• Measurements to Top Hole on Fastway e2 Weight Distribution Shank
  I'm not sure which you consider to be the top since the Fastway shank, part # FA92-02-4213, can be flipped so I went ahead and took both measurements. Although, there's very little difference. I found that in the drop position from the top to the center of the first hole is 1-11/16 inches and in the rise position the same measurement is 1-5/8 inches.

• Replacing a Reese Weight Distribution Shank with a Shank with a Taller Rise
  The Fastway e2 Weight Distribution Shank, # FA92-02-4213, will work with your Reese weight distribution head. This shank and your Reese shank # RP54970 have the same width, bolt hole spacing and diameter. Typically, we recommend using a shank from the same manufacturer as your weight distribution system because weight distribution manufacturers do not test their products with products from other manufacturers. For a Reese weight distribution shank with a taller rise, I recommend...

• Can the Shank on the 10K Fastway e2 Weight Distribution System Be Flipped for More Drop
  The Fastway e2 Weight Distribution System part # FA92-00-1000 comes with a shank that can provide a max of 6" rise or 1" drop. That said, these measurements already reflect the shank being flipped or inverted so no matter which direction the shank was installed you could still only achieve 1" drop. However, I do have an option for you that does not require you to buy two shanks, the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution System part # FA94-00-1033 and the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution Shank part...

• Needing Weight Distribution Shank With Greater Drop
  The shank included with the # FA92-00-0600 Fastway weight distriubtion system you'd looked at will provide up to a 6 inch rise or a 1 inch drop, so it sounds like you're needing a shank that provides more drop. For a total of 2 inches of drop, use # FA92-02-4213 for 4 inches, use # FA92-02-4214 or for up to 7 inches, use # FA92-02-4315.

• Adding a Second Weight Distribution Head and Shank for a Fastway Weight Distribution System
  Yes, we do have a head only that will work great for you. It is the replacement Fastway e2 head # FA92-02-1255 for 6K to 12K rated systems or # FA92-02-0410 for the 4.5K system. This head is the exact same as the ones that come in the full kits. You would have to use a Fastway head in order to use the Fastway spring bars. Another brand head will not work. You will also need replacement hardware kit # FA92-02-9600 since the above heads do not include this hardware. For a second shank...

• Will a Different Shank Brand Fit an Equal-I-zer Weight Distribution System
  I actually do not recommend the use of Reese shank # RP54970 with an Equal-I-zer weight distribution system, # EQ37061ET, because the Reese design is such a departure from the Equal-I-Zer design. A shank such as Fastway # FA92-02-4213 or Curt # 17120 are better options and either would work well for you.

• Weight Distribution Replacement Shank to Keep Hitched Trailer Level to Avoid Sway
  You are correct that a level trailer will be less likely to sway and keeping your hitched trailer level will enable a weight distribution (WD) system to function at its best. It is perfectly okay for a hitch ball to be an inch or so higher than the coupler on the level trailer since a little bit of normal squat will even things out but if your trailer is tipped up at the tongue when it is hitched to your F-150 you'll want to select a different shank for your WD hitch that will allow the...

• Fastway Weight Distribution for a V-Nose Trailer with Limited Space on Frame
  With a trailer weighing 3,820 pounds the tongue weight will be in the neighborhood of 380 to 573 pounds which is 10 to 15 percent of the gross trailer weight. But to that you also need to add in the weight of anything loaded behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle. So for example if you had 100 pounds of gear behind the tow vehicle rear axle that would make the tongue weight 480 to 673 pounds. The minimum tongue weight for the Fastway system, # FA94-00-1033, to be effective is 400 pounds....
