McHitch is really easy to hook up, even for a woman driver. 

All our friends who have trailers use McHitch.

In USA, the customers are interested in McHitch, please check https://mchitch.us/ or https://www.facebook.com/share/g/19gcQbjk6f/?mibextid=K35XfP

That is a typical European/Australian trailer hitches. They work with smaller trailers that are well balanced fore and aft as it is not a heavy load bearing hitch and is not a weight distribution hitch. Here it could (if it is truly DOT certified) be used on teardrops, smaller popups and some small lightweight travel trailers.


Never seen one in Europe. They typically use a ball style, just the shank is typically curved and permanently bolted on rather than the receiver style you see in N. America.

Wouldn't a hitch for heavy trailers need a way to distribute weight?

Yes. European lightweight Caravans do not have WDH. Australian and American do

In a word no. It is used for much heavier Caravans. Black series sold in the US would be example
Our 23' Kedron ATV weighs in at 4.2 tonne or 9259lbs, with the capacity of the 6 tonne or 13227lbs McHitch makes it legal, safe and a pleasure to tow

Out of curiosity, what is the coupling for? Just looking at it, is it a fully articulated coupling for off-road use with lighter pull-behind trailers?
