Video Transcript for Review of Andersen Replacement 8 Inch Adjustment Shank 2-1/2 Inch Receiver - AN85VR

Hi everybody. Andy here with etrailer. Let's take a quick look at this Andersen replacement adjustment shank for your two and a half inch trailer hitch receiver. Now this is going to be the direct replacement shank for vehicles with a two and a half inch trailer hitch receiver. This is specifically made to work with the Andersen weight distribution hitch hitch systems, including the Andersen weight distribution hitch models, and the Anderson EZ HD combo ball setup. So of course the main purpose of this shank is to help you properly level your trailer and tow vehicle is this is going to offer up to eight inches of drop or when you flip this over eight inches of rye.

So it's gonna make it easier to match the hitch height to your trailer for a safer, more smoother level towing setup. Now keep in mind that this is the shank only. It does not include any additional mounting hardware or hitch components. What you see here is what you're going to get. So this is intended as a replacement part or for upgrading an existing Anderson setup.

In terms of the capacity, this is built for heavy duty towing with a maximum trailer weight of up to 16,000 pounds and a maximum tongue weight up to 1500 pounds, making this suitable for many large travel trailers, toy haulers, and other substantial towing applications. I think that's gonna wrap up our look today. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.
