Replacement Hitch Pin

The GEN-Y Replacement Hitch Pin is available in 5/8 inch or 3/4 inch diameter, with usable lengths of 3.5 inches, 4 inches, 4.5 inches, or 5.5 inches depending on the SKU selected. Each pin includes a self-locking twist clip and is fabricated from stainless steel. Choose the diameter and length that match your specific hitch and receiver combination before ordering.

It depends on your hitch's capacity. GEN-Y's 10K, 16K, and 21K hitches use a 5/8 inch pin. The 32K hitch uses a 3/4 inch pin for its full 32,000-pound rating; using a 5/8 inch pin in a 32K hitch's alternate pinhole derates it to 21,000 pounds. Check your specific hitch model's specifications before ordering a replacement pin, since using the wrong diameter can limit your towing capacity.

Each GEN-Y Replacement Hitch Pin includes a self-locking twist clip, so no separate cotter pin or clip purchase is needed. The pin itself is fabricated from stainless steel for corrosion resistance. It's sold as a standalone replacement part and does not include a hitch, ball mount, or other towing hardware.

The GEN-Y Replacement Hitch Pin fits standard 2-inch and 2.5-inch truck receivers, matching the receiver sizes used across GEN-Y's MEGA-DUTY and BOSS hitch lines. The ¾ inch model fits standard 3-inch truck receivers. Confirm both the pin diameter and usable length needed for your specific hitch model, since receiver size alone doesn't determine which pin variant is correct.

The GEN-Y Replacement Hitch Pin is fabricated from stainless steel, chosen for its resistance to rust and corrosion during outdoor towing use. Stainless construction holds up to repeated insertion and removal without excessive wear compared to lower-grade steel pins, and each pin is backed by GEN-Y's limited lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects.

Yes. The GEN-Y Replacement Hitch Pin is manufactured in the United States from stainless steel and includes a self-locking twist clip. It's backed by GEN-Y's limited lifetime warranty, consistent with the warranty coverage across GEN-Y's hitch lineup, giving buyers the same manufacturing quality assurance as the hitches the pins are designed to fit.

The GEN-Y Replacement Hitch Pin weighs approximately 1 pound across all diameter and length variants. Because it's a small standalone stainless steel component rather than a full hitch assembly, weight doesn't meaningfully change between the 5/8 inch and 3/4 inch diameter options or the different usable lengths offered.

Usable length depends on how much material the pin needs to pass through on your specific hitch and ball mount stack, not on towing capacity. GEN-Y offers 3.5 inch, 4 inch, 4.5 inch, and 5.5 inch usable lengths. If you're replacing a lost or damaged pin, match the length of your original pin, or check your hitch's product page for the specific pin length it ships with.
