Can Pro Series Weight Distribution Shank be Used with a Reese Strait-Line Weight Distribution System
Question:
I have an older 1988 Airstream with a Reese dual cam sway control hitch. I’m towing with a 2013 GMC Yukon. Top of receiver to ground is 23.5”. Bottom of hitch to ground is 19”. So it would seem I need 4.5” . The RP63971 gives the . Will it work with that hitch? I don’t want too much or I’ll be dragging ground everywhere. Is there a better option?
