Left AirSafe for a ProPride hitch last year. After one season sold the ProPride came back to my Class 5 AirSafe. A more solid and smoother ride. Quality product. L. Santoro

I Purchased the air safe newly redesigned class 4 Hitch to initially to my 22 foot aluminum tilt bed car hauler trailer. Initially the trailer is so light I felt every bump in the road and no matter what I tried to soften the ride empty or loaded to no avail. After the initial setting of air pressure words cannot describe how amazing this product is I will never tell without it it is absolutely wonderful and worth every cent. Such a quality product very detailed construction and such a robust looking product!! In short this product is absolutely amazing thank you so much for the help in helping me choose the right hitch . Mitch Southern

Just a note to let you folks know that I installed the Airsafe hitch, which was quite easy, only having to make one adjustment to get the height correct. Good instructions. Took a 600 mile round trip into the West Virginia mountains which involved both interstate and gravel road portions.NEVER have I had such a comfortable ride for both my truck and Airstream. I am a fan of the system, as is my wife.

Good job, and thanks. George “Sandy” Browder

“First thank you for your service in getting the hitch to Port Orford before we had to leave and your aid in installing it on my F350.B & I drove from Port Orford OR to Fort Stevens on Hwy 101 on the Oregon coast, which is a hilly winding road built in the 1930’s. It is not as bad as I5 coming out of LA (that was when we decided that we would try your hitch!!), but it has many rough spots. What impressed us the most was the improvement of comfort on the smoother portions of the road. The Air Safe combined with the Equalizer hitch I had been using let me relax and enjoy one of the most beautiful drives in the USA.After using it less than 300 miles, I would not “leave home without it” when I am driving my 34′ Airstream Excella or any other trailer.I will be recommending it to all who ask “What is that funny looking hitch?.Best Wishes for your continued success,”

“I bought an AirSafe Hitch from you in May (I think that was the time frame) anyway, it was a Class 5. I have a F-450, a Lance 992 truck camper, a Torklift SuperHitch with a 24in extension truss and that’s what the AirSafe Hitch connects to. I then added a Reese weight distribution system (after getting your weight distribution bracket) and to this is a 28ft Pace American enclosed auto hauler. This carries my 1984 Toyota Landcruiser which just recently passed the 300,000 mile mark almost all driven by myself. I bought it new in October of 1984 with 8 miles on it.After buying the AirSafe Hitch, I did what every skeptic does, I hooked up all the above WITHOUT the AirSafe Hitch and got out on the road. I was in Austin, Texas so I took a spin on MoPac (one of two major north-south arteries) and full of bumps and the usual ups and downs of US freeways. I was surprised at how much jerking and yanking was going on behind me.So on the evening of my departure I thought, well hopefully it can’t be any worse with the AirSafe than it was without it. I left Austin at around 9pm on a Sunday evening and arrived in Colorado Springs around 2pm the following day. I was fairly surprised at how well the AirSafe worked. I’ll admit there were moments when in the middle of some highway construction project that I was bounced around a little but there were many more times when I would hit some bump and notice the trailer bouncing up and down but there was not the accompanying jerk to the truck and of course the transmission.I’ll tell you this, I was pretty impressed. I had more than one truck pass me and in the middle of doing so…they slowed down and I could see them pointing to the hitch. I can’t answer the question for anyone else as to whether this is “worth it” but for me….had I spent those 1,000 miles being jerked back and forth and bounced up and down, I would probably be replacing something in the F-450 not to mention spending some time in treatment to fix this old man’s body. I arrived in pretty good condition, as did my trailer, my truck and my Landcruiser. Lloyd, I’ll pass this along as my recommendation – a guy in a truck stop outside Abilene walked up to me, and it was in the early morning hours, and looked at the hitch, pushed back his cap, scratched his head and said, “that makes sense”.Thanks.”

“Medium Duty Receiver and Weight Dist System. Actually, the hitch performed quite well during the whole trip. Driving distance was about 375 miles, but much of it was on dirt roads and bumpy areas. If you have a map of Arizona, we went up I-17 to I-40 where we averaged about 65 miles an hour. We went faster in places and slower in places. Going west on I-40 to Williams, we then took the little windy (Perkinsville) road south from Williams to a mountain/forest area. We then took a dirt road approximately 12 miles into where we set up camp near White Horse lake.Going back, we drove the 12 miles dirt road back to the blacktop road going south out of Williams (Perkinsville). We took it south about 20 miles then onto another dirt road (10 miles) and over (west) to route 89. We took it south through Prescott, Yarnell, Wickenburg and into Phoenix. The road from Prescott to Wickenburg was paved but very windy and “high” up … down the mountains. The speed limit on it was 20MPH for about 20 miles.The “feel” was a little smoother than with ordinary hitches. There were a few times that I started to get an oscillation between the truck and trailer following a bump but it was dampened out immediately by the hitch. There was not a “big” difference in feel, but definitely a “smoother” pull and it did stop the oscillations (bouncing back and forth between truck and trailer) right away.There were no problems with the hitch. We did have a problem with the electrical cord falling out of the bumper socket due to the bumpy (and washboard) roads. But the hitch performed flawlessly.”

“Here are the pictures I told you about. These were taken somewhere along the Alcan Highway. We hit a lot of snow on the way north. They put sand and gravel on the road for traction so your truck and trailer take a real pounding. The hitch really got hammered. All I had to do was keep the tie rods lubricated and that was it. The unit performed flawlessly for the entire trip.”

“I just finished a 5500-mile cross-country trip with a new 14000 LB GVW Air Hitch on my F-250 Powerstroke pulling my 28-foot travel trailer, and the Air Hitch worked as advertised…which means very well indeed!It was money very well spent…an investment in comfort for me and durability for my truck and trailer.The Air Hitch did smooth out the potholes and railroad track crossings. It did dampen the rock-and-roll concrete expansion joints and otherwise damaged road surfaces found on too many highways. It did help isolate and help make independent the relatively harsh suspension of the F250 from the softer torsion-bar suspension of the trailer so that each could do the respective job it was intended to do without interfering with the other. In other words, it did make the ride much better for both the truck, the trailer, and all the respective contents, including the passengers.I like the feel of the truck/trailer connection riding on soft air rather than hard steel, and the view in the mirror of the trailer reacting independently to harsh road conditions in the way that serves it best without undue interference from the tow vehicle, and vice versa.When I see 18-wheelers with the sign “Air Ride” on their trailers, I think, “Me Too.”Thanks for making such a great product.”

“Lloyd, we completed our first trip with the new hitch. I have to say I was quite impressed. While it did not eliminate the bouncing effect caused by perfectly spaced saw cuts in the concrete, it did lessen the effect considerably. That is something that will probably never go away with the truck/trailer combination… the “perfect storm”. What I was most impressed with was when I would pull in or out of a driveway, or drive over any significant bumps, I would only feel the truck, not the trailer. Don’t get me wrong, I can surely notice 6000# behind me, but when the trailer axle hit the bump, it did not move the truck. Lastly, the effect of driver fatigue was a complete shock. I thought it was just a bunch of marketing hype. But, I was amazed at how much less stress there was with this hitch in place.

I suspect in about 30 years I’ll need a small crane to help mount the hitch on my truck. But for now, my back is strong and I won’t pull my trailer without it.

Thanks again for a great product. And, the sleeping kids in the back thank you as well.”

“I just completed moving a 37′ boat from Little Rock, AR to Homer, Alaska using your hitch. It was moved with a Chev Kodiak 5500 and used your class 7 2” receiver unit. I have never moved anything that heavy for that distance that I didn’t feel as if I had been beaten up every day, that is before using your hitch.The Air ride hitch is an absolute must have if you are towing a heavy load over a long haul. It is virtually unbelievable how much it smoothes out the road and completely eliminates the “rocking horse” after road bumps. I will never again tow a load without using the Air Ride. I initially had thought the hitch was pretty expensive, but after using it, I think it is very cheap. The amount of road stress it eliminates on the driver has to be experienced to be appreciatedThanks for a great product.”

“I have been really busy racing and showing my Monster Truck all over the country! I just got back from Texas 24-hour drive with your hitch in place, it was a pleasant drive once again! Thank you sincerely for your great product, it makes my life much nicer and the long drives more fun. I drove to Roswell New Mexico last month for a race, I blew a rod right out both sides of the Monster Trucks engine, after only three passes. I collected only $2,500 in pay and the overall trip and damage came to $9,500 The only good about that trip was the Air Hitch and the fact that my rig will last longer than ever expected because of your hitch! I am extremely happy with my Air Hitch and I still have not had to tighten any of the bolts and the overall appearance of my hitch is still perfect! Approximately100,000 miles now. I will keep in touch, thanks again”

” I purchased an air ride hitch from your company recently. The first trip me and my wife went on was from North Carolina / Virginia state line to Myrtle Beach SC. You’re hitch was amazing, The road’s along this section are notorious for being rough and bumpy. You’re hitch made the trip so much more enjoyable. When we arrived I wasn’t tired or worn out from the rough ride. I purchased the medium duty hitch, at first I was skeptical about the cost but I will tell anyone who asks the cost was money well spent. “

My hitch is still working awesome, I have been using it almost every weekend going to a truck show, race or even just towing my dirt bikes to the desert for some fun. Thanks again for the great product you make, your hitch is adding years to the life of my trailers and related components. Talk to ya soon, Frank Schettini Pro Comp Tire Monster TrucksHey Lloyd, thank’s a million! We used the hitch with one vehicle around town there in Vegas, then towed home with it. Then another truck used it to go back to Vegas with my big trailer, to pick up and tow another big truck home. Everyone that did any of the driving LOVED the hitch. I especially liked it behind the F-350 Ford Super Duty towing the Monster Truck, it worked great on the freeway overpasses liked I expected it too,,,, but where I was really impressed was the cushion over speed bumps in parking lots.. It used to go BANG over speed bumps, now it is smooth and better than when not towing as well. I will resize all of the photos taken and send them to you. I am about to be late to meet someone so I will get back to you soon, and yes I am about to use the hitch rite now, I have the trailer empty and hooked up, Thank’s again Frank”

“With this hitch I am in the state of happiness.”

Roy Wilkens

“Yes you can use my name and state. Also it improved the ride enough that our family traveler sleeps on the back seat of the truck (picture of MisTea inside our T.T. at a camp-site. Thank You for your service.”

Phil Bruner

“Here’s a photo of my truck hitched to our 27 ft. Airstream, ready to go on our latest camping adventure. The hitch is a medium duty Advance Air Hitch which makes traveling a whole lot more comfortable, especially on these rough concrete interstates.”

Bill Howell

“The tractor, a 1942 Silver King, maxis out the weight limit (4500#) on my truck(2000 Dodge Dakota Quad).The hitch makes it ride like a Cadillac. It performs just as advertised. Can’t imagine ever pulling a trailer with out an AirRide Hitch. Well worth the cost.”

Stephen Wolf

“I´ll send you a picture of my big truck and horse trailer, the air ride sure helps the horses ride better and not as tried when you get somewhere with them. The picture will come in another email.”
