Gen-Y Hitch Boss Torsion Flex 4500kg 5 Drop Australian Tongue DO45
Gen Y Hitch – Boss Torsion 5″ Drop Australian Tongue DO45 hitch has a 2 inch receiver and a towing capacity of 4,500 kg and a tongue weight of 500 kg.
Torsion Hitch provides the ultimate control and safety while towing. Any bumper style trailer on the market can be fitted with it, even those with pintle style couplings. The parts are precision milled and drilled. Easily adjustable tow hitch with a single pin.
There is no airbag to maintain, no bearing to wear out, and virtually no maintenance required. The tongue has a built-in mechanical weight scale to ensure that the load is balanced and safe.
When using rubber hitches, only 10% of trailer inertia transfers, as opposed to 100% when using a hard connection Gen-Y hitch.
With the tow vehicle and trailer tracking independently, you have greater control and added safety, virtually eliminating all sway.
You will have increased positive contact when breaking and maneuvering, since all the weight on the tow vehicle and trailer is distributed evenly.
The system acts as a safeguard against uncontrollable road conditions such as bumps, potholes, expansion joints, curves, hills, and other drivers that can pose a hazard. It keeps you under control when confronted with these conditions. Reduces tyre wear and fuel costs.
The 90% smoother ride increases fuel savings by allowing you to glide instead of bounce. Saves you money by reducing trailer fatigue and content fatigue. Metal fatigue caused by traditional towing results in your trailer and its contents taking a beating.
Ensures everyone (family, friends, pets, horses, and livestock, caravan hitch) arrives safely by reducing driver fatigue.

Torsion hitches necessitate an initial towing distance of a few hundred kilometers with a load to properly calibrate the torsion rubbers for their intended flexibility. During assembly, the torsion rubbers are frozen to facilitate their fitting into the housing. This initial towing phase allows the rubbers to settle in, ensuring they function as intended.

The Torsion-Flex Drop Hitch stands out as the optimal choice for unparalleled control and safety during towing, catering to a variety of bumper style trailers in the market, including those with pintle-style couplings.
