Distance from Pin Hole Center to End of Bar on Reese Weight Distribution Shank RP63971
Updated 03/27/2013 | Published 03/24/2013 >
Question:
What distance is the hitch pin hole to the end of the hitch ? I currently have the 63970 shank and I cannot use the 1500lbs hole because the shank is touching the spare tire mounted behind the receiver on my Kia Borrego 2009.

I pulled one of the # RP63971 weight distribution shanks from our warehouse to measure, and the distance from the center of the pin hole to the rear edge of the shank is 4 inches. I am including a picture showing the measurements I took while I had the shank available.
