Question:
I have a truck with a 2 inch receiver along with a different truck with a 2 1/2 inch receiver. i plan on using the same 2 inch Weigh safe adjustable ball mount for both trucks, is the receiver locking pin long enough to use with the 2 1/2 inch receiver. I will be using an adapter for the larger hitch,

Hi Jason!
I pulled one of the Weigh Safe Hitch w/ Built-In Scale for 2" Hitch - 6" Drop/7" Rise - 15K - Steel # WS78RR from our warehouse and the pin (# WS54CR) has 3-7/16" of useable length. With that said, it will fit 2", 2-1/2", and 3" receivers. There will be no issues using it the way you want.
Speaking of which, is this for a business or do you just have two trucks?
