No need to shop around. etrailer my #1 go to for many years, fast service and very valuable information on web side.



by:

Fitment was good includes new bolts took 5 min to install and a good replacement for the worn hitch on our 24ft flatbed.



by:

I believe this is the second one that I bought from this website. They're very good quality and well worth the money. I bought a different one from Amazon which worked fine but not even close to the amount of quality in there about the same price



by:

The estimated delivery tool, and confirmation email was misleading, effectively making me lose a bid on a trailer because the hitch was not delivered on time. Not only did customer service not apologize, but they then charged me $[XX] to ship it back. I will never use etrailer again. Stay away, they are getting too high and mighty, losing sight of customers.

Had to modify o fit chanel

I purchased this coupler about a year ago and so far it has worked flawlessly. It is easy to use, when locked it seems to be a very clean hook up and has performed well both summer and winter in Minnesota where the freezing weather and snow can be a problem. I will purchase another one for my other trailer it works so well.

Another year has gone by and I have nothing but good things to say about this coupler. I have several of these couplers and all of them are holding up well in our Minnesota winters. No corrosion or stickiness to them. The only maintainance we have done on them is to spray them occasionally with WD-40. I would highly recommend them to anyone.



by:

Excellent coupler. Much heaver than the one I took off. It's much easier to couple and uncouple from the truck. The coupler I replaced was rated at 14000 lbs and this new one is rated at 15000 lbs.



by:

The products purchased are good quality. Customer Service is excellent. Thank you



by:

I purchased this coupler because I have one on another trailer and I like the fact that the locking pin is attached. Additionally, it works so much easier than the bulldog coupler I am replacing plus you can lock it in the open position for attaching the vehicle.



by:

One of my favorite couplers! Easy to use with gloves and positive locking with a hitch pin. Quick arrival as well.

JUST WHAT I NEEDED FOR MY TRAILER . COULDNT HAVE WORKED ANY BETTER THANK YOU



by:

This company is excellent! They have things I didn’t
even know I needed. Quick turn around time. Couldn’t be easier to get lights, hitches, jacks, brake controls (electric or electric over hydraulic). Been using this company for years and never had a problem.



by:

I like this coupler a lot. It is of a heavy duty cast material with a locking lever and a safety pin that's connected to the coupler so you don't lose it. Even came with mounting bolts, as shown. Very fast shipping. I'm impressed.



by:

I've had this product for a year and has been a great replacement for my much older design. The tonnage has proven tough, and has been pushed to it's limits with my loaded trailer. A great design for continual use. I have it on a 4k lb Walton dump trailer that has had up to 10k lb in it. Seemed like my truck was more concerned than my link to the trailer. Thanks eTrailer.



by:

i bought this product to replace a sticking coupler and it has worked out great for me! Very easy to use and the locking pin for extra safety is a plus.



by:

This is the third time I have ordered from e-trailer. each time it was easy and quick to place an order and the products were delivered with in 4 to 5 days and were packed so as not to incur any shipping damage. I will use e- trailer again.



by:

Excellent! was exactly what I had expected it would be, and fit perfectly; identical to the item I replaced in every respect. Very happy with the service and would glady use etrailer.com again!



by:

bought these for use on on PTO driven implements. they are extremely heavy duty and well built, exactly as advertised. my only caution to someone using them for a similar use is to be aware the release mechanism sticks up a couple inches, and for use with a PTO it may make for close tolerances, depending on PTO location on equipment. other than being aware of that, you can't go wrong with these.



by:

Great products! Always fast and prompt service!



by:

excellent heavy duty hitch at a good price and super fast shipping



by:

Wow, I ordered this coupler three days ago and just received it and we are in the Holiday Christmas Season. It is everything they said it was. The quality of this product is outstanding, I am going to install it on my trailer this weekend. Great product with low prices.
I will definitely be ordering from you guys again.
Thank you
Douglas.
