The safety red powder-coated frame has 8 adjustment holes and is rated for 14,000 lbs GTW and 1,400 lbs tongue weight; always follow the lowest applicable component or vehicle rating. The air ride system sits under the receiver tube, with 10-1/2 inches from the receiver hitch pin to the ball center. Designed for pickups, vans, RVs, and select SUVs with the receiver tube underneath the bumper.
Manufactured by Shocker Hitch® USA in Jamestown, ND.
Pick your receiver hitch size and choose from over 20+ Shocker Hitch ball mount attachment options, including combo ball, drop mount, raised, clevis, drawbar, pintle hitch, pintle with a ball combo, along with mounts with sway bar mounting tab options.
The 14K Air Receiver hitch routes towing forces through its air spring and pivoting assembly, cushioning the connection between your tow vehicle and trailer. As tongue loads change over uneven pavement, the air spring absorbs movement while the dual urethane bump cushions provide additional cushioning on rough roads. Adjusting air pressure for your loaded trailer helps the system work properly as your towing load changes.

No, the HD hitch allows for up to 20K so if you are towing a lighter weight you would just reduce the air pressure in the air bag. The 20K is better overall than the 14K because it gives you more capability.

This has a very solid frame but you can take the bump cushions and airbag off with a few nuts and bolts so yes you could powdercoat it.

If you have equalizer bars and want to keep your weight distribution you would want our Shocker Air Equalizer - https://shockerhitch.com/product/air-equalizer/ If you are just looking for sway control, then our Air Receiver hitch will work great.

This hitch is not designed to take the sag out from a heavy load. It is designed to absorb road shock and help with jerking between the truck and trailer. If you have issues with sagging and use a weight distribution hitch we do offer the Air Equalizer that bolts directly to pre existing W-D hitches. That can be found here https://shockerhitch.com/product/air-equalizer/

The Shocker Hitch should work with the service body. There needs to be adequate clearance under the receiver to have the hitch slide in completely. If you have any more questions feel free to contact us at 701-707-2666.

Yes the air bag will need to be deflated to take it on and off the vehicle. The air bag puts pressure on the bottom the receiver tube making it extremely difficult to be able to take it on and off.

We offer a variety of hitches that would work with your vehicle. The two that would work the best would be the Impact Cushion Hitch and the Shocker Air Hitch. Both of these hitches will provide a smoother safer ride. The Impact Cushion offers a simple design without the air spring but still alleviates the jerking and jarring. Here is a link to our Cushion Hitches. https://shockerhitch.com/product-category/receiver-hitches/cushioned-ball-mounts/ With the second option being the Air Hitch which will give you even more filtration of the bumps, jarring and jerking. The air spring is adjustable to your trailer and load by adding or letting out air through the valve. With the ability to adjust the air pressure you are able to nearly eliminate all of the unwanted surging.

Adding air should be the last step in setting your Shocker Hitch up, after loading your trailer. You will want to make sure to remove any excess air when the hitch isn't in use to prevent wear and tear on the hitch itself.

For your setup, we would recommend our 12K Air Bumper Hitch as this is rated for 12,000 lbs GTW and 1,200 lbs TW. This hitch will help absorb that bouncing and tugging feeling that you feel down the road, check out our Shocker Air Bumper Hitch 101 video for more details.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS
Great hitch. Works well with our 2026 Classic 28RB Airstream and 2026 Silverado 2500 HD.
Works really well. A noticeable improvement in ride quality and a reduction in porpoising.
We used our Shocker Hitch on a trip to Yuma, AZ on the I8. We did notice a lot less bouncing up and down when we went over the expansion joints on the bridges. Much smoother ride then the rigid hitch we used to more the TT to AZ a week before.
Used the hitch for the first time what a difference. I would buy another one in heart beat.
I'm building a retirement property over 400 miles from where I live. I use a 10K 18' tilt trailer to haul materials and personal property there. I bought this hitch because of the roughness of the hard connection between my truck and trailer. I just completed a round trip last week and the difference is amazing - so much better. I am also very pleased with the quality and design of the product!
Great quality, pins and hardware aren't junk. Was a little skeptical but the warranty was there so went for it. Got here quick, got it out assembled it, watched the video about airing it up. Once attached took my trailer for a ride. Huge difference. no clattering or noise. The front just floats over bumps and such with no racket. Loaded a tractor on the trailer, aired the hitch up, w over 8000 lbs. w backhoe, bucket and weight of air tow trailer. Pulled nice weight was off but no issue with the hitch. Its one of those deals, buy once and cry once.... It will surely serve well and prob outlive me. Zero remorse. Worth it? Absolutely.
This hitch worlks really well at eliminating a lot of the tug and pull feel and bronc riding down the way. Bigger bumps are better than with traditional hitches but you notice a difference. Low speeds I felt like it was still a little better than traditional hitches , but I noticed bounce on certain low spots. Setup is f250 with 23 ft airstream. Definitely recommend this hitch. I chose this hitch because I didn't want to mess with all the contraptions associated with weight distribution hitches, but wanted something to isolate the trailer bounce from my rig and this is it.
I never right reviews but this one deserves a big praise. I bought this hitch and immediately drove 2000 miles with an empty trailer. It makes all the difference in the world .. while we encounterd the whole rough roads watching the tralier bounce in the mirror, we could feel hardly anything. Best purchase ever made .
Very heavy unit, I used ut to pick up a rig about 20 miles away from our shop, I noticed right away no banging on bridge transitions. Feels smoother, I'll be bringing this rig 1400 miles in one more day and will see how it performs. I suggest getting the pump or a pump on hand as the air will need to he adjusted empty verse loaded. So far I love it! My chains rub the cage of the shocker but doesn't interfere with performance. I feel.its better than a hard commection for sure. I'll know better after my long haul
Smooth ride
All I can say is shocker hitches are amazing it has made towing my 22ft equipment trailer pull way smoother I recommend a shocker hitch it's worth the money
This hitch is a game changer. Use on a HEAVY (wide/tall) 24' Toy Hauler with living quarters and a SRW F350. The tongue weigh on this trailer was an issue. This hitch solved that problem. I have never had a trailer pull/track behind a truck as well as it does with this hitch. I was skeptical - especially for the price. I should have bought one 20 years ago. This hitch ia the real-deal and a game-changer for heavy pull trailers.
This hitch is great the heavier the trailer the more you can tell it is removing the ruff tugging and bouncing.
Great hitch, first time towig and had no problems at all with swaying our having a bumpy experience
Amazing! Just as advertised and worth every cent.
Works great and it is a quality product worth its cost!
Absolutely incredible hitch!! Never thought towing could be so smooth!
Works Great! I was looking for a way to pull my Aluma 8220H trailer without it beating me up when it's empty. This hitch with 20 lbs of air has made this trailer tolerable to pull empty.
Cons: It's heavy and a little cumbersome to install/remove. Pros: It's heavy duty and well built . Extremely effective at mitigating road shock being transmitted from trailer to pulling vehicle.
I was quite apprehensive about spending that much money for a hitch but am glad I did. I towed a 8000 lb cargo trailer for 1500 miles on our trip home from Tx, and honestly it was so smooth you forget your towing.
Made a big difference in truck ride and in the trailer. Went on some rough roads in California, didn't break anything. Just need 4" more for my tail gate to clear the trailer tongue jack.
I ordered this hitch a while ago. I was hesitant on the price but end the end I took the plunge. This turned out to be one of the best decisions I have ever made. If I could give this hitch 50 stars I would. Here is my story. I am a mobile technician. I have a Ram 2500 diesel and pull a 8.5' x 30' trailer every day, 6 days a week. Over the scales I am 23,000 pounds. This trailer never comes unhooked from my truck - EVER. I drive about 150-300 miles a day. On a Tuesday Morning as I was headed to work down the interstate I heard a "tink, tink tink" sound. I thought nothing of it. Figured I picked up something on the road and spat it out. Went all day and went home with no issues. Wednesday to work and back as normal. Thursday and Friday same thing. That Saturday I was heading to Ohio for family so backed up the trailer in its very occasional home and unhooked. I went to remove the hitch from my truck and that's when I saw it. My hitch pin was GONE! For 4 days I pulled that trailer with no hitch pin and all that kept that massive trailer on my truck was the pressure from the airbag. For FOUR DAYS, almost 750 miles. Yes I had my chains on, but let's be honest, 8.5 x 30' trailer that weighs 15,000 pounds comes loose, It is going to take my truck wherever it wants to and there would be nothing I could do about it but hang on for the ride. Even with the break-away brake it would have gone quite a distance. I would just like to say in all seriousness that this hitch saved mine and who knows how many other lives. I will never buy any other hitch than a SHOCKER HITCH. Yes I upgraded to a beefier locking hitch pin, and check it daily. Thank you SHOCKER HITCH for designing the best hitch the U.S. has ever seen. This thing goes above and beyond and is un-doubtfully the BEST. THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
This hitch is really great! I tow a 5,000# boat and 9,000# RV trailer and it 100% makes the pull so much smoother. Road expansion joints, potholes so much smoother. On the other end braking feels straight and no banging. Very happy with this purchase and thoroughly recommend!
I work out of a cargo trailer, and pull one most every day of the week. Shocker hitch dampens the jerking (chucking) back and forth a lot. It is easier on the truck, and trailer having the air bag in between the two. The shocker hitch I just purchased is my second one. The first one was still good. I planned on moving it to the 2022 truck. Problem is; It was seized in the receiver of the 2016 truck. So I just bought a new one. It works very well. Buy one, you will be happy.
Perfect hitch for multiple trailers with my fiberglass boat to the large 18 ft loaded enclosed trailer! You can actually notice the difference running these hitches vs straight switches. Awesome product, excellent customer service helped me pick the right hitch for me and very fast delivery! Very happy customer here!
Just awesome
Great product. A wonderful improvement in ride quality. I should have bought it sooner!
Well.made product. Haven't tri3d with a heavy load yet. Have towed a 26 ft bay boat. Was hoping it would take more of the vounce out over these bumpy roads. And it may o55 to new orleans is a wavey road . And the truck bounces and the boat bounces. I'm sure it absorbing some of it but was hoping for more but may be due to the weight and motor being on the back of the trailer causing the whip. Lobe the product and design. Again very well made.
Works great
I purchased the shocker hitch with the drop and man I cannot sign their praises enough. I towed a 8,000lb travel trailer shortly and it was absolutely a night and day difference vs a regular hitch. It was easy to adjust the psi and my 3/4 ton has never rode better hauling a trailer. I really am floored that more people who haul regularly have never seen or used one.
Hello, I purchased my Shocker Air Hich and anti sway bars about 2 weeks ago for a 1500 mile trip I would be making from Florida to Wisconsin. I was planning to bringing my 12 year old son on the trip and was looking to plan for a safe and successful trip. But I had a big concern about the sway and tongue weight on my lifted F150. I would be hauling an 18' enclosed trailer carrying a car and tools. I spoke to a rep at SAH and she assured me my concern would be addressed with the Shocker Air Hitch and anti sway bars. So with only a few days before I was scheduled to leave I ordered a them up and she had it shipped over right away. Immediately after Installation I attached the trailer for a test drive I felt much more at ease. I made the trip in 2 days, and definitely put the SAH system through a more than "thorough test." With Kentucky being the biggest I must say they have the biggest potholes I have ever encountered. But not once did I ever feel out of control. If you want to save the life of your truck and hitch get yourself a Shocker Air Hitch. Thank you SAH for a great product. Ryan Barreras
Excellent, well-built product! Definitely less abuse on the trailer, truck, drivetrain, and our bodies! Helps a lot on our nasty WI winter roads! It's a very good investment.
So for good as advertised. Only pulled my bass boat once and noticed the difference. Couldn't feel the boat behind me. The only problem I noticed on my Toyota Tundra is with a load in the bed it caused a sagging in the rear of the truck. Considering air bags.
The shocker hitch works great, I just towed my trailer 1800 miles no problems, hardly knew the trailer was there.
The build quality on Shocker products is amazing. They look really nice and work great. I can tell the difference going over bumps with this hitch compared to my previous solid hitches.
I have had the shocker hitch hd for 6 or 7 years I drive entertainment busses hauling musicians around the country and canada I've pull trailers almost everyday of the year through some of the harshest environments at speeds of 65 to 75 for 8 to 10 hrs a day and I will not pull a trailer without my shocker hitch for my prevost bus! Great product the owners son built me one just for my prevost at their facility one morning my hitch was rated at 1600lb tongue weight and 16000lbs trailer weight. I use this in commercial applications you can not beat this hitch.
I have been using my shocker hitch since 2005 to tow our track cars, and multi trailers from a 16' Featherlite to a 24' Wellscargo. I've been very happy with the product.
The shocker hitch is amazing. Use it for long haul deliveries on 3/4 ton WT with 14,000# flatbed deck-over material handler. Material stays much more secure during transport and ride is much much smoother. I could only think this saves the powertrain on the truck minimizing the jolting of an empty trailer, didn't see any data in regards to this but could only help for sure. My only complaint is the safety chain bracket on the receiver of truck front leg is long, the hitch rides on the edge of this even with the spacer inserted; it's not quite right but was desperate for results so I use it as is. I also purchased the trailer shocker too, the combination of the 2 makes a world of difference! I reside in Illinois and make many trips through Iowa and Indiana, 3 of the worst states for road conditions, I had to do something and this works Awesome!
Amazing product... changes how I feel about towing... and improves the miserable conditions on interstate highways
I just did my first trip with my Shocker hitch. I was pulling a 14' 3000 lb steel dump trailer. Of my large trailer s .. (27' covered 2600 lb and 2800 lb 28' flatbed, the dump is the worst in terms of jerking my vehicle around. The ride was generally smooth. The bouncing over bad roads was very manageable compared to without it. My back wasn't sore after a 2 hr ride either which told me ALL I needed to know! IMPRESSIVE Thank you Shocker!!
Pros: For what the hitch is designed for, it does a very good job at smoothing the ride. It takes the harsh knocks from the trailer out. ( That is why I purchased it and it does that well.) It is very well constructed. Cons: It is cumbersome to install into the hitch with one person. I have to push down on the air bladder while sliding in the receiver. (I'm sure it will get easier with use.) It would be great if the hitch came with lockable pins, as it is too expensive to leave exposed to admirers without being secured. I have a lock in the receiver, but the ball also needs to be locked or the hitch needs to be removed when not using. A portable air compressor is needed, as every load needs a little different inflation. Overall, I would definitely recommend this product.
Easy to use. Gives the vehicle an excellent ride, especially on bumpy roads.
The absolute best thing since sliced bread! We haul a 24 ft Deck over bumper pull and this hitch makes it seem like the trailer is not even there.
Amazing product, works better than expected. I bought the one for a 2.5" receiver and paired it with a receiver anti-rattle clamp so it can't bounce around in the receiver which makes for a very quiet, smooth ride. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is because I would really like to see this work with at least one brand of towing mud flaps or make your own. I mainly pull large boats or really nice enclosed trailers that I don't want chipped up. I ended up buying Rockstar full width mud flaps and made my own mounting brackets so it would clear the hitch. All in all, best hitch on the market.
I purchased the Shocker Air Receiver Hitch (2.5" receiver / 16,000 lb. / 4 to 7.5" drop with 2 5/16" ball / Sway control) to use with my new race car trailer. We picked up the trailer in Wynnewood, OK and towed it back to Chattanooga, TN (868 miles one way). The highway (I-40) between OK and TN are as you can imagine in horrendous shape for long stretches. I've towed trailers all over and can tell you without hesitation I SHOULD HAVE PURCHASED THIS HITCH YEARS AGO. The difference it makes in ride comfort and reduced wear and tear on by truck cannot be overstated. I've tried other "high-end" hitches before and none come close. I you don't have one of these you're missing out and causing undue wear and tear on your drive train. Highly recommended. Brian Chattanooga, TN
I was debating on whether to go with the Shocker Hitch or the Gen-Y Torision Flex hitch. I'm so glad I chose the Shocker because you're able to adjust the air pressure according to the tongue weight to gain the maximum results. In my case, the tongue weight varies all the time; some days it'll be 700 pounds, on other days it'll be closer to 1,600 pounds (I have a Weigh Safe hitch that I utilize to dial in the tongue weight). Most people would assume the Shocker will only work well with a decent amount of tongue weight on it; I can attest to the fact that it works really well even when the trailer is empty. I pull an open deck car hauler quite frequently and it has a tendency to really give everything a good shake when it's empty. While driving over bumps and bad roads, I could clearly see the trailer going up and down (in the Duramax tow mirrors) on it's own because of the Shocker; I didn't feel the bucking and jarring of the trailer. I live out in California and we've got some serious road "transitions" to counteract the negative effects of earthquakes. Before I had this hitch, the truck would go over that "transition", then afterwards there would be this jarring effect once the trailer would cross over. Now, the trailer just glides over as if ain't back there. I recently did a roundtrip from California to Texas and back, and all I can say is the ride was smooth both loaded and empty (I adjusted the air pressure as needed); trailer was nonexistent. I really should invest in some suspension upgrades for the truck though because the 3/4 and 1 ton trucks are no joke when it comes to having stiff suspensions which you can get tired/annoyed of fairly quick. On a side note, I rode in a 1/2 ton after the longest time and I was so jealous of the ride. Mind you, this 1/2 ton was stock and rode super smooth. I would assume the ride of a 1/2 ton towing with a Shocker Hitch would be serene. In short, it feels as though the trailer isn't there. Since the Shocker "absorbs" the trailer, I just feel the truck; if I were to do some suspension upgrades on the truck (for example, better shocks), that 3/4 ton ride would feel even better. All in all, I would highly recommend investing in the Shocker Air Receiver Hitch. If you've got a heavy duty truck, I'd go with the 16K rated version because you never know when you might need that extra capacity. If you're concerned about the 16K version being overkill and not having the same effect on a lighter trailer, rest assured because both the 12K and 16K hitches provide the same amount of "cushion"; the 16K version is able to handle/support more weight. This was confirmed by the representatives over at Shocker Hitch who are second to none when it comes to customer service. For me, the extra cost to purchase the 16K version was completely worth it simply because I have enough leeway between various weights.
I bought this hitch because I hauled some hay in Colorado and the roads were so bad I thought I was going to bust my receiver and the tongue on my trailer. As soon as I got the hitch I loaded up my trailer with my tractor and drove down the roughest road I could find next to my house and the results were amazing. I had driven down this road before with the same load about 5 mph and the trailer was throwing the pickup all over, but that is not the case anymore. I drove down the road at 35 mph and I couldn't tell the trailer was behind me. There is complete separation of shock from the pickup and trailer and it makes the ride almost unbelievably comfortable. I highly recommend the shocker hitch to anyone that pulls a trailer.
Recently purchased one of these for towing a two horse bumper pull with my Silverado 1500. I have PTSD from a severe car accident and previously had a lot of anxiety towing, exacerbated by the bumps and clunks that come with pulling a trailer. The hitch made my ride so much smoother and more comfortable, I was amazed by the difference. It eased a lot of the stress that I had about hitching up. I'm now EXCITED about hauling places!! Thank you so much for the FANTASTIC product!
Love the hitch. We pull everything from 16ft to 32ft tri-axle enclosed trailers. Huge difference in how it pulls and rides.
It's a great addition lots smoother ride
What a welcomed relief for towing my equipment trailer empty especially. Having a tilt trailer to move my equipment from job to job, the axles need to be positioned forward of the tilt point on the deck and inevitably causes trailer slap when empty. This hitch takes all of that unnecessary bucking out of the ride with a simple air adjustment. Great product that will save your towing vehicle too!! Get one today, it's well worth it.
Works great, as soon as it arrived we left with our boat, Atlanta to Daytona and back 1000 miles of Flawless towing , Very Smooth as Expected. Thanks Team Shocker! We make the trip to Florida over 40 times a year . A lot of people ask about the Shocker at the ramp . Please send a pair of stickers for my truck and boat. All the best Daniel Ferguson
This is a fantastic hitch. I have use this for pulling both large and smaller trailers, It works fantastic. I would highly recommend the use of this hitch if you pull trailers
Excellent product very well built after installing I hooked up my camper and tried it out a big difference with the bumps and the ride was much better. I'm happy and would recommend it .
Best hitch I've ever had. Take the trailer surge away. Money well spent.
I haven't gotten it out of the box yet, but I know that it will be everything that I have hoped for. Will send an e-mail after having used it once or twice. Really looking forward to less bouncy-bouncy.
Amazing product. Took out all of the bumps and jerking that I feel while towing my rough North Dakota roads.
The ShockerHitch was recommended by a friend. The camper dealer I bought my RV from had never heard of it, but when they saw it and they were very impressed. My first trip included travelling over a winding mountain pass. The hitch made the trip very smooth and easy. Instead of jarring over bumps it was a smooth nudging sensation. Glad I bought it. Heading out for a long trip soon, will report back if any updates on performance.
The best hitch I have ever used. For years I has the B&W turn over receiver hitch, and sorry I did not covert sooner to the Shocker Hitch.
Our towing vehicle is a 2010 Dodge Ram 2500 (Diesel) and our camper is a 25' travel trailer with a dry weight of about 4200lbs. I did notice a significant improvement but it did not completely eliminate the jerkiness of the ride even with multiple adjustments. I wish there was a 'scale' or a way to way to determine the amount of compression. Also, it seems like the metal retaining the bumper material is very close and could be limiting the amount of absorption. Some design modifications would really help make this a perfect towing hitch.
I've only had my Shocker Air Receiver Hitch (2"/12,000lb) for about 2 weeks now, but it is amazing! This is the nicest hitch I've owned in my 42 years! I towed a 9,000 lb cargo trailer 1,089 miles with this on my 2016 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali, and the ride was smooth and quiet the whole way. Years ago when I towed a trailer cross country with a standard drop hitch, the ride was rough and sketchy the whole way. Thank you, Shocker Hitch, for helping to make my trip a comfortable and smooth one.
GAME CHANGER - no more tugging and no more pushing. I absolutely love my new hitch. When I look in my rearview mirror, my boat T-top is no longer moving and shaking. The difference that I see with save TONS of wear and tear on my boat, trailer and my NECK.
This is the second shocker hitch I have purchased and the second one is even better than the first. Chrome plating of pins and the combo hitch are a welcome to avoid rust. Once you pull a trailer with this hitch you will never go back to the old system
So far so good. I have it on my 2020 F350 DRW. Matched up perfectly with the stock 2 1/2 receiver hitch. Pulled a 16foot trailer with a car on it. SMOOTH!
We recently purchased our second Shocker a hitch. We first purchased in 2014, this hitch has been nothing short of exceptional. Our recent and second purchase was due to an upgrading a trailer size and heavy capacity. Very pleased with the quality of both units and well worth the cost for the improved ride and reduced wear on our truck. CS has been more than helpful in both purchases and lightning quick shipping.
My camper has never towed so nicely. Huge improvement with this bumper air hitch. You can't feel the camper and our stuff inside isn't all over the floor anymore. Very smooth.
Excellent quality hitch wish I had one years ago. Will continue to have my business. If you want something that is built to last this is the product for you.
So glad we got this air ball mount for our 2020 silverado. It pulls our race trailer so so nice. Wish I would have found this years ago. Way easier on my back. Especially when travelling a long distance.
I've purchased two hitches from Shockerhitch, the Shocker Air Receiver hitch with a 2-1/2" receiver and it was the BEST thing I ever did for pulling a trailer [pull behind travel trailer]. You notice the difference right away and immediately realize that it was money very well spent. For another truck, an occasional puller [so I pull the hitch out when not using], I purchased a Shocker XR drop ball mount hitch. Both are solidly built, both have excellent craftsmanship.
