Installation and Usage Notes:
- Break-In Period: A break-in period of 1,000 miles is recommended to ensure optimal performance and reliability of the hitch.
- Weight Calibration: It is crucial to ensure that the pin weight is within the specified range for the pin box’s shock absorption to function effectively.
- Reduced Clearance Alert: Note that due to its design, the Gen-Y Hitch Executive may reduce clearance between your trailer and tow vehicle during turns compared to some traditional models.
Built-In Shock Absorption Mechanism:
The internal mechanics of the Gen-Y Hitch torsion pin box feature pivot points that facilitate movement between the box and the king pin. This innovative setup allows the king pin to adjust dynamically to trailer movements, absorbing impacts from bumps and jerks effectively. Inside the pin box, tubes with inner bars are surrounded by rubber cords that twist to absorb movements, ensuring that shocks are mitigated before they can affect the stability of your truck or trailer.
The Gen-Y Hitch torsion pin box is an excellent choice for fifth-wheel trailer owners seeking to upgrade their towing setup with a focus on safety, comfort, and durability. This pin box not only improves the quality of your rides but also protects your equipment by reducing the wear and tear associated with rough towing conditions.
