Question:

I have a 24 F250 and a 21 Jayco travel trailer. The F250 receiver is higher than the Jayco hitch. Will this receive my load dist, hitch for my trailer safely?

Hey John, unfortunately the Gen-Y Phantom X # GY27VR can not be used with a weight distribution system. It sounds like you just need a different shank for your WDS to bring your trailer level.

What system do you have right now, and how much more drop do you need? Let me know in the comments and I'd be more than happy to take a look at what we have!

I have a Fastway e2 WDH. The truck hitch height is 20" and the trailer height is 16", so I need at least a 4" drop. Thanks

@JohnF Hey John thanks for that info. With that said, it sounds like you just need the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution Shank # FA92-02-4100. This shank is for Fastway weight distribution systems, measures 12" long, and has 4" of drop.
