Helpful Expert Reply:

The Gen-Y Torsion Weight Distribution Shank - 2" Hitches - 6-1/2" Drop/Rise - 1,700 lbs TW, part # 325-GH-1202, would actually be your best option since it's specifically designed to work with weight distribution systems. This would essentially replace your Andersen shank (stinger), and give you 6 mounting positions along with a significantly smoother ride thanks to its shock absorbing design.

That being said, if you wanted to use the Gen-Y Torsion 2-Ball Mount w/ Stacked Receivers # 325-GH-1225, it will indeed accept your Andersen 2 inch weight distribution shank without a problem.

Andersen does make some weight distribution hitches that use a separate shank from the head, for which part # 325-GH-1202 would be a better option. Since yours is welded, then the Gen-Y Ball Mount # 325-GH-1225, would be what you'd want to use.
