Gen Y The Boss TorsionFlex 2.5In Shank 6In Drop 3500 lb Hitch w/GH-0161 Dual-Ball/ Pintle Lock
The Gen-Y Hitch GEN-Y BOSS TORSION-FLEX HITCH is a revolutionary towing hitch designed to provide superior performance and towing capabilities. This state-of-the-art hitch incorporates advanced torsion-flex technology, ensuring a smoother, more stable towing experience.
The BOSS Torsion-Flex Hitch is the combination of Torsion-Flex technology and the Mega-Duty drop hitch. It has several applications. From construction contractors and municipality fleets to anyone needing to hook up multiple trailers. Aside from being heavy-duty, fully adjustable, and versatile, this hitch also has rubber torsion arms. This amazing technology means that instead of 100% of the trailer’s inertia being transferred, you only get 10%. Because the tow vehicle and trailer track independently, those who use this hitch have greater control and safety due to the reduction in sway and trailer bounce.
Another benefit is the increase in braking control due to the evenly distributed weight of the tow vehicle. Although bumps, potholes, curves, hills, and even other drivers can be a common danger on the road, the BOSS keeps you in control when facing these dangerous conditions. The BOSS Torsion-Flex hitch also reduces metal fatigue caused by traditional towing which can take a toll on the trailer and its contents. Consequently, the BOSS increases the quality of life and holds value, ensuring that everyone (family, friends, and livestock) arrives at the destination safe and sound.
The Gen-Y Hitch mount is unique in that it includes a ball mount that can easily be positioned in one of 6 stacked receivers that sit along the unit’s vertical shank. This dual-ball mount lets you tow a trailer with a 2? ball coupler or a 2-5/16? ball coupler. Another included benefit is a pintle lock, which can be inserted directly into the receiver above the ball mount to create a pintle hitch which allows you to hook up a trailer with a lunette ring. This adjustable pintle hook is unlike others on the market because there are no nuts and bolts to remove when changing the position of this hitch. You just need to move the ball mount and pintle lock up or down to get the proper height, then secure them in place with the included pins.
The BOSS hitch has several uses. Not only can you use this hitch to pull campers, equipment trailers, and horse trailers, but you can adjust it for other uses as well. With the 6 stacked receivers, not only do you have the ability to adjust the height of the included ball mount, but you also have the ability to add various other hitch-mounted accessories. You can insert a bike rack or cargo carrier. Or you could even mount a spare tire carrier. You can flat tow your vehicle by using a tow bar or even add a fun hitch cover. This heavy-duty mount is built with a 1,700-lb tongue weight. So if you want, you could even use multiple hitch accessories at the same time, provided there are no issues with clearance. This means that you can use your hitch-mounted bike rack to haul your bikes while also flat towing your vehicle.
In 2008, when Carl Borkholder was working with a tree service company, he had the idea of creating a universal hitch that could attach any trailer to a truck at any ride height. He welded together a prototype adjustable drop hitch, and people that saw the hitch in action told Carl he should sell them. Just like that, GEN-Y HITCH was born, and its robust, versatile hitches hit the market. The company's patented Torsion-Flex technology was developed shortly after to eliminate the harsh bouncing and jerking experienced when towing a trailer. This remarkable technology uses a built-in suspension in the hitch to provide the smoothest ride on the market. Users have even reported improvements in fuel economy.
GEN-Y HITCH also produces other accessories such as aluminum ramps, tow hooks, hitch steps, and trailer anti-theft locks, all of which are made in-house with the same meticulous manufacturing processes as its hitches. The company is committed to creating innovative, quality products and serving its customers with honor, dignity, and respect.
