I'm very happy with the Reese Straitline Trunnion WD head.
What I'm very tired of is the silly 2" -> 2 1/2" sleeve that I need to insert the Shank into, and then into the receiver.
I upgraded trucks last fall and needed a longer drop shank. At first I tried an adapter sleeve and hated it. The additive slop with both the shank and sleeve led to almost 1 1/2" of vertical play in my hitch head. I was not comfortable with that at all and ordered a new 2 1/2" drop shank from Etrailer. The new shank elimniated all of the excess slop.
