Question:

I currently run the 17131 on my F250, with the standard 2inch - 2-5/16inch dual ball setup, but I have to hook up a pig cooker with 1-7/8inch ball, by chance is there a ball mount I can use with my current hitch shank?

Hey Tony, thanks for reaching out!

There aren't any 1-7/8" hitch balls that will fit the Curt Weight Distribution Shank # C17131 you're already using, but I do have a way you can tow your pig cooker by using the Curt Class III Ball Mount # C45055 along with the etrailer Magnetic Hitch Receiver Reducer Sleeve # e28JR. I know it's not exactly what you were hoping for, but the only alternative would be to purchase one of the adjustable tri-ball mounts that are a bit more costly than this setup.
