Anyone for Air?

Posted by RV Doctor
I’ve been looking into air ride hitches. I have GMC dually and a 30-foot 5th wheel travel trailer. I am looking for a safer, smoother ride while towing.
Some of the road surfaces jerk the trailer so much it seems like something will break. I’ve seen variations from $1000-$2200. Do they really work? Is it worth the money?

Though I do not have direct experience towing a fifth-wheel, Joe, I have studied many of the accessories and add-ons available. I have looked closely at the Trailair Air Ride pin box and am impressed with its design. I have spoken at length with the president of the company and feel this is one that may actually work quite well. It certainly warrants a closer look. But only you can make the subjective decision as to whether it will be cost effective though. Check them out at: www.trailair.com.
