California Residents: Prop 65 Warning
Buy it . Now I can say I went up to a 3/4 ton truck and im sure that has helped as well in my towing experience with my camper. But, I’ve towed a flat bead trailer and my 8000lb camper and I didn’t feel the trailers bounce at all with this hitch. I wish I would have purchased from ShockerHitch, instead of wasting my money at the over priced dealer to buy an equalizer brand sway hitch. I’ll be honest, I likely didn’t even need a bigger truck, that’s how well this hitch has performed.
Now on to customer service. They operate the way you would expect and then some. They answered every question that I asked, and I asked a lot of questions. I even knew that I had a 3 inch receiver on my truck when I made the purchase and before they shipped it, the same day I ordered two hours later, customer service called me to verify that my request was accurate because they just wanted to make sure. During that call I had a couple more questions since I had them on the phone and she spent as much time as I needed. The hitch was at my house two days later after ordering and I wish other companies would operate the way this company does. BEST HITCH ON THE MARKET. If I ever go with a fifth wheel trailer, you better believe I will be buying their fifth wheel shocker hitch without a doubt
Made my towing experience smooth, enjoyable, and less stressful. I have little experience towing a travel trailer and the Shocker Hitch has helped tremendously.
Greatest Hitch Made
Have only taken it out on a test ride but performance is way better then expected. Build quality is outstanding.
30 foot travel trailer with 2021 Chevy Silverado Custom Trail Boss 1500 2 1/2 hr ride was really nice .
Looks to be an excellent product has not been field tested yes
Night and day difference towing my 24′ enclosed trailer. My trailer had a terrible sway issue with standard hitch, I installed/tested this shocker setup in sustained 25+ mph winds, and in my opinion it took out atleast 90% of the sway. Would definitely recommend!
Love my hitch. I use it everyday!!
This is the best hitch I have used. No more bouncing on the back of the truck. Nice and smooth thanks
