I bought a new truck and I need to get a new shank for my WDH. Are any shanks compatible with Eaz Lift of am I limited to just Eaz Lift shanks?

You are good to go. Shanks are pretty universal.

I have a Husky WD shank with my Draw-Tite hitch head.

Thanks!

So the hole spacing should be 1.25" on center on all?

I have talked to Reese and Husky about this and they both said that for the most part, WD shank holes are built on a somewhat industrial standard.

My experience says yes, I have two shanks, One extended drop shank from Reese and one standard Husky shank, they are both drilled the same. I haven't measured it but I can tomorrow.

Thanks!

Thanks, looks like I have options then. Does the length of the receiver mean much other then distance between truck and trailer?

The one that seems to work out has a 9" length and the one I have has a 10" length.
