Just bought a new 2011 F350 that has the 2.5 inch receiver hitch. I have the sleeve so it can use my current 2 inch shank, but I'm finding it to be a pain due to the weight of my hitch. I'd like to find a new 2.5 inch shank for my current weight distribution hitch. The problem is I'm having difficulty locating one that will work. Does anyone know of where I can get a solid 2.5 inch shank?

Here's the only 2.5 I could find. If you notice though where the bolt holes are, it's not solid. My current hitch requires a solid wall for getting the angle correct on the hitch:
Draw-Tite, Reese Weight Distributing Class V Titan Shank 54976

Here is the style that I need, but in a 2.5 inch shank version:
Draw-Tite, Reese Weight Distributing Class III & IV Adjustable Shank 3215

Can anyone point me to a solid shank 2.5 inch version?

 

Try this link. http://www.etrailer.com/dept-pg-Acce...pc-Shanks.aspx I think this is what you are looking for. Last one down.

 

Sorry my mistake.

 

Will this work HitchSource.com - Trailer hitches, hitch covers, bike racks ? I show catalog listings for three Equal-i-zer shanks that look like your picture for 2 1/2" receiver.

That looks like a winner! Thanks.
