What Shank Comes with Blue Ox Weight Distribution # BXW0753

Question:

I have an Airstream 2019 Sport 16, and the hitch appears to be an underslung configuration, being even with the bottom of the frame, even though it is welded to top of the frame image attached. I have loaded and weighed the trailer and tow vehicle on a commercial scale, and have determined a tongue weight of 750# to be adequate, with some room to spare. On the etrailer page for the, one picture with dimensions labeled shows a shank with 7 holes, while another picture with all of the parts shows a shank with 6 holes. The description specifies a maximum of 2 inches with the hitch mounted in the furthest position of the long arm of the shank. I will require the maximum , and based upon the etrailer video review, pictures, and description of the BXW0750, I would need a shank with 7 holes to achieve this. The Blue Ox site does not show any shanks with 6 holes. Can you clarify which shank comes with the BXW0753, and confirm the maximum . Thank you.

I attached a picture of the shank that comes with the Blue Ox weight distribution part # BXW0753. The shank has 7 holes and can give a rise of up to 8 inches or a drop of 2 inches.
