I recently bought a new truck, and have a camper with a blue ox sway pro installed. The old tow vehicle used a 2" receiver, and the new truck uses a 2 1/2". I could have bought a sleeve, but thought it would be better in the long run to use an actual 2 1/2" shank. This fit perfect, and works with my sway pro. Installation was easy, but if anyone is doing this, make sure that you go through the process to determine your ball mount height, as it probably won't be a simple swap to the the holes at the same locations on the new shank.
Blue Ox products are great! Better yet is the service and expertise E Trailer gives on everything they sell
Works so much better with the hitch on my F250. Done with the reducer sleeve when using my weight distribution hitch. Shipping was spot on.
It is the part that I needed to upgrade my WDH to my 2.5" receiver. I would wholeheartedly recommend this part over a reducer coupler.
Haven't got to use it yet but nicely built and going with the 2 1/2 receiver end has less movement then the 2 inch
Exactly what I needed for 2 1/2 inch receiver hitch.
Got the right part on time when I needed it. Free shipping on a heavy item like this was a plus.
Seems well made, had to make an adjustment to my WDH to fit properly. Wish the shank that goes into hitch was a little longer, seems short.
Absolutely the best one you can buy. Highly recommend
I bought the Blue OX 2 1/2" shank because I did not like using my 2" shank with a sleeve on my 3/4 ton pickup truck to pull my camper, because of the sloppy fit. I now have less pieces to use and a tighter fit. The ordering and fast delivery was great. I use E trailer for all my trailer needs. There tech support is unmatched.
It bolted right in. I just wish the shank was longer. It is two inches shorter than my old one.
Heavy duty! Replaced a 2” shank. Much better fit without a sleeve.
If you have 2.5" shank receiver tow hitch in a 3/4 ton truck like my Ram 2500, this part fits much tighter and is safer all around as compared to using an adapter to make a 2" receiver shaft fit a 2.5" hitch. Less wear, less noise, better control. It is also very well build with excellent finish and the proper sized pin. And etrailer service is the BEST!
Great service
Wow they always have what you need at a great price delivered promptly. The website is very design and easy to navigate. And the folks there are like good neighbors. Thank you once again you make traveling with my Airstream that much more enjoyable!
Instead of needing a new hitch when I upsized my vehicle they had just the right parts to make going from 2” to 2-1/2” a painless and budget friendly.

Incredible, the best hitch ever. Simple, easy to install, durable and absolutely no sway, in over 28,000 miles.
Always great service and shipping
Quick shipping. Correct product.
My hitch just arrived and is exactly what I was expecting. Do not anticipate any issues when I start using it.
This shank allowed me to level my trailer with a new 3/4 pickup, as they get bigger every few years, and it allows me to forget the hassle of lining up the holes in the receiver with a 2" shank and adapter for a 2 1/2" receiver. With the weight and bulk of hitches this small improvement is quite nice.
Work3d as expected
I needed additional drop on my Blue Ox weight distribution hitch when I bought a RAM Powerwagon. This longer shank worked perfectly! An added plus was the 2 1/2 inch shank that was the same as my receiver hitch. No more adapter that rattles all the time. My trailer now sits level. Thank you.
Exactly what I needed for my 2023 Sierra 2500. Extends a little farther than other hitches and keeps the tailgate from hitting the jack. Used with 9k enclosed trailer with weight distribution hitch.
Ordering from these guys is a breeze. Products arrive quickly and on time. I had to get this distribution shank to switch ball for R/V to another truck. All parts fit. Have a couple of LONG Hauls with it. Everything worked as expected.
This was just as described. I upgraded my truck to a 2500 and found the 2" tongue hitch that came with my tow package would not lower enough to make my travel trailer level. This dropped it about 3 more inches which worked perfect. It also allows for more tongue weight which is very nice.
