Question:
We purchased the e25ZV 4” . Tow vehicle is 2013 Yukon Denali. The 4” added 10 1/2 inches between the weight distribution hitch and the pin in vehicle receiver. That looks like to much distance to me. Pulling a 27’ travel trailer that weighs 6000 lbs. What is the specification? Thanks

Expert Reply:
Hey Rick, the part # e25ZV was not designed to be used with a trailer towing setup. Especially weight distribution as it adds quite a bit more strain on the setup. If you need more length from a weight distribution setup it's best to go with a longer shank like the part # BLU74ER. Are you needing more drop as well?

I ordered a 325-GH-303 to get a little drop. That should work shouldn’t it?
