Not sure if this is possible (searching hasn't helped much - too many keywords I think). I've got a 2014 2500 CC 6.4, and bought a new trailer last year. The standard drop shank wasn't long enough that came with the equalizer hitch, so I bought the 10" drop (I believe it was 10). Anywho.... Now I have an extra shank, and am looking at buying a drop hitch.

Is there a "thing" I can buy to put on the drop shank and turn it into a drop hitch? Everything I'm coming up with is either a full drop hitch setup, or a replacement WDH head for the shank - neither of which I want. If I can get an adjustable "base" - cool. Otherwise I'll just look at picking up a set drop for my ATV trailer I'm picking up today. Hoping I can at least get it home with the 2" drop I had for my old truck.

Look at Costway or Maxx Haul and contact them to see if they will get you just the part that attaches to the shank...I have the same kinda thing too.

Draw-Tite has a similar setup too.
