Video Transcript for Review of Gen-Y Hitch Trailer Hitch Ball Mount - Adjustable Ball Mount - GY52NR

Hello, neighbors, Steven here with etrailer.com. Folks, today we're looking at a Gen-Y Torsion 2-Ball Mount Ball Shank with these stacked receivers for a three inch by three inch hitch receiver with a max of nine inch drop, rated at 32,000 pounds. So, folks, this nice, adjustable ball mount's gonna let you hook up your trailer to your tow vehicle. The three inch by three inch shank will slide into your three inch shank on your towed vehicle. And you've got two different pin options here. You've got 5/8 or 3/4 inch.

The pin and clip for both of those holes, whichever one you need is sold separately. I highly recommend you picking up a lockable one here to etrailer.com to protect your investment. You've got five stacked receivers here, and those are all the 2 1/2 by 2 1/2, the square size. So, you can not only use this 2 5/16 or two inch and the pintle latch here for the lunette ring, but you could also take these out, potentially put in your own ball or your own attachment accessory, whatever, and use that as well. They give you two pin and clips as well to hold each of those in place.

Now, this is what they call a shock-absorbent design, and it acts much like a torsion axle. I've got a cutaway here for demo I wanna show you. So, inside of here, you've got four rubber braided cords and they're gonna be around that steel square insert, and when you're towing and you hit bumps and stuff, that's gonna act like a nice suspension dampener, and it's gonna transfer that road shock. So, you're not gonna feel any of that stuff, and that's how it's working. You get a grease circuit up here on top.

Make sure you grease that probably once a year. Just follow the maintenance schedule that's in the instructions that come with the product. Now, another nice feature is that it's adjustable heights, so that means you can tow different trailer heights with the same vehicle, by just simply moving the ball up or down as needed. As you can see, it's got a nice, elegant hammered e-coat, or I'm sorry, epoxy powder coat finish on it. It's a black and gray mix.

It does have a zinc primer underneath all that to help keep rust and corrosion. Highly, highly resistant. It is SAE J684-certified. It's been made right here in the US. Now, they're gonna give you a five-year warranty on all the torsion suspension parts here, and then a limited lifetime on everything else. Now, dimensions. As far as an overall height, I was getting 15 3/16 inches tall. And then for some measurements on the length, I'm gonna be using the center of the 5/8 inch hole going this way. So, if I take that and I go to the edge over here, I was getting, before I was shooting here, I was getting 12 7/8 inches, and if I measured center of the hole all the way to the outside up here, I got 17 1/4 inches. (tape measure clacks) Now, it has a gross towing weight max out of 32,000 pounds when you're using that 25/16 ball, and the optimal tongue ride weight you want is between 2,000 to 3,500 pounds of tongue weight. Once again, it has a maximum of a nine inch drop. And folks, again, this is the Gen-Y Torsion Ball Mount with a three inch by three inch receiver hitch size. Folks, I'm Steven, thanks so much for your time. I hope this information's been helpful. Have fun with your new product, and as always, stay safe while you're towing.
