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 hook up in low light, give the trailer a tug, and you're still not fully sure the ball is captured. A worn or sloppy gooseneck coupler leaves you guessing, and guessing is the last thing you want with a loaded trailer behind you. This is the Shift Lock Gooseneck Coupler head assembly, built to take that doubt off your mind. It fits a 2-5/16" gooseneck ball, and the patented Shift Lock® dual-latching design grabs the ball on both sides, so a quick look confirms the connection the moment it's fully engaged and locked. Rated at 30,000 lbs, the cast steel body is heavy-duty enough for the biggest gooseneck loads you'll pull, and it welds straight onto square or round gooseneck stems. It arrives complete with the Shift Lock handle, lever, U-pin, safety pin and clip, finished in raw steel and ready to weld. In stock in Canada and ships direct, so there's no border wait to get your trailer back on the road.
