Does exactly what it should!

Excellent product. Exactly what I expected from a short 2016 GMC 3500hd diesel pulling a Shockwave24 tqrmx toyhauler.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Difficult to say

The only way to get a 2 1/2 " hitch

New hitch needs to be fitted to a 2 1/2" receiver. The 2-inch shaft that came with the hitch became an expensive paperweight.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Only available in black

It's a 15,000lb beast

Heaviest hitch I've ever seen. The weight is 15,000 pounds as no one can answer that question and I'm sure others will too. Here's the beast!

Pros
  • Beautifully packaged
Cons
  • Plug required

Great product in receiver

Purchased for a 2011 Silverado 2500 with a 2.5" receiver. Not installed yet but should work fine with e2 wdh. The stem was 2 inches shorter than it could hook a 2010 Jayco 32bhds. The truck has a 4x4 wheel formula so it needs height. Couldn't rotate the stock and get the height I needed.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • 0

Exactly what I needed!

This replaced my 2" hitch. It fitted my 2 1/2" receiver pretty well, although there was definitely some wiggle room, which I don't particularly like. It works the way I need it to. Is it ideal, no. Does it work as advertised, yes. I regret it didn't like my purchase and would buy it again.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Fine

Big piece of steel! And durable too!

This 2.5" shaft is a heavy, tough piece of steel! It fits easily into my 2017 Ram 4x4 Long Bed. Seven adjustment holes is one more than my previous stock that came with my weight distribution hitch. Time will tell if I need that extra bottom hole adjustment. I recommend this product to anyone who wants a quiet and reliable device.

Pros
  • A sea of good vibes
Cons
  • No show

Better use the adapter sleeve

I upgraded my truck receiver from a 2" receiver to a Class 5 Curt 2.5" receiver. I needed a new stock for my weight distribution system to tow our camper. I bought a socket adapter but wasn't happy with the amount of goo and hoped this would fix the situation. This was a huge improvement. The stock fits 2.5" receivers. The area where the weight distribution studs attach is 2" wide. I wish the Curts specs had this, I had to search to verify before ordering. The weight distribution system was…

Pros
  • Handy item
Cons
  • So far so good
