Bushing reduces Titan Class V receiver opening (2-1/2" x 2-1/2") to a Class III or IV receiver opening (2" x 2").


Features:

  • Adapts a 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" hitch receiver opening into a 2" x 2"
    • Works with factory-installed and after-market trailer hitches with a 2-1/2" square receiver opening
      • To use with Ford Super Duty pickups, modification may be required
  • Allows you to use your 2" towing and hitch-mounted accessories


Note: Ford OEM hitches have a tighter/different radius on their 2-1/2 inch receiver tubes. To accommodate the OEM Ford 2-1/2 inch hitch, the corners of a ball mount, shank or reducer sleeve may need to be sanded down to slide into the hitch. Do not remove any more material than necessary. Simply removing the paint or powder-coat is often sufficient.


Never use a grinder to knock-down the corners, which may remove too much material and will also heat the accessory and could compromise the product's structural integrity. This is especially the case with cast accessories like larger weight distribution shanks.

Video Transcript for Reese Titan Hitch Reducer Sleeve Review

Hi there, heavy haulers. Today we're gonna be taking a look at Reese's Titan 2.5-2 inch reducer sleeve. And this is what our reducer sleeve looks like. You can see the sleeve here, how it takes up the extra space in our 2.5 inch hitch there. And we've got a 2 inch shank on our accessory here and that'll slide on the inside. So you could see how this would allow this component to now work in there.

The hole that's located in it is offset. And it's kinda nice that it's offset, that's gonna help with the versatility of it a little bit, because some of your receivers are not straight through, this one here is and it's completely hollow on the inside. So this can slide all the way through and out the back. It hits our spare tire, so it won't go all the way. But some receivers actually have a plate on the back that prevents things from going in all the way.

So that way we've got the option to put our hole closer to the mouth here if we need to, if that's the case so we could put it like this, just depends on which is the best orientation for our accessories. The shank is completely hollow on this, so you can slide it as far as you need to on your accessories. Say, solid steel construction with a black powder coat finish on to help protect against rust and corrosion. And this adapter is gonna be great for any accessories that you have, that have a 2 inch shank that you wanna place into your hitch that is a 2.5 inch opening. It simply slides over the shank of your accessory and then slides into the receiver of your 2.5 inch hitch.

There's a hitch pin hole that's inside of our adapter that will allow our hitch pin to slide through so we can secure it just like we would any other accessory. Now you do wanna keep in mind that some of the accessories anti-rattle will not fully function. You can see we've got a little bit of play still here because this style, as you tighten this down, it pulls the component tight against the hitch pin, which is pulling it tight against our adapter but isn't pulling it tight against the hitch. But if you have accessories that use a bolt that tightens in from the side, it'll pull everything to the side and tighten it down just like normal and you'll have that anti-rattle. So we've gone ahead and pulled our bike rack out.

And it's also gonna work with your ball mounts. If you wanna pull a trailer, this thing will adapt it as well. If you maybe already have a 2 inch shank ball mount laying around with what you got your truck, and it came with a 2.5 inch receiver. Then we'll slide it in, you can see we've got our holes kinda lined up there. And then we can take our hitch pin and clip, slide it through each and secure it on the other side. And we'll secure it with the clip on the other side. And you can see here we've now got our 2 inch shank ball mount secured on the back of our hitch, we're ready to hook up to whatever trailer we need to with this ball mount. All this adapter does is take up the extra space between your shank and your receiver on your hitch. It doesn't affect the weight ratings of your components that are installed in it, but you wanna make sure that you do realize that the lowest rated component is going to be your maximum rating that you can use. So let's say this hitch is rated for 15,000 pounds, but we can see here this is written on top, that it's rated for a maximum of 10,000 pounds on our ball. And this ball here actually says it's rated for a maximum of 7,500 pounds. So in our current configuration our maximum is gonna be 7,500 pounds because that's our lowest component. And that's gonna be the same regardless whether or not you're using this in a 2 inch hitch or you're using it in a 2.5 here with an adapter sleeve like we are. And that completes our look at Reese's Titan 2.5-2 inch reducer sleeve..

Reese Titan Reducer Sleeve 2-1/2" to 2" - 58102

Average Customer Rating:  4.7 out of 5 stars   (249 Customer Reviews)

Bushing reduces Titan Class V receiver opening (2-1/2" x 2-1/2") to a Class III or IV receiver opening (2" x 2").

by:

This ain't pretty. But size does matter. The 58102 2" X 2 1/2" receiver adapter hits the spot. It fits nicely into the 2 1/2" receiver with, at most, 1/8" space "slap" room. It's almost full length front to back inside receiver providing plenty of support for my 2" weight distribution system without slap. I have not hooked up my Forest River 29'4", 10,7 75 lb. GVWR Puma tow behind R/V but I do not have any fear of this well constructed, perfect fitting receiver adapter. The people at etrailer are there, willing and able to assist you. I have personally found that, if the C.S. Rep doesn't know the answer, she/he will find the answer and report back to you, in my case within minutes. My purchase was delivered (snail mail) within 5 days and In excellent condition. I will report back shortly after a trial run hooked up.



by:

Wish these adapters were longer, but it gets the job done with some extra rattle from the sloppy fit. It will get me by till I get a better fitting 2 1/2" draw bar.

Thank you for your review. All adapters will fit a little differently depending on the powder coat finish. Sometimes even, there is too much and it needs filed. In your case because you have some play you can always pair it with an anti-rattle device.



by:

This fits a Curt 2 1/2 receiver perfectly. Allows me to use receiver with my various drawbars for different trailers when I am not using the Forklift hitch box extension.

Fine sold the truck to neighbor who makes good use of it with camper.



by:

As has been widely reported this thing does not fit "snugly" into the 2 & 1/2" hitch receiver. Because the reducer sleeve is not a "snug" fit it rattles around a bit and is showing signs of wear around the pin hole. Fortunately I bought a 2 & 1/2" shank instead of relying solely on the reducer.



by:

Over the last couple of years, I have purchased different parts for my towing needs from etrailer.com. The parts have ranged from hitch adapters to trailer tires. The customer service from Crystal K., and the quality of the products from etrailer.com have all been the very best that you could expect. I highly recommend that you at least consider etrailer.com for anything that you may need when you are towing or RV'ing.



by:

I ordered 2 hitch adapters (sleeves) an a hitch pin from etrailer over the phone because I could not find mine and I wanted to get these shipped quickly before I left on my hunting trip a few days later. I called late in the day, about an hour before closing, but Cathy still worked magic and got my shipment put together and on the truck that night! My items arrived a couple of hours before I planned to leave. Cathy saved the beginning of my trip!

For the review of the 2 square pieces of metal tubing --- they worked great :-). This review is for the outstanding customer service I've experienced each time I've ordered anything from etrailer.com, but especially this time from Cathy.



by:

This is just perfect. When I bought my new truck I was very surprised that I now had a 2-1/2 inch hitch receiver. Of course my 2 inch hitches and accessories didn't fit plus I had to get another receiver pin to fit the 2-1/2. I will have to say etrailers on-line was a great experience. They had what I needed and the prices were very reasonable. Thanks. I will definitely be back for more trailer accessories.



by:

Reducer worked great for my GMC 2 1/2 inch hitch. Received Blue Ox Sway Pro WD 2" hitch with no problems. Used the 2 1/2 inch hitch lock to secure everything in place. Very little movement and fit snug as a bug. Great Product. Fast Shipping. As always Amazing customer service!



by:

The part itself is just like the way it was described. I have a 2011 F-250, I read in the reviews that the piece wouldn't slide in unless some of the corner were ground down, with this information I didn't think it would be a big deal. I have not used it yet. I slid the part into my hitch and it fit, in my opinion a little too loose, I also slid it into my reciever and it too seemed a little too loose fitting. May have to buy a 2 1/2 receiver instead.



by:

The part fit up in a 2 1/2" receiver on a F250 without issue, despite multiple reports that some massaging might be needed to fit the factory hitch. Normally, I would give this 5 stars and the product, while not complex, works as advertised. The 4 star rating is due to the country of origin - China.



by:

This adapter saved me from replacing all of my 2" hitches when I bought my 2012 chevy 2500hd. You will need a longer pin, but works quite well. It fits great, but does have a little slack. That may be because my hitch has some wear on it. Works perfectly.



by:

Very snug fit into my 2.5" receiver and accepted the 2" drawbar nicely. There is almost no side to side movement which my anti rattle pin will take care of but there is up and down play in it. I think my drawbar isn't quite 2" sqaure because this piece definitely is.



by:

I bought this to use a bike carrier in my 2 1/2 inch Curt hitch receiver. Fit perfectly on the bike carrier and into the 2 1/2 inch receiver. Katie D. did a great job making sure that it would fit without potential modification warned for Ford factory hitches.



by:

Have used the adapter for a year now and have had no issues. The unit wiggles a little when in place but I image that is necessary for it to slide into place correctly. The unit does not wiggle once connected to the trailer and I can't hear any noises coming from the hitch when towing. I would buy this unit again.



by:

Received this reducer within 4 days of ordering it which was impressive. Installed into my receiver and am very satisfied. I can feel just so ever lightly a little play but nothing that would ever cause me concern pulling our 37" travel trailer. Upon installing the ball hitch into this again very very little play if any.



by:

I expected the Reese Titan Reducer Sleeve 21/2 Reducer sleeve to be a very tight fit for my stock 2011 F250 Super Duty hitch. Instead, it fit a little too easy with some slop. Don't like the slop, therefore, I rated as only Good.



by:

LIKE A GLOVE - 2019 F250 Lariat - Ordered as a reduction sleeve for my new trucks Class V trailer hitch. Received this very quickly and this part is BEEFY.. I Just removed the sticky label and inserted into the 2 1/2" hitch receptical, added the pin to secure it. DONE.



by:

Fit perfectly on my 2016 Ford F350 Dually.



by:

Image attached



by:

Does what is says reduces the opening on the ford titan hitch. The drilled thru hole should be just a 1/8 inch towards the rear more so it is flush on the hitch opening when inserted, but doesn't affect anything.



by:

Works Great !



by:

Perfect fit. No trouble at all installing either the pin or my 2" ball mount hitch. A previous sleeve I bought locally wouldn't even slide into the 2-1/2" receiver, but that wasn't the case with the Reese Titan reducer.



by:

I received my item today. The online purchase was easy and the product was well described. Tracking was great with their order tracking system. My order arrived on time and exactly when promised. The product works great. Thank you Etrailer.com



by:

The quality of this item is good, but there is way too much play between the both the sleeve, the receiver tube, and the ball mount. I would say that my ball moves up-to-down and side-to-side 3/4" at the tip. I am going to have to make some shims just to tighten the tolerance so the receiver won't CLUNK everytime I stop or hit a bump.



by:

Purchased this item for my new 2011 F250 that, following the big 3 towing wars, now coms with a 2.5" reciever. This will not fit into stock 2.5" recievers as it has a heavy coating of paint. Be ready to grind paint off to get it to fit into your reciever! We'll see how long it lasts uncoated.

Newer Ford 2.5 inch receivers use a tighter corner radius than most so these adapters often need to have the finish removed at the corners to fit.

  • Recommendation to Reduce Aluminum Ball Mount Wear Due to Steel Hitch Receiver
    The Draw-Tite QSP Trailer Hitch Silencer and Cover for 2" Hitch Receivers # 63080 is the closest thing we have found to what you are seeking. This plastic part does serve as an anti-rattle and will reduce that wear from the softer metal. There isn't a plastic sleeve reducer for the inside of the receiver as that would break down and eventually either change towing capacity or create rattle.

  • Fit Issue With Reducer Sleeve # C45405 On A 2011 Ford F350 Super Duty With OEM Hitch
    It has come to our attention that there are fit issues with 2-1/2 inch accessories and 2-1/2 inch OEM Ford hitches. Ford uses a tighter/different radius on the inside corners of their 2-1/2 inch receiver tubes. Some accessories will drop in just fine, but fairly often the accessory will not fit in the hitch, be it a WD shank, reducer sleeve, or draw bar. To accommodate the OEM Ford 2-1/2 inch hitch, it is fine to sand the corners of a ball mount or shank down to get it to slide into the...

  • Will Curt 2-1/2 Shank Work With Reese 2 Weight Distribution System
    Yes, weight distribution shanks are pretty much universal so you can use can swap them out for one another across brands. The Curt Weight Distribution Shank part # C17131 is a great option which offers up to 3-1/4" of drop. I have attached a full list of options below with 2-1/2" shank.

  • Bike Rack for a 2003 Lexus LX470
    Unfortunately, this reducer sleeve is designed for large 2-1/2 inch x 2-1/2 inch receiver hitches normally found on super-duty pickup trucks. If you already have a hitch on your LX470, it is most likely a standard 2 inch x 2 inch receiver. All of the trailer hitch receivers we offer for your 2003 Lexus LX470 are 2 inch Class III receivers. This means that any 2 inch hitch mounted bike rack should work with your hitch.

  • Does Using a Reducer Sleeve that Overhangs a 2-1/2 Inch Trailer Hitch Reduce the Towing Capacity
    It is normal to see some overhang when using a reducer sleeve such as # C45405. The # 45054 has a lip that prevents it from going all the way into the receiver, making it easy to remove. A reducer sleeve should not reduce the tongue weight or towing capacity of the hitch. However, if your trailer hitch is a factory hitch check the owner's manual of the vehicle to determine if there are any special provisions mentioning a reducer sleeve.

  • Hitch Receiver Reducer for Towing a Horse Trailer With Ford F350
    It is perfectly safe to use a reducer like the # C45405 you referenced. Using the reducer will not reduce the amount of weight the vehicle can tow, but a ball mount for a 2x2 receiver would typically has a lower towing and tongue weight capacity than a ball mount for a 2-1/2x2-1/2 receiver would. Just be sure that the weight of the fully loaded trailer does not exceed the weight of the lowest rated component of the towing system, like the hitch, ball mount, trailer ball, etc. If your...

  • Will Curt Trailer Hitch Reducer C45405 Fit a 2-1/2 Inch Trailer Hitch
    If you have a Class III trailer hitch, then it will have a 2 inch receiver opening. When you measure the receiver, make sure that you are measuring just the width of the opening and not the outside dimensions. Take a look at the FAQ I have linked for some additional information. If you do have a 2-1/2 inch Class V trailer hitch, then you could use the reducer sleeve, # 5C45405. But, I am confident that you have a 2 inch receiver. I have included a link to all of the trailer hitch mount...

  • What Would Cause the Top of a Trailer Hitch Ball to Wear Excessively After 300 Miles
    If the ball is smaller than what the coupler requires then the coupler would be able to move around quite a bit and wear down the ball. If the ball is the right size then excessive tongue weight could be a factor. The trailer tongue weight is typically 10 to 15 percent of he gross trailer weight. The ball you use will need to be rated higher than the gross trailer weight. You can also lubricate the ball so that there is less friction. Some ball lube such as # 58117 would work well for...

  • 2-1/2 inch Hitch Shank Recommendation for an Equalizer Weight Distribution Used in 2015 Ford F-350
    You will just want to replace the shank of your Equalizer system with one designed to fit 2-1/2 inch hitches. The part # EQ90-02-4900 will fit your system, is designed to fit a 2-1/2 inch hicth and can do 10 inches of rise or 6 inches of drop.

  • How To Choose Correct 2.5" Weight Distribution Shank
    In regards to choosing the correct weight distribution shank, you really only need to pay attention to the hitch size and rise/drop. The brand won't matter as much as they are all pretty much universal in this regard. The Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank part # EQ90-02-4800 is correct for most setups as it offers up to 4" of drop. I have attached a full list of options below as well as an article to find the correct rise/drop if you don't know what that is.

  • Will the Use of a 2-1/2 Inch to 2 inch Trailer Hitch Reducer Sleeve Reduce the Hitch Capacity
    You have a couple of options. The best thing to do would be to use a ball mount that fits in your hitch. The reason is that you will not have to worry about a reducer sleeve fitting, any capacity reduction, or adding another component in the system. For 2-1/2 inch receivers we have # RP45323 for an 18,000 pound fixed ball mount. The other option is to use a reducer, # C45405. The hitch capacity should not be dramatically changed so if it is rated to tow the 13,000 pounds you need to tow,...

  • Weight Distribution System Recommendation for a Trailer Weighing 14,000 lbs
    Manufacturer weight capacities must always be adhered to. If Ford says that you can't tow more than 12,500 lbs using a hitch reducer then that is what you need to use as a capacity. Sounds like you are planning on towing a heavy trailer. Replacing your hitch and then getting a WD system would be one option, but it most likely wouldn't be cost effective. It sounds like you are trying to tow a trailer that is heavy enough that your vehicle calls for the use of a WD system. Going to a different...

  • Weight Distribution System for 2008 Ford F-250 Towing 12,000 lb
    Hitch reducers like the Curt sleeve part # C45405 that you referenced do not reduce the weight capacity of the hitch they are installed in. The only type of hitch size adapter that does reduce capacity are ones that go from a smaller size to a bigger size. You're going to be pretty close to the capacity of your truck so a weight distribution system would be a very good idea. For a weight distribution system rated well for 1,500 lbs of tongue weight the Reese part # RP66075. This has a...

  • Welding a 2 Inch Receiver to a Steel Plate on a 1998 GMC C/K Series Pickup Truck
    Reducer sleeve # C45405 is made of steel. The same steel used to make trailer hitches. The wall thickness is 1/4 but varies slightly from sleeve to sleeve. This reducer sleeve is not really meant for the purpose you want. I have a better option for you. You could use a hitch fabrication part such as # E-9, # E-11, # 2852, # 80818, or # E17. The ones that are raw steel would be much better for welding and they are designed for applications like you are describing.

  • Can a 2-1/2 to 2 Inch Reducer Sleeve be Used with Weight Distribution Systems
    Generally speaking the use of a reducer sleeve does not decrease the capacity of a trailer hitch. However some hitch manufacturers may have a reduced capacity if a sleeve is used. There isn't a standard for all hitches and all reducer sleeves. It depends on the hitch and the sleeve. The weight distribution system may also have a reduced capacity which should be in the literature for your weight distribution system. The other option is to replace the weight distribution shank with one that...
