Works perfectly! in couplers

I have a 2 inch version of this model but need more height with the new trailer. I rated really high and the sleek design of these. As nice as it looks, it doesn't hurt when you kick it. giggle

Pros
  • Hands free operation
Cons
  • Some small things

The hitch is great, no gear required and it's .

The hitch is great, no gearbox needed and strong enough to tow any trailer. 4 out of 5 because I ordered 8 of these for our fleet and all 8 individual orders were ripped through the huge boxes they weren't safe in.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • New Competitors

Looks like garbage. - Couplers

Just open the box and put it on the truck. Lo and behold, there was a lot of play in all directions. I think to return. Apparently very poor quality. Not to mention the box it arrived in looked like it had been dropped a couple of times and the paint on it had chipped.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Empty

Chinese tow and winch junk

Loose as a goose, not made in the USA as claimed. I spoke to Kurt Rep on the phone and they claim that all the castings, balls and ball joints are made in CHINA because they can't produce them fast enough to fill orders. I call BS. This is because they cannot win big. Very disappointed, stick with RIGID, Made in USA, Burnsville, MN.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Almost never

Heavy-duty hitches and winches

Definitely a heavy-duty towbar! The box it came in was badly dented when I received it. I think the company that sent this would have taken better care of the packaging of this heavy item. It didn't damage the clutch in any way, just saying. Plus, it fits freely into your receiver's hitch, so you'll need to buy a shim to take up the slack or it will rattle. All in all this is a great product.

Pros
  • User-friendly
Cons
  • Quick start guide

Great Towbar Product

The ball joint is very strong. Good price. The carrier packed the trailer ball mount and heavy-duty ball in a box about 10 times larger than it should be, with no packaging to prevent the super-heavy contents from hitting and breaking the box during transportation. Fortunately the contents were not damaged but the box was destroyed. If a shipper takes pride in their product, they should take pride in preventing damage during transit.

Pros
  • Absolutely Amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

Very loose fit - lots of play and wobble

Pro's socket. - good price and strength compared to open square tubes, they seem very strong and durable which is one of the reasons I bought this particular one. It doesn't look like loosening could be due to a worn hitch. This ball mount is very loose. You can easily move it in any direction even with the clutch pin attached. Looks like they rounded all the square edges and made them about 1/8 inch smaller on all sides. Makes it easy to hit the receiver, but it wobbles in all directions. In…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Requires
