California Residents: Prop 65 Warning
I have had this 20k air hitch on my truck for 2 years now. I pull dumptrailers daily and my camper often on trips it has absolutely blown me away how much everything rides. I wouldn’t go with any other company. I love this hitch so much I bought the gooseneck air hitch.
I had been looking at Shocker Hitches for quite a while and always wondered if they were worth the investment. I’ve towed a variety of utility and flatbed trailers over the years, but it wasn’t until we purchased a travel trailer that I really noticed how harsh and jarring my standard drop hitch was.
After only two trips with the camper using my old hitch, I decided to bite the bullet and order the Shocker Hitch. All I can say is, WOW! The difference was night and day.
The towing experience improved dramatically. The constant jolts and shock loads I was feeling through the truck and trailer were significantly reduced. No more white-knuckle driving through mountain roads, over bridges, or on rough stretches of highway. The annoying “wave” or bouncing effect after hitting dips, expansion joints, or uneven pavement is virtually gone.
Not only is the ride smoother, but towing feels more controlled and much less stressful overall. Looking back, this is a purchase I should have made years ago. If you’re towing a travel trailer, or really any trailer on a regular basis, I highly recommend giving a Shocker Hitch a try. It has completely changed my towing experience for the better.
Heavy duty hitch. Appears well built and makes for a noticeable difference in how smooth the towing experience is now.
Easy installation process, noticed a vast improvement with trailer surging the first time using it.
Excellent, takes out 90% of the bounce, pulling a long empty trailer
Works as described it definitely doesn’t jerk on the truck like a conventional receiver
This hitch is amazing, I can’t believe the ride is that much better.
I can’t believe the hitch made that big of a difference in the ride.
I have a shocker hitch for trailers on my 1/2 ton, I purchased the HD Air Hitch for heavier trailers on my HD pickup. The ride is so much smoother, I may want the lighter Air Ride hitch for 10-12k trailers.
WOW! What a difference! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a smoother ride while towing. I haul 8,000-10,000 regularly on a bumper pull and I couldn’t be happier with the SH-HD620-200. Definitely worth the money.
First off I have to say that the customer service department is excellent. They went above and beyond to resolve an issue I had when I received my hitch. Once I installed the hitch, I hooked up the trailer loaded up a piece of equipment and aired up the bag. Immediately I could tell a difference. Night and day. I highly recommend this hitch to anyone that does any towing on a regular basis.
Best hitch for comfort during towing! Second one I have purchased. First hitch 2 years old and no issues at all. Highly recommend. Worth the price.
It definitely softened the ride of our 34’ Winnebago Travel Trailer (about 9,500 lbs) that we tow behind our F350. I plan to purchase the pintle hitch to tow my tractor, tractor and trailer are about 15,000 lbs.
Levels up trailer nicely. Much better pulling experience. Softer ride.
Its a game changer it is a smooth smoother ride. There is no more bumping jerking all in all it’s just a very comfortable safe and secure tow
I regularly tow 6K-15K lb at least 3-4 days of the week, all year. I have a Shocker hitch on one truck but got one for the second truck recently b/c it really reduces the bumps and jarring (by about 50%) I experience on washboarded dirt roads. I’ll be getting the trailer Shocker soon once my dump trailer hitch fails, which it invariably will. I’ll probably be getting the gooseneck Shocker as well once I go down that rabbit hole. I highly recommend the Shocker!
Great Quality and it significantly reduces the towing motions of the trailer and hence a smooth ride for me. Awesome product! Thanks
I purchased the shocker hitch HD to eliminate the jerking motion as you come to stop. This hitch did just that. I have a PJ tilt deck trailer that I haul with most of the time. This hitch has made hauling much more comfortable on the harsh MN roads. I do like to run rock tamers when I haul. This is something I wish shocker hitch would have provided from the beginning. I did fabricate some brackets myself. Now the hitch is complete. Thanks shocker hitch for your outstanding work.
Works awesome takes away the harsh ride love it!
Super fast shipping and GREAT product! 10/10 would recommend!
I have used the hitch for about a week and noticed big difference in the ride of tow vehicle. Also, it can be adjusted if the trailer is empty or loaded.
Product is great! Wish they made one for Sway Control. Thanks, Bob!
I went with the hd air hitch and love it. I’m always pulling heavy trailers and this air hitch can simply be adjusted by adding air or letting air out to make the best ride possible. One of the bumper hitch trailers I tow is really heavy on the tongue and this hitch takes all the bucking and jerking out of this trailer.
These guys are very helpful and know what they are doing at shocker hitch. They shipped mine to me while I was at a Minnesota fair last year and I had it the very next day after ordering it and speaking with them over the phone. All my questions and concerns were answered.
Best hitch I’ve ever owned!!
I have brought and used shocker hitches for many years. Everyone of them (5 or 6 including a goose neck) are still in use and performing as new. I recently added the Heavy Duty version for a new F350 Super Duty and could not be more pleased. We regularly haul a fork lift to job sites and this required us to use a different hitch because the tongue weight was just to high for the standard hitch. The new hitch handled it with ease. I also can now have the adjustment in the ball height I needed to get the trailer level with the new higher trucks. Shocker always seems to be working on new products and Bob and the team are always helpful in explaining the new product capabilities.
Absolutely never haul a heavy hitch tow without one! This is my second one. It saves your trailer and vehicle from excessive movement, saves fuel and makes the tow safer.
I love my shocker hitch
Best hitch on the market! It does everything it says it will do. A very smooth ride.
I purchased the receiver hitch and I was amazed, I have a 22′ poontoon, dual wheel trailer with surge brakes. At 55 mph it would walk all over the road. With the shocker I traveled 70-75 on I 81 to Douglas lake and couldn’t tell the boat was behind me without looking in the mirror. Thanks, I know you say it may help with sway, well it did for me and I say great hitch.

It’s a refreshing change to purchase something and it exceeds your expectations. I used the Receiver Mount Shocker Hitch for the first time Friday when I moved my boat about 80 miles to the marina and I could not believe how much better it travels. You’ve got a great product and its well worth the money. Thanks.

We have a family farm business that requires us to pull many different trailers ranging from 12′ and just a few thousand pounds to 25+’ wide-load 14,000 pound+ loads. I have used many different types of hitches and load lever bars various attempts to ease the bounce and general rough rides associated with long, empty trailers. What opened our eyes to the Shocker hitches is about $6000 worth of damage to our RV trailer from pulling with a 1-ton truck and conventional weight distributing hitch. The rough ride destroyed the front frame of our Aerolite trailer (I would not recommend Aerolite trailers to anyone – turns out you can make a trailer too light!). I’m convinced this damage would not have occurred had I been using a Shocker hitch all along. After purchasing a unit (primarily for the RV), I began using it for all my farm towing needs. Eric and Bob were very helpful in supplying all the various adapters to pull all my trailers, and it has become an indispensable part of my farm! You will be amazed on how much the hitch improves the ride, and I can’t say enough about the quality, design and even the finish of the Shocker hitches. Please feel free to give my phone number out to prospective buyers it they would like to chat about my very positive experiences regarding your products and customer service!

I haul trailers from Indiana to Winnipeg 6 or 7 times a month. They range anywhere from 21 feet to 42 feet long and found that the Shocker Hitch can handle them all with just a slight adjustment of air. The hitch is an amazing unit and I would never go back to using a steel hitch. The difference it makes is hard to discribe untill you actually use one. I have found that with this hitch I can pull longer trailers without the use of equalizing bars by just adding air to the hitch.I have been using the hitch now for over two years and have found the ride and stability using it is truely amazing. I would reccomend this hitch to anyone pulling a trailer, once you have tried it, I don’t see you going back to a regular steel hitch.The interchangeable hitch applications are amazing just pull two pins and you can change the hitch application in seconds.One thing I have to say is the service they provide is fantastic. If you need something or have any questions they are there to help just pickup the phone or stop by like I did. They went over the hitch and explained how to use the hitch, not many companies I have ever delt with stop working and go one on one with a customer to go over their product.Oh, and by the way 8 or 9 of my friends also use the hitch and are totally happy with it, and they dont haul for a living, they use it for personnel use. Thanks again BOB and THE OTHER GUY .

In 2009 I purchased my 1st receiver hitch from ShockerHitch. I was executor of my Aunts Estate in Ft Worth Tx, and I live near Lubbock Tx, 6 hrs 1 way driving distance. I was pulling an enclosed 14 ft tandem trailer to haul estate “stuff” to various kinfolk. Needless to say the ride in the pickup was rough, when pulling the trailer with a regular ball hitch, to say the least. I purchased the Receiver Hitch, after seeing it advertised in Farm Show Magazine. My wife said, “You paid how much for a trailer hitch”. But after 1 hr of travel – pulling the trailer attached to the ShockerHitch – my tough critic became a believer, saying it was the best money I ever spent. She could do her NeedlePoint work, read, and relax without the constant banging, joshling, and rough riding caused by the trailer being pulled.
Christmas, 2010, I purchased 3 more receiver hitches for my 2 sons and 1 son in law. They already enjoyed the hitch, as they have borrowed mine when they had any serious, long hauling. To anyone who pulls a trailer and is tired of the constant banging, jarring ride, it will be money well spent to purchase a shockerhitch. Many things purchased today don’t work as advertised, this ShockerHitch works as good or better than its advertisement. It Works.

I purchased the Heavy duty receiver hitch to pull my 27′ RV and a 20′ trailer for work. This hitch has been great. Not only did it stop the shock in the road bumps it also eliminated the shock in the starting to roll and the stop of the truck. This was one feature i did not understand when i purchased the hitch. This has made our travel so enjoyable. Thank you very much for you design and customer service.
