ProPride 2" vs. 2.5" Hitch Bar
I have the ProPride hitch for my setup (see below) and when I originally ordered it, I didn't think to specify the larger 2.5" hitch bar that my truck has. So, I've been using the 2" bar it came with...

OP: Most drawbars that I have seen are rated the same in the 2:" and 2.5" version. So in most cases there is no advantage of the 2.5" one. In fact the 2" may be better as it can be used in any 2" receiver if needed in a pinch.
Mine DOES have different ratings according to the label on the draw bar.
With the adapter (ie. 2"), the maximum tow rating with weight distribution is 12,500 and a tongue weight of 1,250.
Without the adapter (ie. 2.5"), the max tow rating is 18,500 with weight distribution and a 1,850 tongue weight.
