Description
Hauling a heavy trailer over potholes, bumps, and uneven roads can send every jolt straight through your truck, making towing uncomfortable for both you and your cargo. The Gen-Y Hitch BOSS Torsion-Flex Pintle Plate helps soften those impacts with built-in rubber torsion suspension that cushions movement between your truck and trailer. Unlike a traditional rigid hitch connection, the Torsion-Flex design allows the trailer to move more smoothly over rough roads, helping reduce bouncing and harsh jolts. Gen-Y reports up to a 90% smoother ride, making long trips and demanding towing jobs more comfortable. The BOSS combines Gen-Y's adjustable MEGA-DUTY hitch design with Torsion-Flex technology to help reduce stress on your towing setup. By absorbing road shock, it can help minimize tire wear, reduce repeated impacts on your trailer and cargo, and provide a more controlled towing experience around curves, hills, and uneven surfaces. It's especially useful when hauling equipment, supplies, or livestock that can be affected by excessive trailer movement. Designed to work with most compatible four-hole bolt-on pintle hitch assemblies, the adjustable plate allows you to position a compatible pintle hook at the proper towing height. Available in 16K and 21K towing capacities with 2-inch, 2.5-inch, and 3-inch receiver options, the BOSS is built for heavy-duty towing applications. Its durable construction is designed to handle demanding use, while Gen-Y states that its products are tested to exceed SAE J684 towing requirements. Whether you're hauling equipment for work or towing long distances, this pintle plate offers a cushioned alternative to a traditional rigid towing connection. IMPORTANT NOTES: Compatible with most four-hole bolt-on pintle hitch assemblies. Verify compatibility before ordering. 3-inch receivers are only offered on select Ford vehicles manufactured after 2017. Verify receiver compatibility before ordering. GH-1401 includes the Gen-Y GH-0100 stabilizer kit. Confirm your receiver size, required drop height, towing capacity, and tongue weight before purchasing. Never exceed the rating of the lowest-rated component in your towing setup. Gen-Y recommends an average break-in period of approximately 500 miles.

About GEN-Y Hitch
Gen-Y Hitch is a company built out of necessity. For anyone with a truck that obviously uses it to tow at least some kind of trailer, determining the proper ball mount for each trailer can be an unduly pain. While the height of your truck doesn't typically change very often, each trailer can have varying heights coupled with varying ball sizes. At this point, you have several options. You can carry numerous ball mounts for each trailer, or possibly you just call it "good enough" and have a trailer that is not riding level. Or maybe you're one of the smart ones and have an adjustable height ball mount that allows you to carry a single ball mount for all trailers. Sure, there's a lot of options out there, but most of them have inadequate load carrying capacity and lock in place by a single pin, meaning you get a ton of wiggle and rattle that is not only annoying, but also unsafe.GEN-Y Hitch

Gen-Y Hitch manufactures extreme duty towing products that are made in the USA and proven to be the strongest, most versatile trailer mounting system on the market. Lets face it, the trailer and its contents are valuable, and so is your truck, don't attach the two with a loose, rusty piece of garbage you picked up at your local parts store two decades ago, upgrade with the best, upgrade with a Gen-Y.
