Using a 2.5" to 2" reducer with WD Hitch
So the new TV I just bought has a Class V hitch (2.5" receiver), and my WD hitch is for Class IV (2"). I decided to buy a reducer for $12 from Amazon. Part came in today and it says Warning: Do not...

When I purchased my Silverado 2500 it came with the reducer, I used it and it did seem a little sloppy. I took the truck to the dealer and explained my concern.
They took the truck in and welded the reducer to the hitch, I mean they welded that bad boy, not simple tacking, a full bead all around front and back!
Even put a coat of paint on it!!
Done deal,works great!!
Only issue now is finding a locking hitch pin for my bike rack, I have a standard locking hitch pin,, but the one for my bike rack is an anti wobble but not long enough!
My WD hitch is nice and snug no rattles or wobble anymore!!
Take it to a welder and have them weld it in, I do not tow anything that requires a 2-1/2 shank!
