Why should I purchase a cushion hitch vs. a spring loaded hitch?
Spring loaded hitches, unlike cushion hitches, are built to a pre-determined load. When that load is insufficient or exceeded, the spring does not function properly. They either do not work at all, or they bottom out. In the initial stages of compression, Schuck Cushion Hitches will cushion the lightest of loads, yet in the final stages of compression will feather our loads in excess of 600 bushels, or 40,000 lbs.
