California Residents: Prop 65 Warning
This hitch is worth every penny. I tow a 25k pintle hitch and it abused me like a drunk step dad before buying this hitch. Now it’s like taking a gentle lover for an evening stroll. Im throughly impressed with this thing. I highly recommend it.
I have a 30 foot pintle hitch equipment trailer, and would beat the tar out of me both loaded and empty. This hitch is a true game changer It’s awesome to buy a product that works as advertised, especially when they cost what they do, but this was money well spent.
