Title says 3" shank, description says 2.5" shank. Which is it?

Very few trucks come with a 3 inch receiver to accept a 3 inch shank. I think that is a typo. My 2500HD has a 2.5 inch receiver.

How do I get a replacement friction cone for this hitch? IO am 16 months in and it is severely worn out.

Go to Andersons website and contact their customer service. I have not needed any support yet, but I have read a few reviews in which they supplied customers a different material which lasts longer if you are pulling a lot of weight.

does the ball have the collar around it or is this one the old style?

I purchased mine off Amazon a while ago, and it was the old style. I had some problems with it, and contacted Andersen and they sent me a new one right away. I’m not sure which style you’ll get if you order, but I do know Andersen’s support is top notch.

Can I buy a 2” ball too and have the 2”5/16 and the 2” use the same shank?

Hello. Yes, they would be interchangeable. The 2" ball will fit in the head assembly just fine. Please let us know if you have any additional questions. HitchRite
