Weight Distribution System and Drop Shank Recommendation for 2011 Honda Pilot
Question:
Hello through your help articles I have discovered I likely need a greater than standard shank. I have a Honda Pilot and a small single axle 16 foot coachman clipper. I tried a husky equalize hitch but couldnt get the ball low enough to be effective. The trailer tounge height is approx 17 1/2 inches. Do you have any suggestions for weight distribution systems without shank so I can get a longer one.

For a weight distribution system that should be rated for the trailer you plan to tow with your 2011 Honda Pilot that does not have a shank you would want the part # EQ37061ET which has a tongue weight range of 200-600 lbs.
For a very long drop shank we have the part # C17124 which will work well. It can do a drop of up to 9 inches.
