Equalizer Hitch Shank Length Question

[zogg]

I've been searching all over and cannot get a good answer....ugh

I am anticipating the purchase of a new Equalizer hitch, but my 2014 Ram 4x4 sits much higher than my old 4x2 truck.

Hence, I'll need a longer shank. Will a Reese or Curt shank work or do I have to buy a special shank for the Equalizer hitch. If I have to buy an Equalizer shank, where the heck can I find one??

This is getting more complex than it needs to be, I think, or I am way over thinking this issue...thanks

I think you'll find that if your truck is at a stock height, the draw bar that comes with the hitch will work.
But if you go higher you'll need a longer draw bar.

I have bought most of my hitch items at etrailer.com, I think someone has a calculator to determine which shank you need. I don't recall where it is, perhaps a sticky.
