Using Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution System with 2-1/2 Inch Trailer Hitch Receiver
Question:
I am looking at the Sway Pro weight distribution system from Blue Ox. I have a 2 1/2 receiver and the BXW4018 works for me. I can not find a blue ox sway pro that comes without the hitch. Is there a part sway pro that doesnt include the hitch?. i am in serach of the 1000# unit.

Expert Reply:
The shank # EQ90-02-4900 will work with the Blue SwayPro weight distribution systems, like the 1,000 pound system # BXW1000 in order to fit a 2-1/2 inch hitch receiver. However, we do not carry any SwayPro systems that don't include a shank.
For another option you can use the Curt Reducer Sleeve # C45405 and use the shank that comes with the SwayPro.
You'll also need a hitch ball. Use # 19286 for a 2-5/16 inch ball or # A-90 if you need a 2 inch ball.
