Recommended 2-1/2" Weight Distribution Shank
Question:
Anyone know if you must use an Equalizer brand shank for an Equalizer WDH? Purchased a new truck last week and need a tall shank, preference to fit a 2.5inch receiver without an adaptor. Thanks for your time...

You do not have to use an Equalizer shank with an Equalizer weight distribution like item # EQ37061ET. However, for a long drop that fits a 2-1/2" receiver you are going to want to use the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Shank item # EQ94FR.
This shank has a maximum tongue weight of 1,600 lbs and a maximum gross towing weight of 16,000 lbs. It has a 9" drop and extends 9" from the pin hole.
