Good morning. Im looking to buy the Equalizer Hitch antisway system. I noticed they list some required parts that are not included below: Adjustable shank and trailer hitch ball sold separately Ball requires threaded, 1-1/4inch diameter shank that is no longer than 2-3/8 Will my existing hitch ball work? How can I tell? Thanks

You would need to measure the shank of your current hitch ball to see if it would be compatible. You will need to measure the width of the threaded portion of the ball as well as the length of that same portion.
For a hitch ball that fits the required dimension you would want part # 63018 for a 2 inch ball or part # 63019 for a 2-5/16 inch ball.
For a shank you could use the part # 17120 as it would be compatible and would work well.
