Shank Recommendation for Equal-i-Zer Weight Distribution for Additional Drop
Question:
Currently have a dealer installed 2 year old Equalizer sway hitch on a 2011 Toyota 4runner and 2017 16foot Airstream Sport. Works great except the trailer is still a little high about 2inch at the tongue. The adjustable receiver shank is already mounted at the bottom hole 6 hole total . Are lower shanks available?

Expert Reply:
Yes there are weight distribution shanks that give you the additional drop you'll need so that your trailer can be towed level. Since you most likely have the # EQ90-02-4500 which is what comes with the Equal-i-Zer kits the shank we offer that would give you a few more inches of drop would be the part # EQ90-02-4300 and you'd be set.
