Weight Distribution Shanks

The weight distributing shank is the piece that slides into the receiver hitch and provides the attachment point for the weight-distributing hitch head.

These shanks are available with several different lengths, drops, and rises. For safe, comfortable towing, the trailer should always be set up to tow on a level plane. The shank will allow you to do this. Just follow step 1 and 2 to determine how to measure correctly for your shank...

Length, Drop and Rise

Length: Distance from the center of the ball hole to the center of the pin hole.

Drop: Distance from the top of the shank to the top of the ball platform.

Rise: Distance from the top of the shank to the top of the ball platform.
