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.
Lift your truck and suddenly nothing lines up. The receiver sits inches higher than your trailer's tongue, so the trailer rides nose-high, wanders in the wind, and chucks you around on every frost heave and hard stop. The Shocker HD Max Black Super Drop is built for exactly that gap between a truck that sits high and a trailer tongue that sits low. The 12-hole Super Drop frame gives you up to 12-1/2 inches of drop, and it runs the same 20K air ride suspension that defines the HD Max Black line, so you get the clearance without the bone-jarring ride of a solid steel drop bar. This Shocker HD Max Black Super Drop Air Hitch & Raised Ball Mount w/ 2" Ball & Sway Bar Tabs is rated at 20,000 lbs GTW, slides into any 2-inch receiver, and gives you 2" Rise to 6" Drop to dial in a level tow on lifted rigs and low-deck trailers.

What the Super Drop Frame Does For You
Four More Holes to Work With
You get four extra adjustment holes over the standard 8-hole HD Max Black frame. That extra room is what unlocks 10 to 12 inches of drop, enough to get a lifted truck sitting level behind you.
Air Ride at Every Drop Setting
Most extreme-drop hitches are a solid slab of steel that beats you up on every bump. The Super Drop keeps the airbag working across the entire drop range, so you never trade a smooth ride for the clearance you need.
Flip It for Rise
Turn the frame over and you get up to 2 inches of rise. Handy for a cab-over camper or a taller trailer tongue behind a stock-height truck.
Works With Every HD Max Black Attachment
It takes every HD Max Black ball mount attachment, from combo balls to pintles, clevises, and drawbars. Buy the frame once and swap attachments as your trailers change.
Trucks and Trailers This Was Made For
If your factory hitch leaves the trailer hanging nose-high or nose-low, you need more drop range. This frame gives it to you.
- Lifted half-ton, 3/4-ton, and 1-ton pickups running 3 to 6 inch lifts
- Trailers with low front tongues that ride nose-up on tall trucks
- Low-deck equipment haulers, race trailers, and gooseneck-converted bumper-pull trailers
- Dual-rear-wheel trucks that sit tall from the factory
- Any rig where a standard 6 to 7 inch drop still can't get the trailer level
- F-150-class half-ton trucks (and class III/IV receivers) running aftermarket suspension
Super Drop or Standard HD Max Black 20K?
Both ride on the same 20K air ride chassis. The only real question is how much drop your setup actually needs.
Standard HD Max Black 20K (8-hole frame)
Gets you up to roughly 7 inches of drop. This is the right call for a stock-height truck pulling a typical bumper-pull trailer. It costs less and covers most setups.
HD Max Black Super Drop (12-hole frame)
Gets you up to 12-1/2 inches of drop. Reach for this when the standard frame just can't get the trailer level, whether that's a lifted truck, a low-tongue trailer, or an odd height mismatch. It runs $50 to $80 over the standard frame.
Why a Level Trailer Matters More Than Most Buyers Think
Tow nose-high and weight comes off the trailer's front axle, which is what sets off sway. Tow nose-low and you overload that front axle, so the trailer dives every time you hit the brakes. Either way you burn through tires, fight a rough ride, and add distance to every stop. For most lifted-truck owners, getting the trailer level is the single biggest tow safety upgrade they can make, and the Super Drop frame is what makes it possible without giving up air ride.
Built and Finished for the Long Haul
A heavy-duty steel chassis carries the load, and the textured matte black powder coat hides road grime, fights off rock chips, and holds up to UV a lot better than a gloss finish. Inside is the same multi-ply commercial air bag used across the Shocker HD line. It's backed by Shocker's 60-day satisfaction guarantee, in stock, and shipping direct from Canada with no border wait.
