Still have it. What do I need to do in order to be able to post in the classifieds?

So when I ordered the truck, the dealer told me that I'd have the 2" receiver, but now I'm doubting that. The only thing the window sticker mentions is the 11500# GVWR package. It doesn't mention anything else. Anyway to tell from the window sticker in case I missed something?

If you have the 2" hitch, it would have been an option listed on the sticker.

The 2.5" adapter works great with all three of my trailering needs. Don't push to far in, it will get stuck as it is tapered

Thanks

Have you asked your dealer or salesperson for one? I did and they didn't bat an eye.

I don't think a guy should have to buy the adapter.

I have the 2.5" receiver and need a 4" riser with a 2 5/16 ball. B&W only does 2". I have the reducing sleeve but I have very little room to spare in my garage. Even with the ball turned around, how much does the DT hitch protrude from the reciever? Any thoughts on the DT compared to B&W ?? I like the DT locking features but not looking forward to having to grind my receiver to make it fit. Was that an isolated incident?? Seems like it.

My new truck came in yesterday and they shipped it with a 2.5" to 2" adapter from the factory. I told the dealer that it better be there when I pick it up. I have been thinking about it all afternoon and I think I will go back and pull it out..... Would hate to lose it...

I have a 2.5" hitch,, just cut a piece of 2" box steel, drilled a coup[le of 5/8 holes, works great. You do need a longer locking pin, non locking pin worked OK.
