California Residents: Prop 65 Warning
This thing is awesome!!! I bought for my 28ft PJ tilt T9. hardly know trailer is back there with or without a load. Rides so smooth. The wife was with me and she forgot the trailer was back there lol!
I drive some of the worst highways in the country towing a 40 ft. Hauling oilfield equipment and this is a game changer.
I couldn’t believe the difference in the ride with the shocker hitch installed. I hated pulling my 24 foot flatbed, before. The trailer jerked and pounded my truck, constantly. With the new hitch, I could barely feel the trailer was there. Great product, good people to deal with, well worth the money.
After hearing about the shocker I thought it was just another sale pitch, so I figured I’ve wasted money before on all kind of things so maybe just maybe I might get this one right. And “Bingo” this was money well spent. Thank you shocker for not wasting my money….
At this time all I have done with my new shocker hitch is test my 32′ goose-neck trailer with no load on it other than the trailer itself. I set the air bag at 15 lbs , driving with just the trailer there is a noticeably smoother ride. Before the shocker hitch this particular trailer , empty ,would jerk me around to the point where I dreaded using it. Looking forward to testing it out with a full load , when I do , I’ll get back with complete review.
Being a hot shot trucker, this gooseneck air hitch really makings towing big loads easier. Smooths out the truck and trailer.
A great addition to my PJ trailer. An awesome product to take the jerk out of Your pickup and it feels like You don’t have a 32 foot trailer loaded behind You.
I recommend it for anyone who has a trailer and hauls heavy loads.
Being a hotshot trucker, this is one of the best upgrade I have added to the operation. Definitely would recommend it to anyone that tows much.
