- Improves Safety: By giving you improved control of your tow vehicle and trailer. The air ride receiver hitch system allows for better control of your pickup and the trailer it is towing.

- Saves Money: By reducing trailer breakage on both the trailer and the trailer contents! The Shocker hitch absorbs the damaging forces experienced with a typical hard connection. This greatly reduces the chances of breaking welds and doing other long-term damage to your equipment, as well as the valuable cargo you have inside the truck and trailer.

Add instant air-ride towing to your pickup and trailer with the Shocker Air Receiver Hitch. Shocker Hitch designed the metric ball mount attachments to make sure we can accommodate everyone’s towing needs. This shock-absorbing hitch is a miniature air suspension unit mounted between your pickup truck and trailer that channels the road shock through the built-in air ride suspension system. This shock-absorbing metric ball mount hitch takes the bumps, jerks, tugs, and roughness out of trailer towing and cushions your ride and overall towing experience. These metric mount air ride hitches feature a smaller metric sized 22mm (7/8″ Hole) with no hitch ball and are made for Australian / European use only. The mount is designed for a 50 mm or 70 mm hitch ball bolted onto it. The Shocker Air is backed by a 14,000 lbs tow rating capacity and 1,400 lbs tongue weight, and offers a 2″ rise to 8-1/2″ of drop depending on the mount. Shocker Hitch air provides the ultimate smooth ride. This Shocker mounts by sliding into a standard 2″ receiver tube. This air hitch is offered with a standard, drop, or raise mount.
The air ride system sits under the receiver tube, allowing a short distance of 10 inches between the mounting pin and ball center. You will find the advantage of the Air Shocker is your ability to adjust air pressure for the best ride and load control. Fits a standard 2″ receiver tube.
