Are There Anti-Sway Options 2.5" Hitch?

I recently purchased a 2016 Ford F250 to replace my older Yukon. I have a WDH with a 2" shank but now I need a 2.5" shank to fit (not comfortable with the sleeve I've been using). I no longer need to use the weight distribution bars as my trailer is no more than 7,000 pounds loaded and the truck can handle 12,500 without a WDH but I'd still like to use the friction sway control if possible. However, I cannot find a ball mount that includes a mount for the sway ball, and I cannot find an adapter to add to it for a 2.5" hitch.

Wondering what my options are for this.

Thanks!

As shown in the link above I have been using a Reese 2.5 inch shank for over a decade, our WD hitch has integrated sway control which we use religiously since we tow mostly at interstate speeds often in windy conditions.

You should be able to find a new shank that will fit into 2 1/2" receiver and work with your WDH..
