I just ordered a 2020 2500 4x4 CCSB Bighorn. I may or may not need a new shank if the height is much different than my old truck.

If you have a 2019 Bighorn without air or off road can you send me your hitch height?

Thanks in advance!

It sure the Big Born are any different from the others minus the PW. I came from a f250 leveled with rear air bags and these trucks sit pretty high. I don’t know my receiver height but I know the drop hitch I have nearly isn’t long enough of one of my trailers. I can measure tomorrow.

Not here. Why not give a phone call or email to the dealer or salesman that you purchased from? Surely they have one on their lots.

I have the Bighorn CCSB 4x4 with the off road performance suspension package. The top of the receiver tube is about 24" from the ground. I didn't measure, but the top of the hitch ball on my EQ4 hitch is level with the top of the shank. That is the ball height for my travel trailer. Should be within an inch or less although I saw in another post where someone had the Bighorn 4x4 and they measured theirs at 26"

2500 CCSB, 4X4. 6.4, bighorn sport, 2957lb payload. Looks like 24" to center on mine. Have 3/4 tank and a small pressure washer in the bed

What was your "old truck?" Did ya measure it (ground to shank)?

Old truck was 2009 Ram 2500 CCSB. With the TV parked on level ground, from the ground to the top of the hitch receiver opening was 24"

I suspect you're gonna be pretty close to the same as your 09. Assume this is related to a ball mount for a bumper pull?

My off-road is at 26" to the top of the tube. 8" would probably work but I went with a 10" drop Weigh Safe in case I lift it.
