Happy New Year and welcome to 2024! Let’s be honest, your towing setup is probably rusted and worn down, meaning you’re due for an upgrade. Now is the perfect time to enhance your towing setup and ensure a smoother, more efficient hauling experience with the challenge of winter ahead.

We have hand-picked five top of the line products that will elevate your towing capabilities and provide you with peace of mind on the road. Between ball mounts, hitch balls, hitch pin and clips, locks and ball mount kits, Rigid Hitch carries the best brands on the market. Whether you’re a seasoned professional or a casual weekend adventurer, these upgrades are essential for your safety.

 

Ball Mounts

First up on our list of necessary upgrades are ball mounts!

An upgraded ball mount ensures a secure and stable connection between your trailer and your vehicle. Therefore, reducing the risk of accidents such as trailer sway and detachment. Investing in a reliable and upgraded ball mount not only enhances towing performance but significantly contributes to overall road safety by preventing accidents and maintaining control over your trailer during transportation.

We carry the most reliable brands of ball mounts including Rigid Hitch, Curt, Blue Ox, B&W and Draw-Tite.

Hitch Balls

You can’t have an upgraded ball mount without an upgraded hitch ball!

This spherical ball is to be mounted on your ball mount, providing a secure point of attachment. In order to achieve maximum safety, your hitch ball needs to match the size of your ball mount. So, don’t forget to select the right sizes for a perfect combination of safe and efficient towing.

If your hitch ball has rust on it, listen up! Rusty hitch balls pose a significant danger to your towing setup. Rust will compromise the structural integrity and strength of your towing connection, making your hitch ball unable to withstand the stress and force exerted during the towing process. Rust will weaken the metal on your hitch ball over time, which will lead to cracks, fractures or a complete failure.

Hitch Pins and Clips

Next up on the list of products to upgrade are your hitch pins and clips! This small but mighty product is super inexpensive to replace, so don’t take any chances on safety.

Hitch pins and clips contribute to the overall stability and control of the towing setup. By keeping the ball mount securely attached to the hitch receiver, these components help maintain a consistent and predictable towing experience. This is especially important when navigating turns, bumps, or uneven terrain, as a secure connection enhances the handling and control of the entire rig.

Do you see a tiny crack in your hitch pins or hitch clips and think it’s no big deal? It is a big deal! Over time, the crack in the hitch pin or clip can propagate and expand, especially when subjected to repeated stress during towing. If the crack progresses to the point of complete breakage, the towing connection may fail, resulting in the detachment of the trailer from the towing vehicle.

Rigid Hitch carries the best brands for this necessary upgrade, including Buyers, Bulldog and Let’s Go Aero!

Locks

Don’t forget about locks! After you spend quality time and money upgrading your trailer, you need to ensure your investment is safe and secure.

A properly secured hitch lock serves as a deterrent against theft, preventing unauthorized individuals from tampering with or attempting to detach your trailer from the towing vehicle. Additionally, trailer locks provide peace of mind during stops or when leaving your trailer unattended, safeguarding your valuable cargo. Go out and have fun camping or hiking with your family and friends, while not having to worry about the safety of your items!

We carry amazing lock brands such as Deadbolt, Trimax, Master Lock and Baylock.
