Thanks for all the replies...
Its not egged out receiver pin holes because its happened on numerous brand new trucks/sleeves with the 2.5" receiver...
I agree with those that said its the 2.5-2" sleeve insert thats causing the problem, since never had this issue on a 2" receiver.
Talked to Husky about a replacement 2.5" shank for my Husky 14,000 wd hitch. The guy told me last New Years that the new shank I need will be out in a month and gave me the part numbers.
Husky part #
32459_ 2.5" shank (fits existing Husky 2" wd 14,000 hitch)
32464_ complete 15,000# wd hitch kit with 2.5" shank.
Called Husky beginning of last week and asked for the part#32459 2.5" shank and the girl said its still being produced in China, sorry. And they have no idea when it will get here. But the complete new 2.5" hitch is available.
I told her a gentleman at Husky told me last winter it would be ready in a month. I asked if she could find out when it would be available, she said no. I then asked can you please sell me a shank out of a new hitch then replace once they get the 32464 order in. She said no way, sorry, you should just buy the complete new hitch kit.
I'll never buy Husky again.
