California Residents: Prop 65 Warning
We have a 40 foot 2024 Elite horse trailer with Living Quarters and 2 box stalls. We haul with a 2022 Ford F350 King Ranch Dually. While the trailer hauls great when you get on the bumpy backroads or a bad stretch of interstate you’d feel the jarring. The Shocker Hitch has removed that and made the drive in those situations much improved. We are starting at 20 lbs pressure and find it to fit our needs but it’s great to be able to change that to the conditions and wight of the trailer. It was easy to install and is a high quality product!
This is our second shocker hitch. Put it on an elite 4 horse 10.6 short wall. Worth every penny. The long hauls are smooth and more enjoyable .
