Hello again, Sam. We do offer a shank for a 2-1/2" hitch that can be used with your Strait-Line WD system, but Reese actually does not make one. What I recommend is the Blue Ox TrackPro Weight Distribution Shank for 2-1/2" Hitches # BLU26FR. This is for a 2-1/2" hitch and it will work with your Reese Strait-Line system. This is a 9-hole shank so it will give you up to 101-/2" or rise or 4-1/2" of drop.
