Torsion Hitch
Safety
With Rubber Torsion Hitches only 10% of the trailer inertia transfers compared to 100% using a hard connection hitch giving you the ultimate control.
Ultimate Control
The tow vehicle and trailer track independently giving you greater control and added safety by reducing sway and trailer bounce.
Greatly increased braking control since all the weight on the tow vehicle and trailer is distributed evenly giving you increased positive contact when braking and maneuvering.
Safeguards Against Uncontrollable Road Conditions
Bumps, potholes, expansion joints, curves, hills, and other drivers can be a hazard, keeps you under control when confronted with these conditions.
Saves Gas and Tire Wear
The 90% smoother ride allows you to glide instead of bounce increasing gas mileage.
Saves You Money

Arrive Alive

Founded in 2011, GEN-Y Hitch® manufactures a variety of towing products, including hitches, couplers, ramps, accessories, and more. Carl Borkholder, the owner of the company, began to design an adjustable tri-ball/pintle combination hitch which allowed a truck to tow multiple different trailers. The result of this work was the development of the patented GEN-Y Hitch. GEN-Y Hitch has continued to develop the GEN-Y Hitch line, which currently encompasses eight Class IV hitches as well as 3 Class V models. All of these hitches are designed with multiple stacked receivers that enable the three ball mount, to be easily adjusted for height and have weight capacities from 10,000 lb to 32,000 lb.
