Looking for Drop Shank for Fastway Weight Distribution to Allow Trailer to be Towed Level
Published 06/10/2026 >
Question:
So last year I bought a camper the camper weighs 3,090 pounds and I got the e2 weight distribution hitch for a 17 1500 ram now I’ve upgraded the truck to a 2018 ram 2500slt with the 6.7 what would I need for the 2500? Because I flipped the drop down hitch and it still doesn’t sit right

Hey Joshua, it sounds like you need more drop to allow your trailer to sit level. For that we have the Fastway e2 part # FA92-02-4315 which can do a drop of up to 9-3/4 inches. Do you know about how much drop you need? You'd want to measure from the top of the hitch opening down to the ground and then from the bottom of the coupler lip to the ground and the difference between the two numbers is the amount of drop needed.
