Video Transcript for Inside the GEN-Y Shock Absorbing Gooseneck a Manufacturer Breakdown

Hello neighbors, it's Brad here from etrailer, and today I'm at NATM, and this convention brings a lot of the vendors that we have at etrailer to a convention where we have their booths and their products set up. I had a chance to catch up with quite a few of them. So let's take a look at their products a little bit up close and ask some of the questions to those vendors about their products. I'm here with Jason from Gen-Y, and today we're talking about goosenecks. What do you guys offer Yeah, so for sure we have our static gooseneck coupler with our auto latch called the SnapLatch. The SnapLatch is just the same technology as we have our around our to fit the goose and our ADMIRAL, which is the A-frame or the C-channel coupler for the trailer side.

This obviously is for the gooseneck trailer side. This is an insert, goes into a four-inch round outer tube. Has adjustability, three adjustable positions. The cool thing again for this is our SnapLatch coupler where I open it up, and as I open it up, I unhook, you know, jack my trailer up, and it resets itself. Now it stays open next week, next month, next year, doesn't matter.

It's always gonna be in the open position. And then when I back up and I lower my trailer gooseneck coupler over the ball, it locks itself into place. I can never forget to lock it into place, the safest coupler on the market. And so we also have the torsion-flex gooseneck coupler, which by the way, both the static and the torsion-flex coupler gooseneck couplers have round and square application available, and they're both four-inch round or square. This, again, is torsion-flex, the same technology that we have in our bumper pool, and then also the EXECUTIVE, the torsion-flex EXECUTIVE.

So it gives you a more comfortable ride, it protects the assets of the trailer. If you're a construction guy and you're towing all these, you know, things of wood, or if you're, you know, a plumbing guy, whatever you're towing on that big gooseneck trailer, you're helping protect the assets that you're towing with. So one thing I wanna point out is that the pivot is all on rubber. There's no steel on steel pivot anywhere. There's a guy on the East coast that had horses and towing them back and forth on the East coast, and the first time that he used our torsion-flex gooseneck coupler, he said he got to where he was going, and he said always before the horses would come out, they we inchesre antsy, they we inchesre restless.

But literally the first time that he got to where he was going with our torsion-flex coupler on the trailer, he opened up the doors, and the torsions were just as calm as could be. So that was a really good feedback. So torsion-flex technology, SnapLatch, I mean, you got it all in a gooseneck application. Yep, for sure. So just as you've seen throughout the Gen-Y products that you guys use a lot of the same technology, but it's great. It's good technology that you're carrying through all of your products, and it's tried and true. Absolutely. So you guys stick with what you know, and Gen-Y is some of the heavy duty-est stuff out there, but it also looks great. Yep. I mean, the quality is there. I can't say enough good things about Gen-Y. Their products are fantastic, and a huge thanks to Jason for taking the time to show us all their products. Yeah, no, I appreciate etrailer.com also. You guys have just done a really good job in asking the right questions. You said a little bit about, you know, our technology and the cosmetics. I've always talked about the fact that we try to innovate products that are useful and meaningful to customers. We're not gonna just create a product just to create it. It's gonna have to have a, you know, validated by our consumer, and make sure that that's what they wanna see. And so the other thing is the cosmetics. There's nothing more ugly to see something in the aftermarket space that works great, but it looks ugly. So I think the two, the innovation and the cosmetics go together. So that's always our goal is to make sure that our products have the cosmetics to it, along with the innovation. So thanks again, etrailer.com. You guys are awesome. Appreciate everything you guys are doing for Gen-Y. Thank you.

Overall a pretty nice coupler nicely finished and very heavy-duty built. I only gave it 4 stars because the adjustment holes seem drilled off center and it makes the coupler look crooked when mounted on the trailer. This in no way affects its performance but it bothers my ocd. etrailer was great very fast shipping (I got it the next day) and notified every step of the way

See what our Experts say about this Gen-Y Hitch Gooseneck Coupler

  • Which Gooseneck Coupler Will Get Me Closest to an 8-1/2" Mounting Height Shocker or Gen-Y?
    Hello Justin, Welcome to etrailer, I'm glad you found us! It looks like the Gen-Y Viking Gooseneck Coupler # GY58AV is going to get you closer to the height you're looking for. I couldn't find the lowest mounting hole measurement for the Shocker Hitch Gooseneck Coupler # SHK88YR anywhere either, so I went out to our warehouse and measured one for you. From the center of the lowest mounting hole to the bottom of the coupler, I measured 10-1/4". I've attached a picture showing exactly...
