Question:

Item # EQ90-02-4600 fits a 2 hitch. Is there a 2.5 class 5 version of this shank that you sell?

Expert Reply:

We do have a version of the Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank # EQ90-02-4600 you mention, however it is 6" shorter.

The Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank # EQ90-02-4800 offers the same rise and drop as # EQ90-02-4600, has a maximum tognue weight rating of 1,600-lbs, a maximum towing capacity of 16,000-lbs, and will fit into a 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" trailer hitch receiver.

Alternatively, you could use a hitch reducer sleeve # C45405 which would slip into your receiver and allow you to use # EQ90-02-4600 in your 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" receiver.

I do also recommend adding an anti rattle device # C87UR to your setup to keep everything more stable and quiet.
