Frequently Asked Questions:
Q - I have heard that the Swivel Hitches cause trailers to 'fish-tail'. True or False? A - In developing our Swivel Hitch option we discovered this with the Horizontal Sleeve type. The determined cause being the trailer's tongue was not level enough. Using the correct selection of Swivel Hitch that attaches the trailer's tongue on level is the solution for this. We provide a selection from Offset-Down 1" to Offset Up 3", on the 'Shopping Cart' webpage for these models.
Q - Are you providing a Swivel Hitch for the 'vertical' sleeve hitches ? A - Yes, our (2) Vertical Sleeve (hidden) Hitch Mount options, Chrome and Powder-coated, are now in stock. And we see that it serves well in it's use with pulling the light cargo trailer class. Please specify if you are using the 'Kuryaken', 'Hitchdoc' or 'Bushtec' brand Vertical 'hidden' Sleeve Hitch, when ordering.
Q - What is a factor which would make your Swivel Hitch design more desirable for me? A - Purchasing (1) Swivel Hitch for life, instead of a specific device per trailer. The (1) goes with all.

Q - What do I need a Swivel-Hitch for, when my ball hitch works fine? A - It's not a perfect world out there. There are some parking lots and gas stations which are not on the same plane as the road you are merging onto. This has caused binding with pulling trailers with motorcycles.
