Hey Murphy, thanks for reaching out!
We have some longer and lower weight distribution shanks that are pretty universal like the Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution Shank # BXW4003, but if you could give me either the part number of your current shank, or let me know the dimensions, I'll be happy to see if we have something longer and/or lower to accommodate your bigger truck!
Let me know what you find in the comment section below.
