Question:
I currently have the Andersen hitch with the 4” . I got a new vehicle and now need the 8” . Does Andersen sell just the new bar so I can attach my existing no sway hitch kit?

Hey Greg, do you have a 2 inch hitch or a 2-1/2 inch hitch? We currently have a 8 inch drop shank for the Andersen WD systems with the part # AN85VR but if you have a 2 inch hitch I would need to look into getting that shank added to our site.
