BulletProof Hitches 2" Weight Distribution Shank

The BulletProof Hitches 2" Weight Distribution Shank is a solid steel 2" shank designed to connect most weight distribution heads to a 2" receiver tube, with 7 adjustable ride heights rated to 22,000 lbs trailer weight and 3,000 lbs tongue weight. It can be run in the drop or rise position, making it useful after suspension modifications or larger tire fitments that change ride height.

Seven Ride Heights for a Level Tow

The shank's holes are 3/4" in diameter and spaced 1-1/4" on center along the 2" vertical shank, giving seven distinct mounting positions for the weight distribution head. That range of adjustment matters when a lifted or lowered tow vehicle needs more drop or rise than a standard shank provides: a level trailer connection reduces sway, improves braking balance, and keeps tongue weight distributed correctly across both axles.

Broad Weight Distribution Head Compatibility

The 2" shank width and standard hole spacing are sized to work with most weight distribution heads on the market, so buyers who already own a WD system are not locked into a proprietary replacement. One corrosion-resistant pin and R-clip are included to secure the shank in the receiver tube.

Specifications

Who This Is For and Isn't

This shank suits tow-vehicle owners who run a weight distribution system and need a replacement or upgrade shank, particularly those who have modified their suspension or installed larger tires and now require more drop or rise than their original shank provides. The 7-position adjustment range and broad WD-head compatibility make it a practical fit for most 2" receiver setups.

This is the shank only. No weight distribution head, spring bars, or brackets are included. The BulletProof Locking Pin is not compatible with this shank. It does not fit 1-1/4" or 2-1/2" receivers.

Common Questions

Does this shank include a weight distribution head or spring bars?

The BulletProof Hitches 2" Weight Distribution Shank is sold as the shank only. No weight distribution head, spring bars, or brackets are included. Buyers need to source or already own a compatible WD head separately.

Will the BulletProof Locking Pin work with this shank?

No. The BulletProof Locking Pin is not compatible with the BulletProof Hitches 2" Weight Distribution Shank. The shank ships with a corrosion-resistant pin and R-clip to secure it in the receiver tube.

Can this shank be used in the rise position as well as the drop position?

Yes. The BulletProof Hitches 2" Weight Distribution Shank can be installed in either the drop or the rise position, which is useful when a lifted tow vehicle needs the WD head raised rather than lowered to achieve a level trailer connection.

What receiver size does this shank require?

The BulletProof Hitches 2" Weight Distribution Shank is designed for a 2" receiver tube. It is not sized for 1-1/4" or 2-1/2" receivers.
