Stop destroying your trailer and cargo.
Every bump, pothole, and expansion joint sends a violent jolt through your trailer frame, damaging cargo and wearing out your truck. Shocker Air Ride Hitches absorb that punishment at the coupling, before it reaches your trailer.
You feel it the second a semi blows past or a gust catches the broadside of your trailer: that slow, stomach-dropping wag behind you that makes your hands tighten on the wheel. Trailer sway comes from wind, passing traffic, and rough, uneven roads, and it hits campers, cargo haulers, and small and large trailers alike. This Shocker Hitch friction sway arm and ball kit clamps down on that wag before it can build. It is one of the most affordable ways to settle a trailer that wanders, and it works with the many Shocker Hitch ball mounts built to take a sway arm.
