Longer Shank Needed for Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution System

Question:

During initial setup of this Blue Ox system, my ball height is 21” while my coupler height is 18”. This is more than the 2” recommended. Unfortunately, I am out of room on the shank to go any lower with the ball height. Can this be made to work?

If the shank that came with your Blue Ox SwayPro doesn't allow you to at least be within 2" of your coupler height then you will need to use a different shank.

The Fastway e2 shank, part # FA92-02-4214, is a little longer than your current shank but that won't hurt anything. Most importantly it has 3-1/2 more inches of drop for a total of 5-1/2 inches as opposed to the 2 inches you currently have. This will allow you to properly setup your weight distribution system.
