Product Description
- This is a refurbished or used like new hitch that was returned to factory for whatever reason. It may have dings and nicks in finish. Otherwise it is like a almost new hitch & works great.
- Smoother Safer Towing with Built-in Air Ride System: Air ride towing technology with a built-in air spring to cushion the ride & absorb the road shock. Add instant air ride to your pickup & trailer. Helps eliminate tugs, thumps, jerks & bumps felt when towing on rough roads or concrete highways. Get a way smoother towing experience. No more jarring every time you cross a section divider. Absorbs road shock, creates a smooth ride & naturally reduces the tendency to trailer sway. Dual urethane bump cushions offer maximum performance.
- Heavy Duty 5/16" Thick Side Plates with 8 Adjustment Holes: 2" of rise to 8-1/2" of drop. Depends on mount chosen. See the drop & rise guide below.

- Saves Money & Reduces Damage to Trailer & Cargo: By reducing trailer breakage on both the trailer & contents. The Shocker hitch absorbs the damaging forces experienced with a typical hard connection. This greatly reduces the chances of breaking welds & doing other long-term damage to your equipment & valuable cargo.

Smoother towing every mile. Instant air ride for your pickup & trailer. Build your own Shocker 14K Air Hitch® by selecting your receiver hitch size and the adjustable ball mount that suits your towing needs. Choose the air ride receiver hitch base frame with or without a ball mount attachment.
The built-in airbag absorbs road shock and cushions your ride, creating a smoother towing experience for your pickup, trailer, and contents. This miniature air suspension system sits between your truck and trailer, filtering the bangs, bumps, jerks, and tugs normally experienced with a hard hitch connection. Dual bump cushions provide additional cushioning on dirt and gravel roads and concrete highways. There is no reason to beat yourself or your equipment up with a hard connection between your trailer and receiver hitch.
Fine-tune the air pressure for your trailer’s weight to get the best ride and load control. The air ride system sits under the receiver tube, with 10½ inches between the mounting pin and ball center.
Choose from 20+ Shocker receiver hitch ball mount attachments, including combo ball, drop mount, raised mount, sway bar mounting tab options, clevis pin, drawbar, pintle hook, pintle with ball and more.
The Shocker Air Hitch base frame includes everything except the ball mount attachment. The 14K Air Receiver Hitch has a 14,000 lbs towing capacity and 1,400 lbs tongue weight capacity.
Installation is simple: slide the hitch into a standard receiver tube. Designed for pickup trucks, vans, select SUVs, motorhomes, and RVs with the receiver tube mounted underneath the bumper.
Manufactured by Shocker Hitch® USA in Jamestown, ND.
California Residents: Prop 65 Warning
I chose the “refurbished hitch” to save a little money. I received the hitch in great condition. Looks new! Not a scratch on it, even though FedEx beat the day lights out of the box the hitch was packed in. For the hitch, I tow a 22-foot pontoon boat on some of the roughest roads around (Arizona Highways) and this thing was great! It’s not like driving on a cloud but close to it, helped smooth out the potholes and bridge joints. I was concerned about getting one with the cost, but after my 1100-mile round trip, I very much feel it is worth the cost.
Awewome! Works as advertised and the customer rep was very knowledgeable and helped me chose the right setup for my towing needs.
Made my tongue pull tow better/smoother then my 5th wheel.
Well built with tight tolerances. I wouldn’t pull without it, I use my trailers 5 days a week. This is the best hitch available, it takes the bounce out of towing.
Wanted to offer positive experience with Gjordin in sales. Gjordin went above and beyond standard service level to offer us technical information, and outstanding pricing. Gjordin was polite, professional and returned a call as he promised.
Gjordin is a firm believer in the Shocker product he sells and is a asset to the staff at Shocker Hitch. I wanted to offer praise for outstanding work and wish customer support more like this with other products/ companies, if my hitch is half as good as the customer service, I’m in great shape! Look forward to trying the hitch on our new truck!
Kind Regards,
Dan Cordier
