Adjust the height of a Curt weight distribution hitch for proper trailer leveling and towing geometry. This solid-steel 2" shank provides up to 7" of drop or 10-1/2" of rise with a 15,000-lb GTW rating.
The Curt 17123 provides an adjustable mounting point for Curt weight distribution hitch heads, allowing the hitch height to be matched to the trailer coupler for a more level towing setup. The shank can be installed in either the drop or rise position to accommodate different tow vehicle and trailer heights.
Its 2" x 2" horizontal shank fits compatible receiver hitches with a 5/8" hitch-pin hole. Multiple 3/4" diameter adjustment holes along the vertical section allow the weight distribution head to be repositioned in 1-1/4" increments.
