This is heavy duty unit that in most cases exceeds factory towing weight capacities, therefore it’s important you read and follow the tongue & tow weight recommendations of the truck it is mounted on, hitch & ball rating, the trailer coupler rating & the ratings of the trailer you are towing. It also requires professional welding onto the trailer for the weight rating to be applicable.

GREAT PRODUCT. VERY HEAVY DUTY. MUST DO: UPGRADE/REPAIR.
The tongue was a perfect upgrade to my car trailer that had a bent coupler. My welder/fab guy said that it was great quality steel that was good to work with. Shocker hitch was great to work with very well priced and got my parts quick
Any know if I can get this a-frame coupler in Ontario Canada ?(toronto )
Fantastic product! Exactly what I was looking for. Versatile for most any applications and great quality.
Excellent product! I will use these systems from this point forward. Very Quality!

Absolutely the way to go if you intend to enjoy the luxury of installing and towing with the Shocker Air Trailer Tongue Coupler. I’m glad the team at Shocker recommended this component that they have perfected. I installed the unit myself, and while I’m a pretty good welder this made the job picture perfect!
Great design. Great customer service. Great product. Very easy to install (weld) on to my trailer. I’ll upload some pics when I’m complete.
Great customer service and I’m sure the product quality will be great. Answered all of my questions quickly & gave professional advice on installation techniques. Went out of the way to get my parts to the shipping company so I didn’t have to wait till Monday the next week.
Will definitely get something else here.. Thanks!
Came as described, was easy to assemble and weld on. Only thing I will reccomend is if your not a confident welder pay one to do it or have them pre weld it. I’ve seen some pretty sketchy things in my line of work in 34 years and other people’s lives could be at risk including yourself. All in all a super quick install with accurate and clean cut pieces ready to assemble.
Perfect, cut the old ball hitch off, weld the new one on.
