    Shocker HD Air Hitch Ball Mount Installation Instructions

    The Shocker HD Air Hitch ball mount is easy to install.  It comes complete with easy-to-understand instructions along with everything you need.  You can download the installation instructions or view the video below.

    Shocker Air Installation: First you must compress the air bag. Do this by depressing the air valve and pushing down on air bag.
    Once the bag has been compressed, you can install the unit into the receiver tube. Next install hitch pin.

    Shocker HD Air Hitch Install Video

    To Set Air: Hook up trailer using properly selected ball adaptor and height adjustment in order to a level trailer when loaded. Next, inflate the air bag. As air pressure increases, the unit will rotate lifting the hitch point. Install enough air to slightly compress top bushing or until bump stop clearance is approximately 1/8″.

    Shocker HD Air Hitch PSI Air Pressure Setting Guide Video

    Additional Set Up Notes:

    • When towing heavy trailers or trailers with high wind resistance it may be necessary to increase air pressure in the Shocker.
    • Spacer block included and may be required when using 2″ shank (see install manual below)
    • It is highly recommended that the hitch ball be greased to reduce wear and improve shocker action.
    • DO NOT TIGHTEN THE TOP BOLT, IT IS A LIMITER STOP ONLY.

    Maximum Air Pressure: Do not exceed 100 psi in the air bag, as it may damage the air bag.

      Q Is the 20k HD hitches safe for GMC’s PRO tailgate to fold down into a step, or will it hit?

      Our Shocker Hitch frames are too tall for the step section of the multi-pro tailgate and will make contact.

      Unfortunately, you may need to modify that section of your hitch for our airbag to slide underneath the receiver. You could also check out our Shocker 20K Impact Max with the link here: https://shockerhitch.com/product/impact-max/

    12. I have a 15860 Curt hitch on a 2019 Silverado 3500hd drw. I have seen some issues with safety chains holes being partially covered by the airbag. Will this be a concern for me ?

      We have not had any issues with safety chains being compatible with our hitches at all. Sometimes the safety chains can come a little close to the airbag but it would not affect the hitch at all. 

    14. I have a 2020 Silverado truck with a 2-1/2 receiver and tow a 30 ft. 7500 pound trailer with a 400 pound tongue weight. What Shocker air hitch with the 2-5/16" & 2" ball do you recommend?

      With the trailer that you are towing, you are able to use either our 12k air hitch or our HD 20k. Both of them are offered with a combo ball mount that offers 1/2" to 4-1/2" of drop. Most people like going with the HD due to the versatility of being able to use it on light trailers as well by using less air. So either hitch will work great for you its just a matter of what capacity you would like to go with.

      Would you be able to send a few pictures of the receiver on your Yukon to info@shockerhitch.com. We can take a look and see if our hitch is compatible with your model. 

    18. Can I add my Rock Tamer Mud flap system to the back of shocker hitch HD 20K
    19. 0 votes
      Q Can I add my Rock Tamer Mud flap system to the back of shocker hitch HD 20K
      A Hello, With the Rock Tamer style that slide on the shank of the hitch can cause binding as it can get pinched between the air bag and bottom of the receiver. We do offer our Quick Clip under bumper tow flaps that work will all of our bumper hitches. A link for the Quick Clips is below. If you have any other questions feel free to contact us at 701-707-2666. Thanks https://shockerhitch.com/product/under-bumper-tow-mud-flaps/
