Shank measures 9" long from center of hitch pin hole to the center of the adjustment holes. 9 Bolt holes let you adjust the height of your Blue Ox TrackPro weight distribution system. Fits 2-1/2" receivers.Major improvement over using 2 inch hitch opening with adapter!
Fits perfectly into my receiver and the lady I spoke with at e-trailer was super helpful and did research for me while I was on the phone to make sure this was the correct part for my truck. Kudos to e-Trailer
Very heavy/durable Shank!
Excellent service from friendly and professional sales personnel. Fast shipping by their operations team, and my order arrived earlier than promised. What a great experience in this era when most companies’ customer service is pretty dismal! Thanks etrailer, you exceeded my expectations.

Very well
Part doesn't fit with bx88418 (2 1/2 receiver adjustable drop receiver add-on. I was told receiver bx88418 would fit fastway hitch which it doesn't so I ordered BLU26fr (above)and it doesn't fit that. lots of money spent, misinformation twice and time trying to get what I need.
Fits receiver very snug. No more need for receiver adapter. Well made and exactly what I needed to haul our camper more safely. Highly recommend this shank if you have a 2-1/2" receiver.
This was exactly what I needed. The 2.5” shank makes it easier to install and remove from the truck, without the adapter. It’s a tighter fit without the adapter as well, so less rattle. It also dropped my trailer about 2 more inches from my previous 5-hole receiver, which makes the trailer almost perfectly level behind my 2017 Ram 2500 4x4. Shipping from eTrailer was free and ridiculously fast!
Arrived 2 days after it was ordered, packaged perfectly. Customer service was very friendly, efficient when I called for delivery address correction, ( they do not deliver to P.O. BOX ).
Shank is top quality, and fit perfectly to the rest of the Blue Ox Weight Distributing Hitch.
Great technical advice. I ordered late in the day and it still shipped that day. As always great service from the etrailer team!
Excellent service and knowledgeable help picking the proper hardware. Care was taken to make tracking available. Thanks for your help.
It just arrived. It was heavy. Give me a break I haven't even opened it yet.
It was installed professionally by camping world. Coating is all coming off. Arms pop out during travel. The square pins fall though slots. The angled brackets that mount to camper chassis are failing. Its the worst hitch I have ever owned. Literally.
I like the hitch and it works great with my '07 Tundra and 27' Travel Trailer. It makes the two feel like you're driving a single vehicle and Cross winds and buffeting from passing semi's is virtually unnoticeable. Unfortunately, the Powder coating leaves a bit to be desired and warrants a significant mark down in the rating.
Pros: Easy of installation and hooking up the hitch. Adjustments are also very simple.
Cons: The "Powder Coating" is atrocious. It showed up flaking out of the box and just continued flaking during the installation. So, it started immediately surface rusting. I didn't think it worth returning and I guess I will just touch it up with spray paint as needed. Powder coating should be significantly tougher than what I see on this hitch. If it wasn't for this I would absolutely give it 5 stars. In the picture with the 2 bolts is the most obvious example of the flaking powder coat.
This tows very well. However the hitch head is very heavy, and the brackets on the trailer tongue for the spring bars loosen up regardless of bolt torque.
My only gripe with etrailer is shipping quality. This is a heavy item, well constructed, heavy duty, not lightweight. To ship this in a standard cardboard box without reinforcement is nuts. When delivered by UPS this box had gapping holes and part of the contents were protruding outside the shipping box. My UPS driver stated that such heavy items should be attached to a wood skeleton inside the box to keep from moving around during shipment. To my amazement all the parts were present, albeit banged up a bit with paint damage and gouging. So be aware that you may find your order in similar condition. etrailer responds to me with yada yada. Not real happy with this one but the unit itself is quite robust although a little black enamel will be required.
The hitch works fine. BUT the ball worked it way loose after about 2000 miles.
Had a truck repair shop tighten in to spec. And a little Lock Tite will hold it better.
Received my weight distribution hitch with two days of placing my order. The hitch works well for my set up and installation was easy. My truck hitch weight is 600lbs. and max tow weight is 6000lbs. My 22ft. long RV trailer max capacity loaded is about 20% less than my trucks specs. Etrailer sells quality accessories. Their prices are good, and their experience, knowledge and customer service are the best. It would be hard to find a better dealer that could provide better service with very fast shipping.
Love this hitch system. I was hesitant to spend the money but I am so glad that I did. I have had the system for about a year now and it has impressed me every time I use it. I recently put a 3.5” lift kit on my truck and with the easy adjustments on the hitch system, I was able to accommodate for the lift in about 20 minutes. Would recommend
I bought this in April '22 for our new trailer. The second day of our trip to Alaska, one of the Retaining Keys with the cotter pin fell off. It was while hooking up to our campsite that we saw it was gone and the spring bar bar had been free of mooring. Luckily we had a C Bolt and duck tape to hold the one sway bar without the retaining key and taped up the other to make sure it didn't fall off on the rest of our journey. When we called Blue Ox they sent two day to AK the two packages of the retaining key w/step. These turned out different than the ones that came on the TracPro and are thicker and shorter - I think these were suppose to come with the TracPro WD/Sway and should have been in the package when we got it. There is too much play between the sring bar and the L Bracket with the Retaining key that was in our order. Pictures for reference. If you order the Blue Ox TracPro, call make and sure you get the correct Retaining Keys with it, you should not have to buy them separately.
Came with package in only fair shape but all parts were there and installed easily. Looks like good quality wdh, easy to hookup too.
First my truck and trailer sit and travel LEVEL, and I am pleased with the hitch after loosing one of the original “pins” while traveling(these are the pins that keep the sway bars on L brackets). I ordered the replacement “Pins” Now after a couple thousand miles, I do like how stable the truck and trailer are when other vehicles pass, the side push pull is much less. If the hitch came with the replacement “Pins” this would be a 5 Star Review.
This thing is amazing! I bought this to haul my 24’ car (toy) hauler behind my 03 Suburban which has coil springs instead of leaf springs. This hitch has made a world of difference. I honestly was shocked at the difference it made. It almost feels like I’m not hauling a trailer at all.
Bought this to reduce rear sag in truck and you would think installing is pretty common sense but apparently it isn't. Instructions aren't very clear and since sad didn't go away at all, I'm guessing it isn't installed correctly. Instructions need to be MORE clear than they are otherwise you'll need to pay a professional to install it as I have no idea if it's correct or not.
