Question:

Do you have one 15inch or 16inch long. The 11inch bar is too short for my 2015 RAM 3500 dually. The trucks 2.5inch receiver sits 23.25inch above ground level. I do have the necessary reducing sleeve. Trailer gross weight is 9,975 lbs. I am pulling a StarCraft Autumn Ridge regular trailer. I have EZ equalizer assembly

Expert Reply:

We do offer weight distribution shanks for 2-1/2-inch hitches that are 15-inches long. Using a 2-1/2-inch shank will avoid the need for your reducer sleeve. These items include the Reese # RP54977 for trunnion bar systems that do not use washers for head angle adjustment.

If you have a Curt weight distribution system and/or prefer a 2-inch shank you can use # C17122 which is 16-inches long.
