Will The Reese Pro Series WD Shank Work With A Reese WDS?

Question:

I have a Reese weight distribution part 54947 with a adaptor that only has 5 holes going down. I bought a new vehicle and need about 2 inches more . Will the Reese 63971 achieve this and is the spacing of the holes the same as with part 54947, which seems to be obsolete now.

Yes, the Pro Series Weight Distribution Shank # RP63971 will work great with your Reese WDS 54947!

This weight distribution shank will work with 2" trailer hitch receivers, has a maximum tongue weight capacity of 1,500lbs, measures 14" long, and features 4-3/4" to 6-1/2" of drop depending on if you're using a trunnion setup or a round bar setup.
