I use a Blue ox 2000 and it is a 2 1/2" shank my TT is 1250# unloaded and closer to 1550# with 60 gal water. I think to use 2000# bars you HAVE to use a 2 1/2" shank(Call Blue ox). My hitch is set at the same height as the trailer when level and I use the 9th link (blue ox recommended) and to help crank the chains I have a 18"and 25" breaker bar and socket. Keep in mind that the 2 1/2" shank weights 60#.
