What Is The Distance From the Top of the Shank to the Top of the Air Bag On the Shocker XR Channel?
Question:
I am concerned about whether my tailgate can be lowered with the Shockerhitch in place. What is the distance from the top of the shank to the top of the air bladder?

I went and spoke with Shocker and they let me know the the measurement on their Shocker Air Equalizer for Weight Distribution Hitch # SHK68VR from the top of the 2" shank to the top of the airbag in the lowest position is 8".
This would be when using the 8 hole XR channel (black), as opposed to the 10 hole channel that should drop an additional two inches resulting in a 6" measurement.
