Hitch Pin
Come Together Right Now Over Trailer Hitches
If you got, camping gear. If you got, boats and jet skis. If you got, U-hauls loaded down to the axle, forget about the bumper…or it’s likely to fly free. Come together, right now…over trailer hitches.
Bad Beatles impression notwithstanding, the bumper of your truck may work great for hauling a stump out of the ground or even towing another car over short distances, but it’s definitely not intended to support the weight often associated with recreational gear, heavy equipment and anything else you may need to take along with you. That’s why the automotive-powers-that-be invented trailer hitches.
Trailer hitches, like a Toyota Tacoma trailer hitch or a F150 tow hitch, are available in two styles: receiver and fixed-drawbar. A receiver hitch mounts directly onto the frame of your rig and accepts removable ball mounts, trailers or any other hitch-mounted accessories. Fixed-drawbar hitches usually feature one-piece construction with a built-in hole for the trailer ball and are therefore typically not compatible with aftermarket hitch accessories.
Some models, like those produced by Hidden Hitch, mount discreetly under your bumper and provide a seamless fit with removable drawbars and a low-profile design. Able to tow everything from Airstream travel trailers to horse carriers, Hidden Hitch manufactures hitches that are barely noticeable until something gets saddled to them.
Also known as a tow hitch, there are five unique types of trailer hitches here in the US. Numbered simply as class 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. Classes 1 and 2 are designed to accommodate lighter loads of no more than 3,500 lbs while classes 3, 4 and 5 can handle up to 10,000 lbs, making them ideally-suited for larger items like boats and campers. Since the weight of that gear adds up pretty quick, you might consider hitch locks. Locking hitch pins and trailer hitch locks stop thieves from making off with your gear and tack on an additional level of safety by further preventing runaway trailers.
Designed uniquely for your make, model and year, Draw Tite hitches and similar models provide the perfect fit onto your frame for heavy-duty reliability no matter what you’ve got behind you. Most heavy-duty trailer hitches are designed using cutting-edge computer-aided models and fatigue stress testing to ensure optimal strength. Plus, the solid, all-weld build and black powder coating provide additional toughness and protect again rust, corrosion and oxidation.
