Love my shocker hitch. Have had mine for about 15 years. Used it daily for about 10 years hauling large trailers. Mine was the 2 1/2" receiver hitch setup. Its great because when you air it up to the bumps every 10psi ='s 100 lbs tongue wieght. So I was always able to know how much tongue wieght I had. Great buy especially compared to other air hitches. I even had my green urethane bumps melt after about 10 years in Florida sun, and I emailed shocker to buy replacements and they apologized and sent me new ones free. Great customer service, great hitch.

When you said “I’ll take you back in the cab with me” I shed a small tear. Something about hearing that truck from the outside is so much sweeter than in the cab. Still sounds good either way!

I have air ride for my truck and I'm so glad I spent the extra to have the remote control for it. I'm always adjusting the air when changing between 5 different trailers.

I just added an airlift wireless one compressor with a remote onto my flatbed trailer just for my shocker hitch... now I can adjust the air in the hitch without stoping. Thanks for the idea in your video. I'm pulling a 36' Pj hydraulic dove tail behind a 14' 3500.

I love the idea of the on-board air with a switch, but I really love the fast motion leveling job at 20 minutes in. Makes it look easy!

Stumbled on your channel this morning. Thanks for the demo of that shocker hitch. You did a great job of with video and audio. I have two goose necks similar to yours that I pull with F-350 diesel. We pull max load of 26,000 and I have lost all the fillings in my teeth. Can’t wait to get one of these. Looking forward to checking out your other videos.

I've have been running the shocker for years love the ride going forward but braking hard and backing up take a little getting used to

Thanks for mounting the camera by the hitch to really show the movement.

I run a Cody hitch on my gooseneck, stays with truck as I have 3 gooseneck trailers. Love it, and I have a shocker hitch for my bumper pull trailers. Love them both and on board air is a must. Love the channel!

Sam don't forget to grease that pivot bolt. Will help even more with the ride and stop wear on the bolt. God bless

Love the intro " WE NEED MORE OUTLAWS" So nice listening on the bed, good product review, I'm with Too Tall plum the line with quick disconnect kinda like a glad hand and button/controller in cab

I just picked up a shocker hitch (standard 2" receiver style) for my 1500, and towing little 8,000lb cargo trailers is super nice.

You’re like a kid playing with all his new toys!!

Thank you for the demonstration, exactly what I wanted to see before purchasing one. Your truck sounds great by the way!

I like that Camera angle for the microphone in the go pro. Lets us hear that wonderful Cummins sound :D I was on a bike ride the other day and listening all the 12v cummins trucks around here was great music to the ears.

I have been towing my horse trailer with a shocker for over a year now and its the best hitch ever.

Damn Sam just the other day you were talking about one of these and now here you are. Crazy how you can actually SEE it absorb the shock in the GoPro footage.

Sam you should hook up in cab air gauge with adjustment switch so you can adjust the air pressure on it while you're driving to make it just where you want it.

I like the idea that your not bouncing harder.lets Boone sleep more. Beautiful border collie

put on board air on the trailer plum it to the neck cordless remote to adjust it

V-Belt and SON - If I remember correctly you can go up to 100psi MAX. Once you learn your psi

you can get clip on tire fill ends for air lines. thread that onto a coiled hose to a quick disconnect on the bed deck some where on the back or on the back and you're good. hit me up if you need a walk through. have seen guys do that around here.

Man -I do like the way your shift that truck. Smooooth and no over or under reving. Kinda like you mean to keep it. I always accelerate slow and easy, no rush, and have everybody around me act like it's a drag race. I want my 145k Dodge to go 1+ million also. Congrates! You got my vote Brother. That Squish hitch seems like to "top Banana!!"

Ok , now let’s see a gen-y review, 100% unbiased review This shocker looks really good, and I agree a plumbing kit with a remote would be awesome I know how I would set that plumbing up , I bet shocker already has a patent on a system ( there is a compression compensating modulater on a TFL truck trailer review) I sure as hell wish I had a shocker hitch, when I was driving on rough corrugated ranch roads and even crappy state high way roads like New Mexico

You should review the gen-y hitch with a video comparison to the "shocker"

For the auto fill from the cab for your shocker hitch you could ziptie air hose to the 7 pin wiring to run up to the hitch and put a quick connect by the 7 pin connector at the bumper of the truck then just leave the hose with the trailer and connect the air to the bumper when you need it.

Pretty nice hitch ! I always like first for Boone 👍🏻😊🙌🏻

I Love mine as well ..... I hauled a lot of containers and took a lot of the recoil out for me as well.....next air ride on the truck then my Gooseneck

Another great review, still sounds that cold is hanging around. Hope you are feeling better and thanks for sharing👍👍👍🇺🇸

If you have time some day do an equipment/yard tour. Show the old retired gear and all things still working

Can't believe that bed cracked 😮 BRADFORD BUILT for me. I'm about to order another one for a G56 cab chassis 3500

It really needs a constant air supply and leveling valve that big trucks have on the cab and axle bags and you won't have to keep screwing with it. The leveling bar once adjusted right will keep it adjusted accordingly.

Great demonstration bro, it definitely sparked my interest 👍🏻🤔

I just bought a hydraulic tail trailer. Just about beat me to death on the way home from dealership. The tail would bounce when I hit a bump. With the safety stops in I power the tail down with the hydraulics and it made it a much better ride.

You want your 5500 to ride nicer? Put a Kelderman 4 bag system on the rear axle. I have the self leveling system on my 5500. It ride almost a nice unloaded as it does loaded. Rides better than all my old trucks even the 3/4 ton. No issues with the system either. I did my 1st big trip by doing 500+ miles in Death Valley. More than 1/2 of that was off road.

Take and run air line down the electrical cord, plumb a port near the trailer plug and you could run one of those adjustable toggles like the diamond C dude was talkin bout

So how about a review since you've owned it for over a year now. Hoping it might make towing my Rayco C-200 a little smoother.

My harbor freight weight distributing hitch came in the mail. Like yours, that box looked like it had been through world war 2

I must say, the rig sounds nice!

I am a fan of the bumper version. I would like to get this one and one for the camper. Made in North Dakota!

In cab control is easy, single way in cab control for airbags run the line to the hitch well in the bed put a air chuck on it .use a class8 fifthwheel airslide release hose from the airbag. Also put your 7way in the hole that's provided in the well and get that ugly line off the deck

I use a low pressure high flow regulator in my cab for my on the fly onboard air adjustment of my airbags. You could do the same with the Shocker. A quick disconnect near the hitch area on the flatbed. Or put a sticker in the cab of each piece of equipment with the proper Shocker pressure. That way when you load it you have the number right there. Load and pressurize.

I have a reese goose box on my 5th wheel. Its makes a world of difference

My dad and I have a shocker hitch for bumper pull trailers and they are the cats ass! Love them

I don't know..... Looks like it was flexing alot to me but I don't tow with gooseneck trailers...

Hitch is incredible! Love mine!

That right there sold me on hydraulic jacks lol

PacBrake Makes a wireless airbag controller. Mount that somewhere on the gooseneck With a pump and control it from your phone.

So you have air bags on the suspension of the truck? I have it on my dodge 3500. 35-50psi is the sweet spot loaded! You will spill your sweet tea empty! Love the channel!

Boy nothing beats the sound of a cummins

Great idea with an in cab air management for your fifth wheel and couldn’t find anything online with that idea? So after little bit more homework just go to eBay and search for 2 sensor digital air pressure gauges. I found several of them just under $50 with the sensors and the next thing you would need is a couple electronic dump valves for air. Again searching on eBay is many different options for under $20 unless you want to spend a little bit more of something you know about. Where the air fitting is on top of the bag I would put a 90° elbow to a small ball valve so you can disconnect the trailer with the bag still inflated. From that valve some kind of flexible tubing that can hold up to the weather conditions and wear and tear? Into the first T fitting for a dump valve for the purpose of deflating the bag and then into another T fitting for the pressure sensor. The final T fitting would be for your refill valve from your air supply . The second pressure sensor could be for your main air source tank? I think with all the fittings and everything you should build the do it for about $100 or so? With the digital air pressure gauge it would save you on running an airline all away to the cab. One toggle switch to turn that system on and a second toggle switch for inflating and deflating the bag. I’ve seen many air rights systems on vehicles and this is not much different than that good luck and this is only an idea which I think is a good one and thanks for another great video.

You can park any direction in your driveway you want 😁, was that a wavy to the gal on side of the road 😁👍. Shocker works.

I laughed when I saw the level of deflection on that hitch "Yah, its not going to last long at 15 PSI." How did it do with and empty trailer and the hitch at 50 PSI? The airbag looks like what would be on the cab of a tractor trailer too.

You got purdy Wife....purdy dawgs.....purdy trailer. I'm gonnna get me me one of those SHOCKERS !!

I knew you'd love the shocker hitch. I've heard good things bout gen y but I'd stick with shocker.

I got 50 psi in the Cody with 16,000 lbs. Works fine with 20 ft trailer.

air on the trailer like the guys running air ride hotshots

Nice Job Sam! Good review!!

What’s the cost buddy? Like to see what ya think when you tow the 080

Great video and awesome hitch!

What’s your favorite the gen-y or the shocker ?

On my hdt bumper pull i run my shocker hitch 24 psi empty and 28 psi loaded. Can't hardly feel the trailer back there.

Man your 5500 🤩 is awesome, that air bag too. Would it be a bad idea if you put like a cover on the air bag, as dust, rain, cold and heat won’t damage it

i think the lowest pressure u can run without having the bag bottom out will provide the best ride possible.

Where did you get it from , i like the way it works , want to get one.

Just send it ,120 psi!! Whoooo!

As you have air on board surley you could run 9 or 10 pounds unloaded and just fill her up as you add weight ? Truck ans trailer look sweeet

You should try the gen y hitch for the gooseneck. Heard they were the best

i got 3 border collies they love to ride anywhere anytime.

Cool video at first it look like the shocker hitch was going to be a snapper hitch

Just curious, do you use your clutch while shifting through the gears on any of your trucks? Wouldn't it be worth while for you to install in cab air pressure gage, to make it easier to adjust on the fly. I have air ride rear suspension as well!

Great video like always. Was curious if u had any input on torsion axles???

Love it,God Bless

How do you like the skid steer wood Prosser?

Awesome. I thought it’d help a ton 👍🏽

3 of 3 and maybe first the next day....😅

Do you still manual fill/purge the bag every time you haul something different, or did you end up just putting a quick coupler on it and leaving it hooked up?

What if u dont have that air compressor hose on your truck...what else could u use?

Do u prefer the shocker or the gen y

Also I’m getting ready to purchase a diamond c after researching them but u haul a lot of equipment as I’m going to ,, what length do you recommend with hydronic dove tail?????

You should compare to the gen y hitch!

hope to put on my Gen- y tomorrow.....might need some help... awkward and heavy ( 150 lbs ) to put on myself..Im getting a bit older to prove it to myself,lol....hope to do a review......👍🤙

How do get the on board air and also how do you install it what does it takes to get that setup

Guys guys guys...... If you ran a line from trailer (IF he had air on the trailer) you couldn't adjust from cann (DAH) All you need is a little time (I'd say 3hrs max). Parts list for inside cab: 2-way toggle switch (up=add/down=dump) 2 electric over air solenoids (1=add/1=dump) digital air gauge Parts list for outside cab: Fittings & Airline Stainless Steel quick coupler Ball valve ••••mount in easy access area (Need a BV because SS QC doesn't have a valve to stop air from escaping when uncoupled) Good luck🤙🏽🔫🇺🇸🔫🇺🇸🔫🤙🏽

I got a better idea. Semi trks have a leveling valve. What if you can hook one up on the hitch so it adjusts automatically based on whats on the trl

Did your trailer come with automatic up an down landing gear option or you had it added

So shocker or gen y?

Nice ,, how do you have your on board air set up?

Looks great. I don't like being to public about $ details but I would like to know how much you paid for your Diamond C? I want one but I think shipping it might make it out of reach. We don't have very many options out here in Hawaii and shipping can be crippling. We got a PJ dealership out here but shipping can possibly be as far out as 6 month can also get big tex and I think they might have more stock on island but we got lots of limits with everthing big getting here on the slow boat.

On my hdt bumper pull hdt my air pressure empty

Something you should try is putting music over your time lapse. Would make it a little more enjoyable

Thanks

Saludos donde estan ubicados

Can you tell me how you installed onboard air? I'd like that for my air air bags.

what is the cost of the shocker

what kind of on board air.

What kinda pump yuh have to raise your legs down on your trailer

4 yrs ago 🤯

What is the grapple on the mini ex?

Looks fun to me
