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.
Pull a heavy work trailer across rutted fields, gravel lots, and washboard back roads, and a ball coupler fights you the whole way. It binds when the trailer twists, it chucks against the truck on hard stops, and it beats up your gear one mile at a time. A pintle setup is the heavy-duty answer. This is Shocker's 8-Ton Pintle Hook on a channel mount, sold without a ball so you can match it to the coupler your rig already runs. It carries a 16,000 lbs gross trailer weight rating, enough for the heaviest equipment and commercial trailers you will put behind a truck, and it handles up to 3,000 lbs of tongue weight. The hook and ring self-align as the trailer moves, so the connection stays solid over ground that would have a ball coupler binding and rattling. Tough black finish, built to work for a living. In stock in Canada and ships direct, so there is no border wait.
Why Go Pintle for Heavy Work
When you are hauling work trailers over rough, uneven ground, a pintle hook and ring earns its keep. It is the standard on farms, job sites, and municipal fleets for good reason. The hook and ring self-align as the load shifts, and they shrug off the flex and twist that make a ball coupler bind and wear out early. If your trailer spends its life on fields and torn-up ground instead of smooth pavement, this is the connection built for it.
