Compatibility of Curt #17120 Weight Distribution Shank on an Eazlift Elite Round Bar WD System
Updated 04/06/2016 | Published 04/03/2016 >
Question:
I own an Eazlift Elite Round Bar load leveling hitch, 2. I recently purchased a 2015 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 and my current draw bar will not give me the 5-1/2 inch drop I now need. So my question, is the 17120 draw bar compatible with my Eazlift Elite setup giving me my drop needed ? Thank you

To ensure fitment of the Curt Weight Distribution Shank # 17120, you will want to compare measurements to your Eazlift Elite Round Bar Hitch. This shank is designed to give a max drop of 6-1/8 inches with round bar systems, so if it fits it will provide you with your desired drop.
The Curt shank will be 2 inches thick, which is pretty standard, but the important measurements to check will be the bolt hole center measurement and has a bolt hole diameter. This Curt shank has a 1-1/4 inch bolt hole center to center distance and have a bolt hole diameter of 3/4 of an inch.
You will want to check this on your Eazlift setup since we do not carry this brand I cannot be sure that this will work for you. If the measurements line up then it will fit and therefore be compatible.
