what the Husky weight distribution head requires then you can use the Curt shank. I have included a link to a video review of this shank for you.
