About This Product
The SPARTAN Torsion-Flex gooseneck with SnapLatch coupler is designed to create maximum comfort for the driver. This revolutionary gooseneck hitch utilizes the innovative design of TORSION-FLEX technology which isolates the truck from the trailer creating a much smoother, safer, and more enjoyable towing experience.
The SPARTAN is designed to be used with flatbed, utility, and enclosed gooseneck trailers, and it will give you the best-cushioned ride on the market. Hotshot customers who tow flatbed gooseneck trailers on a daily basis have reported fuel savings and decreased tire wear due to the TORSION-FLEX Technology.
The SPARTAN coupler is taller than a standard coupler, so it is important to measure the distance from the bottom of your current coupler to the retaining pin.
SnapLatch Coupler
The SnapLatch Coupler, featured on the SPARTAN gooseneck, is designed to be the safest coupler on the market. Its self-latching design ensures a proper connection each time you connect to a trailer. It is easy and simple to install and resets for an easy hookup each time.

This is a must-have for heavy hauling

We log a lot of miles responding to disasters with fleet of shower and bunk trailers. We absolutely love of our Gen-Y Torsion hitches, both gooseneck and bumper pull. Softer ride, more control, and less abuse on trucks and trailers. We even have contract drivers (hot-shots) that request the “big hitch” when we call them to help us out.

if you own a nice trailer, owning a nice coupler makes perfect sence, The Spartan is very strong and a huge upgrade, I take this one off and use it on 2 other trailers,

Great build quality. Nice ride improvement but not sure its worth $975.
Biggest issue is the lack of coupler sizes. I am shocked that they only make 4in round. Trailers have 13 15/16,4,and 4 1/16. If u have the smaller as i do on my load max 2016 trailer u have to force the coupler in. I had to use a jack to force it in. That destroyed the paint on the shaft so now even if i wanted to i couldnt return it!
For $ 975 5x the cost of a standard coupler i expect more knowledgeable people.

I have been using hitch for about 2 weeks on my gooseneck and notice a great difference in the ride. The huge down side is hooking up trailer with the safety pin instead of a quick latch horrible experience. Gen Y sure can do better than that so thats why i would currently not recommend this.
Jim Rogers (verified owner) –
The Spartan should be the standard hitch used by all trailer manufacturers. Can’t believe the difference in ride quality. Well worth the money!

I like the hitch, but they need to make it less tall, we had to block our trailer as this adds a good 4″ of hight on the neck even when all the way up. Other than that, does for sure make a smoother ride
