Hyland Hitches, how good are they?.

Daza,
I’ve heard the same thing but mine fit straight onto the standard ball I had on the Cruiser. The hitch just clears the tongue. I highly recommend them.

Over 5 years with one and not a problem in that time.

A great hitch!

hey mate....i have been looking at this one OZHITCH ,seems really easy to hook up,cheers.

Have had a Hyland for 3 years on my camping trailer and I reckon it is the best hitch I have ever used. Ease of hookup and articulation are great.
You have to use the long ball or it bottoms out before locking. You can put a spacer under the ball about 1/16th or 1/8th of an inch but easier to buy a tall ball.

Been using mine for a bit over 12 months on a 2300kg Tare van - trouble free to date - hooking up takes a bit of practice but I'm good at it now :-o). If the cup snags the tongue while turning, they can tend to turn and loosen the ball, but once set up right, there seems no issue. A brand new, 3.5t rated long shank ball is relatively cheap - our van supplier just packed it up with a couple of fat washers to ensure the required tongue clearance.

Been really happy with the one on our Kanga. Tens of thousands of problem free km.

The bloke who owned the Kanga briefly before us didn't realise they had an top & bottom to the U holding the receiver. Lucky he never took it off the bitumen.

The bottom has notches to clear the tongue when the trailer articulates below the level of the back wheels of the tow vehicle.

ie. when you drive up and over something and turn at the same time.
