Parts Needed for Easy Install of Reese Strait Line System on Second Vehicle
Question:
I just purchased a Reese Strait Line WD hitch #RP66083 from you. I am wanting to set it up on a second vehicle. Is #RP54980 what I am needing to purchase for this so I do not have to change the adjustments between the vehicles? Thanks

Expert Reply:
To install the Strait Line part # RP66083 on a second vehicle you would want the part # RP54980 that you referenced. This will allow you to set the angle of the system properly for the second vehicle as well as the overall height of the head relative to the shank.
For a 2 inch ball you would want part # A-90 and for a 2-5/16 inch ball # 19286.
