Gen-Y Hitch Boss Torsion-Flex 5″ Drop Hitch and Versa-Ball, 16,000-lb., 2″ Shank

The Gen-Y Hitch Boss Torsion-Flex is the innovative fusion of the Mega-Duty Drop Hitch and Torsion-Flex technology. In addition to being heavy-duty, fully adjustable, and versatile, the Boss also contains rubber torsion arms. Therefore, only 10% of the trailer inertia transfers compared to 100% when using a hard connection hitch. The 90% smoother ride allows you to glide instead of bounce, therefore increasing gas mileage. Since the tow vehicle and trailer track independently, customers gain greater control and safety through the reduction in sway and trailer bounce.Braking control is also increased because all of the weight on the tow vehicle and trailer is distributed evenly. Bumps, potholes, curves, hills, and even other drivers can be a hazard, and the Boss keeps you under control when confronted with these conditions. Additionally, this hitch reduces metal fatigue caused by traditional towing that takes a toll on the trailer and its contents.All Gen-Y Hitch products are rigorously tested and exceed the SAE-J684 Weight Testing Requirements. Never exceed the recommended capacity on any trailer tow coupling or vehicle receiver hitch.
