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.
Haul the heaviest load a one-ton truck can legally pull and you feel every frost heave and every hard stop come straight up through the receiver into the truck, the trailer, and whatever's riding behind you. The Shocker HD Air Hitch is the 20K red-finish flagship of the Shocker bumper-pull line, built to soak up that punishment. Sized for F-350, RAM 3500, and dual-rear-wheel one-ton trucks (class V/VI receivers) with a 3-inch receiver, this HD Air Hitch and Raised Ball Mount with a 2-5/16-inch ball and sway bar tabs hauls up to 20,000 lbs GTW and up to 2,000 lbs of tongue weight on a heavier-wall version of Shocker's signature 8-hole chassis with an upgraded HD-rated airbag. Built for a one-ton truck pulling the heaviest legal bumper-pull loads.

How Shocker HD Air Ride Smooths the Ride
Air Spring Rated to 20K
An HD multi-ply rubber air bag with a heavier ply count than the 14K version carries up to 20,000 lbs of trailer load and still soaks up the road shock before it reaches your truck and cargo.
Adjusts With the Load
A heavy bumper-pull trailer can swing 1,000+ lbs between empty and full. Add air for the loaded run, bleed it off for the deadhead home. The HD airbag gives you a wider usable pressure range than the 14K to work with.
Reinforced 8-Hole Chassis
It keeps the same outside shape as the Original line, so every Shocker ball mount still fits, but the wall steel is thicker and the welds are reinforced to handle 20K loads.
Single Rocker-Arm Pivot
Shocker's down-and-back motion runs on one pivot, with no slides, rollers, or stacked airbags, even at HD loads. Fewer moving parts under that much stress means it lasts longer.
Who the HD 20K Is Built For
Built for one-ton trucks and the heaviest bumper-pull combinations you can legally run.
- F-350, RAM 3500, and Silverado 3500 owners towing near their max trailer rating
- Livestock haulers pulling 30+ ft bumper-pull stock trailers
- Equipment and skid-steer haulers running 16k+ tilt-deck trailers
- Big enclosed cargo and car haulers loaded up to 20,000 lbs
- Dual-rear-wheel trucks with a 3-inch receiver that need a matched HD hitch
- Anyone whose Original 14K bottoms out under heavy tongue weight
What Makes the HD Different
Same chassis silhouette and the same attachment ecosystem, with a few upgrades that matter when the loads get heavy:
A Heavier Airbag
A multi-ply rubber bag rated for the full 20K GTW with a wider usable pressure range, so it carries heavier tongue weight without bottoming out on you.
Beefier Walls and Welds
Thicker steel and a reinforced weld pattern where the stress concentrates, rated for 2,000 lbs of tongue weight against 1,400 lbs on the Original 14K.
Flip It for Drop or Rise
This HD Air Hitch and Raised Ball Mount with a 2-5/16-inch ball and sway bar tabs ships in a 2-inch rise to 2-inch drop ball-mount setup. Most Shocker ball mounts are reversible, so you can flip the mount to turn drop into rise, or use the 8 adjustment holes to fine-tune coupler height. A heavy bumper-pull trailer really cares about sitting level. Get the drop wrong and you overload either the front or rear axle of the trailer, so take the time to dial it in.
Built for the Heaviest Bumper-Pull Loads
This one is built to take a beating. Reinforced heavy-wall steel under Shocker's signature impact-resistant safety-red powder coat, in stock and shipping direct from Canada with no border wait. If the HD-rated air bag ever needs replacing, it swaps out in minutes using the same simple Schrader-style fitting as the 14K. Backed by Shocker Hitch's 60-day satisfaction guarantee.
