Universal Articulating Trailer Hitch 2in Shank 9,921 lb (GHM-AT)

This is GEN-Y's Articulating Trailer Hitch, a solid one piece tongue and ball mount that slides into any 2in receiver and pairs with an articulating coupler. GEN-Y's own listing positions it for agricultural duty, specifically for use with an articulating coupler and a forage or hay wagon, where the coupler provides the movement and the mount provides a rigid, high capacity anchor. It is rated at 9,921 lbs, or 4,500 kg, and three pinnable holes let you move the coupling closer to or further from the vehicle to dial in the geometry.

The one detail that catches people out is the pin hole. It measures 32 mm, which GEN-Y also publishes as 1.25in, and that is noticeably larger than the 5/8in pin most North American receivers use. A standard 5/8in hitch pin will be sloppy in this hole, so plan on sourcing an appropriately sized pin before the first hookup. The mount also accepts 50 mm or 70 mm balls, or DO35 and DO45 style pin couplings, with a reducer bush required for DO35 that is sold separately.

Features

• Fits any 2in receiver
• Rated at 4,500 kg, which is 9,921 lbs
• Solid one piece construction
• Three pinnable holes to move the coupling closer to or further from the vehicle
• Accepts 50 mm or 70 mm balls, or DO35 and DO45 pin couplings
• 32 mm, or 1.25in, hitch pin hole

Notes

• The 32 mm / 1.25in pin hole is LARGER than a standard 5/8in North American receiver pin. A standard 5/8in hitch pin will be sloppy in this hole and an appropriately sized pin is required.
• A reducer bush is required for DO35 couplings and is sold separately.
• GEN-Y's own listing frames the use case as agricultural, for an articulating coupler with a forage or hay wagon, rather than as a road going tow ball mount.
• Articulating refers to the coupler this mount pairs with. The mount itself is solid and has no articulating joint.
