How Much Rise And Drop Does The Blue Ox TrackPro Weight Distribution Allow For?
Updated 09/08/2025 | Published 06/03/2025 >
Question:
I have a 1995 F250 with an add on bumper that forces me to use the shank in the direction. Can you tell me what the rise is, if any, when using the highest mount point? Thanks!

Hello David, thanks for reaching out. The Blue Ox TrackPro Weight Distribution System # BLU47FR comes with a 7-hole shank. This can do up to 2" of drop and 8" of rise depending what position you use it in. That is measured from the center of the hitch pin hole to the center of the ball.
I hope this helps. Reply on this page and let me know if there is anything else you need.
