How does the GEN-Y pintle hitch work?
The original quick adjust GEN-Y pintle hitch system uses the standard GH-061 2.5″ Versa-Ball in addition to the GH-062 pintle lock to quickly and safely connect to any size or height pintle coupling. By simply pulling the pin in the pintle lock and sliding it back into the adjustable GEN-Y hitch system, the lunette eye (pintle ring) of the pintle trailer can then be lowered down over the 2 5/16″ side of the Versa-Ball. The last step is to slide the pintle lock back out across the lunette eye and pin it in place securely.

Does Your Truck Have a Lift Kit?
Got a lift, no problem! However, there are a few things to think about when towing with a lifted vehicle. First of all, a long drop hitch (12″ or more) will put added leverage on the vehicle receiver. Therefore, in some cases, receiver hitch manufactures will reduce ratings by as much as 50%. Secondly, a long drop hitch will typically create a lot more movement due to the added length and drop of the ball mount. Using the Stabilizer Kit (GH-0100) will tie the bottom of the GEN-Y adjustable drop hitch into the frame of the truck which will take the stress off of the receiver as well as keeping the bottom of the ball mount to move, ensuring a safe towing experience.

Offset Drop Hitch
The offset drop hitch allows you to raise your hitch 2 1⁄2” and lower it 5″ at the same time, giving more options for any dual-purpose jobs you may have. For example, pulling a car dolly and attaching a bike rack or using tow bars and a luggage rack at the same time.
