California Residents: Prop 65 Warning
Excellent hitch. When I towed my 8000 lbs man lift with straight metal pintle hook – it felt like someone was smashing the frame of a truck with a sledgehammer, and was extremely jerky. With this air hitch there is no more sledgehammer on the frame and it is a lot less jerky when towing. Huge improvement. I definitely recommend this hitch for smoother and safer towing.
I really like it,.delivery was pretty fast and the product was amazing definably will buy again on shocker hitch
Thank-you. Easy to use and, saved the shock from going through the driveline and frame.
