The Advanced Air Ride Hitch System uses
heavy duty air bags to absorb the shock,
bounce and vibration that usually come
when pulling an RV or tow vehicle with
a hard connection hitch. Sliding up and
down on solid steel tracks, assisted by
space age composites for smooth fluid
movement, the Advanced Air Rid Hitch allows
the trailer to rock back and forth on
its natural axis. Every receiver hitch
comes with a standard bracket that allows
ball height to adjust up of down 4 inches.

Air Hitch, Inc. 1549 Sand Bar Ferry Rd.,
