The Curt Weight Distribution Shank part # C17132 offers up to 9-1/4" of drop. In order to see if this is enough for your truck/trailer combo you will need to take some measurements. If the distance from the ground to the top inside edge of the trailer hitch is within 9-1/4" from the distance to the ground from the bottom of the trailer coupler while level then you will be good to go.

That said, I am pretty sure the above will have enough drop for most trucks so you should be good to go. The Curt shank is universal so it will work just fine with a Reese Weight Distribution System.
