Question:
I have a 2017 F250 and need a longer shank to gain greater separation btw truck and trailer to be able to open tailgate when hitched up and more than my current shank to get trailer leveled. Is this shank compatible the hole measurements and size are the same, but is there anything Im missing.

Yes, the Curt Weight Distribution Shank part # 17120 will work with your Husky Center Line Weight Distribution System. Almost all of the weight distribution system shanks we carry are universal. It will provide you with 10" from the center of the pin hole to the center of the adjustment holes and up to a 5-3/4" drop for trunnion bar systems.
If you instead need something even longer, we have the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Shank part # EQ90-02-4600 which measures about 14-1/2" from the center of the pin hole to the center of the adjustment holes and up to a 4" drop for trunnion bar systems.
