Question:
In reference to BandW BWTS20040B, what is the measurement in inches from the top of the shank to the bottom of the vertical part? My truck is a 2015 Chevrolet 2500HD with a leveling kit and 33.5” tires. Thank you.

Hey, Vince!
I went to take a look at the B&W Tow & Stow part # BWTS20040B for ya and from the very top to the very bottom it's a little over 11". You will also want to make sure that you have a minimum of 11" from the bottom of the adjustable part of the shank to the ground. That way you know you have enough ground clearance.
What kind of trailer are you towin?

Hey Vince, how did the B&W Tow & Stow work out with your 2500HD and the leveling kit? Did the 11-inch measurement give you enough ground clearance when towing? Your feedback could help others trying to match a similar setup.
