Will Using Blue Ox SwayPro Shank In Rise Position Impact Weight Rating
Question:
Hi, The top of my receiver tube is 21 inch and my camper has a coupler height of 26.5 inch so I am looking to purchase the weight distribution hitch and use it as a riser to level out the two. Does using it as a riser reduce any of my towing capacities or impact my ratings? Thank you,

Expert Reply:
The shank for the Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution w/ Sway Control # BXW2000 can be used in the rise or drop configuration without having any impact on the weight rating of the system itself so you'll be good to go using this for the 5.5" rise you're needing!
