Shank Recommendation to Allow Pro Series Weight Distritbution Tow Trailer Level with Taller Truck
Question:
I purchased the Pro Series Weight Distribution System w Friction Sway Control - Round - 10,000 lbs GTW, 1,000 lbs TW Item # PS49903 when I owned a 2013 Silverado and it works great but I just upgraded to a 2018 GMC 2500hd Denali that sits way higher then the Silverado did and I am wondering if I will be able to use the hitch?

What you need is a weight distribution shank that has more drop than what you have so that the head of your system is lower and your trailer can be towed level.
We have the Curt weight distribution shank part # C17124 which will work with your Pro Series weight distribution system and give you the additional drop you need. I attached a picture that shows how much drop it can do.
