Parts Needed for Equal-I-zer Weight Distribution to Tow 2016 Airstream with 4 inches of Drop
Question:
I have a 2019 Tacoma that has a slight lift that I use a 4inch drop hitch to level my 2016 Airstream 16 Sport. The 4inch drop puts the top of the ball just below the inside top of the receiver. Will this hitch work or is there another that allows for the 4inch drop? Thanks.

While I have a great solution for you the Equal-i-zer kit part # EQ37060ET that you referenced comes with a shank that allows a drop of up to 3 inches so it would not be ideal for you.
Since you need one more inch of drop beyond that your best option is to get the version of this system that doesn't come with a shank so that you can order one that has the amount of drop you need. So for that you'd want the part # EQ37061ET for the system without the shank and then for the shank you'd need the part # EQ90-02-4800 and you'd be set.
