Built-In Shock Absorption Mechanism:
The Gen-Y pin box features an internal design with pivot points that allow for dynamic movement between the box and the coupler tube. This design is essential for absorbing vibrations and shocks during transit. The system includes tubes with inner bars surrounded by rubber cords, which twist to adapt to the coupler's movements. The rubber cords limit excessive twisting and compress under load to dampen the impact, effectively preventing the transmission of shocks from the road to the truck and trailer.
By choosing the Gen-Y Hitch torsion pin box, you're investing in a superior towing solution that not only improves safety and comfort but also extends the lifespan of your towing equipment by reducing wear and tear. Ideal for long hauls and rough terrains, this pin box ensures that both your vehicle and trailer will enjoy a smoother ride.
