Can 2-1/2 inch Weight Distribution Shanks Fit Other Brand Systems without 2-1/2 inch Availability
Question:
I am interested in several of the weight distribution hitch kits you offer, but I really want a kit that features a 2 1/2 inch receiver, not a 2 inch with a reducer. Am I missing something or do you just not have kits for the major manufacturers, like Reese and Equalizer?

Expert Reply:
Not all of the manufacturers we offer have 2-1/2 inch shanks. But if you find a kit you like you can order a 2-1/2 inch shank with it and it will work. The thing about weight distribution systems is that they made the shanks of each brand to the same dimensions so the shanks are all interchangeable.
So you could use the part # EQ90-02-4900 with a non-Equalizer brand if you wanted.
