This is the picture of the hitch that goes in the truck with the ball for the weight distribution hitch for the Argosy. The other picture is the hitch on the F150 that needs to be lowered 4". Thanks for any suggestions.

As previously noted the hitch on your 150 stays put.
It's the assembly I showed in post #20 that gets lowered.

Both items that you need are available from Reese. I would contact your local supplier for suggestions and availability.

Cloudspllitter is correct as reese was one of the first to reconize this prob. when A.S in 1967 raised ball ht. to 21 in. from 18 in. bad move now is back at 18 in. as I see pic stinger is welded in head, time to buy new adj. head & new stinger will bolt in & give proper hts.
