What is the Length of the Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution Shank BLU64ER?
Updated 10/30/2025 | Published 10/09/2025 >
Question:
The description for BLU64ER says the shank measures 12” from center of the hitch pin hole to the center of the adjustment holes. I see the same description for BXW4003. Can you confirm if this is correct? Also, is there an image with all of the measurements for BLU64ER like there is for BXW4003? Thank you!

Hey Lucas, thanks for reaching out!
The Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution Shank # BLU64ER measures 18" from the center of the hitch pin hole to the adjustment holes. I'm not sure where you're getting the 12" from, but if you can let me know I'd appreciate it so I can send any updates that need to be sent.
We don't have a diagram as detailed as the Shank # BXW4003, but if you let me know what other dimensions you'd like to know, I can see if I can get them.
