Features
Smoother Safer Towing Every Mile with Air Ride Round Bar WD Hitch Kit: Quickly add air ride towing to your pickup & camper or trailer in minutes. Filters, dampens & absorbs road shock, tugs, jerks, bumps, bangs, and sways through the Shocker air ride suspension system, creating a smooth ride.
Directs the normal towing resistance between the pickup & trailer through the air ride system, which produces a much smoother ride & naturally reduces trailer sway by filtering and absorbing the changing tongue weight that occurs when towing on concrete highways, uneven & rough roads.
Adjustable for Rise or Drop, Fits 2-1/2" Receiver, Offers 12,000 lbs of GTW: Get 12,000 lbs gross trailer weight & 1,200 lbs tongue weight capacity. Plus 9" of Adjustment 5" rise to 4" drop. Works great on 3/4 & 1 ton pickups including GMC Sierra 2500, 3500, Chevy Silverado 2500, 3500, Ram 2500, 3500, Ford F250, F350, F450, F550 Super Duty pickup trucks.
Easily Adjust Air Pressure for Trailer Tow Weight, Maximum Conform & Overall Load Control: The air ride equalizer allows for better control of your pickup & trailer. Fine-tune & adjust the air pressure for the best ride comfort and load control on every trip. For heavier loads, increase the air pressure; for lighter loads reduce it.
A cushion, steel spring or torsion hitch is not adjustable for tow weight or tongue weight its either to soft or to hard. Reduces Stress, Breakage, Wear & Tear on Truck, Trailer, Cargo & Equipment: Our air ride equalizer for a WD hitch reduces wear & tear on the pickup truck, driveline, trailer and frame.
The shock absorbing and dampening design of an air ride tow hitch creates less stress on truck & trailer. Less stress means less wear & tear. It's a must have for for aluminum trailers that tend to crack over time from stress with traditional hard truck to trailer connection.
Designed to Fits Pickup Trucks Only & Vehicles with Leaf Springs: This is designed for pulling with a pickup truck and vehicles with leaf springs. It will Not work with SUV/CUVs with coil-over springs in the rear. This is perfect for towing campers, heavy-duty equipment trailers, race trailers, and toy haulers.
Easy to Install Round Bar Weight Distribution Hitch Levels Your Pickup Truck: Prevents truck from squatting & distributes the weight over the axles of your towing pickup & trailer for more stability & control. Round bar load bars use the trailer to lift the rear pickup suspension when your truck is squatting from the weight on the trailer.
More Comfort & Less Stress on Passengers & Animals: Passengers & animals experience a more comfortable ride with less stress. This design effectively absorbs the jerks, chucking, bucking, bouncing & damaging forces experienced when towing. This makes the ride smoother and less stressful inside the pickup & trailer.
Saves Money & Improves Fuel Mileage: By reducing wear, tear & breakage on both the trailer & cargo. The air equalizer absorbs the damaging forces experienced with a typical hard connection. This lowers the chances of breaking welds & doing damage to your equipment & cargo.
Customers report 1 to 2 miles per gallon because the pickup & trailer work together better with less friction, which reduces downshifting & improves performance.

It is also compatible with supporting 2 friction sway arms, which are sold separately. (Shocker Sway Bar Kit) Premium Textured Matte Black Powder Coat Finish: Constructed out of heavy-duty steel that is finished with a premium textured black powder-coat finish on the air equalizer & the XR hitch.
20+ Mount Attachment Options: The XR channel hitch, when not used with this air equalizer, also works well with all our Shocker receiver hitch ball mount attachments, which include Combo Ball, Drop, Raised, Sway Bar Tab Options, Pintle, Pintle with Ball, Drawbar, Clevis Pin, Shackle & More. How To Set The Air Pressure?
After you hook up WD bars, air the hitch until the truck side bump cushions are not compressed. If the trailer side bump cushions are compressed, you have too much air in the air ride system.
