This unique, adjustable channel bracket from Gen-Y Hitch offers 5 mounting positions for your ball coupler, clevis, or lunette ring (all sold separately). This lets you easily adjust the height of your coupler to fit your application. This bracket also has built-in shock absorption to ensure a safe, smooth towing experience. Using technology similar to that found in torsion trailer axles, the Gen-Y channel bracket absorbs road shock, isolating any rough jarring or chucking at the connection point. This prevents the rough motion from transferring from the trailer to the vehicle and vice versa.

Built-In Shock Absorption for a Smooth Ride

When towing with a standard coupler, you might experience rough, jerking motion when driving over bumps. This harsh motion can cause shock and strain on your towing connection and can even potentially damage your vehicle or trailer. This Gen-Y Hitch torsion channel is designed to absorb road shock at the connection point to create a safe, smooth ride. This is thanks to the internal construction of the unit, which is similar to that of a torsion axle.

Pivot points are built into the center of this unit. This allows for movement between the adjustable channel, where your coupler attaches, and the mounting point, which connects the unit to your trailer. When you're starting and stopping while towing a heavy load, or when you hit a bump in the road, the coupler side of the bracket will move up and down accordingly.

Built into the Gen-Y mount are tubes with inner bars that are surrounded by rubber cords. As the channel bracket moves up and down, these inner bars twist inside of the tubes, attempting to follow the bracket's motion. But the rubber cords prevent the bars from twisting too far. And as each bar turns, these cords compress to absorb the shock. This means that any shock experienced by your truck can be absorbed before it reaches your trailer, and the shock experienced by your trailer won't get transferred to your truck.

Easily Check Your Tongue Weight

This mount features a built-in mechanical tongue weight scale. The highest arrow on the scale indicates the mount's maximum tongue weight (2,400 lbs). The lowest arrow indicates no tongue weight (0 lbs). There must be a minimum tongue weight of 1,500 lbs for the built-in shock absorption to function. This means that the tongue weight scale's white indicator marker should be between the highest arrow and the middle arrow when you hook up your trailer to tow.

Designed for Heavy-Duty Towing

This Gen-Y Hitch torsion channel bracket is perfect for use with heavy equipment trailers that are used with multiple tow vehicles. Unlike the Gen-Y torsion ball mounts, this unit installs on your trailer so you can easily switch between different tow vehicles. Just mount the coupler needed for your specific application - a standard ball coupler, lunette ring, or clevis hitch - in the 3" channel and adjust the height of the coupler to match the height of your tow vehicle's hitch.

No matter what vehicle you tow with, you will get premium shock absorption and a smooth, steady ride.
