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.
On a gooseneck, the whole load rides on the neck, and a loose or out-of-spec sleeve on the front of the trailer is where slop, rattle, and hard shots through the frame start every time you hit a frost heave or grab the brakes. This weld-on outer tube sleeve is the socket that fixes that. It welds onto the front of a gooseneck trailer and gives your coupler stem a precision home to ride in, rated up to 40,000 lbs of gooseneck towing capacity. It is the same heavy-duty neck gooseneck trailer manufacturers often use, formed from 1/4" steel with precision tolerance to fit existing inner tube square gooseneck couplers. It comes in raw steel and is available three ways: 4" with a pinhole, 4.5" with a pin hole, or 4" for a top crank. Inner tube solid and air ride gooseneck stems and couplers ride inside it and are sold separately.
Key Highlights
- Welds onto the front of your gooseneck to become the socket your coupler rides in
- The same heavy-duty neck gooseneck trailer builders commonly spec from the factory
- Three fits so you match your coupler exactly: 4.5" OD sleeve for a 4" square gooseneck coupler with straight pinhole, 4.5" OD sleeve for a 4" square gooseneck coupler with Top Crank, or 5" OD sleeve for a 4.5" square gooseneck coupler with straight pin hole
- Formed from 1/4" steel so it takes shock loads without flexing
- Precision tolerance to slide tight over existing inner tube square gooseneck couplers, no slop
- 20" of sleeve height for plenty of weld surface and a firm grip on the stem
- Ships in raw steel, ready to weld and finish to match your trailer
- Four 3/4" set bolts with jam nuts lock the stem down and keep it from working loose

Cut to Fit, Right Down to the Hardware
Set bolts and pins take a beating and go missing over the years, and a loose fit is where slop and rattle begin. This sleeve and its four 3/4" set bolts are built to OEM spec, so the coupler stem seats tight and your Shocker gooseneck sets up the way it was engineered to instead of sloppy.
