I suppose I could get a larger hitch bar and skip using the reducing sleeve, but I don't even know a local place to buy one. I would have to mail order and it probably weighs a bit more than what I have, so shipping won't be cheap.

Maybe Camping World has them in stock.
The limits we're talking about are in the hitch receiver, not the hitch bar for your WDH. Even Class V hitches come in 2" models, so why not just use the sleeve and the shank you have, and save the extra weight. As an aside, the Chevy towing guide seems to think you'll want to be using your WDH.
