Helpful Expert Reply:
Yes! You can definitely use a 2" hitch receiver reducer on your 2-1/2" hitch. For that route, I recommend either the Curt Hitch Reducer # C45405 or the Brophy Reducer with 7" Long Extender # HR26 (depending on your length needs). It is important to note that while the # C45405 does not reduce your hitch's overall weight capacity, the # HR26 reduces your hitch's overall capacity by 1/3.
I went ahead and attached helpful demo videos of both of these products for your convenience.
