The MEGA-DUTY Bolt-On Adjustable Hitch

The GEN-Y MEGA-DUTY Bolt-On Adjustable Hitch is a bolt-on drop hitch built for dump trucks, custom truck beds, semis, and other heavy-duty custom applications rather than a standard factory receiver. It's rated for 16,000, 21,000, or 32,000 pounds of towing capacity depending on the receiver size and configuration selected, and adjusts through a 2.5 to 9 inch drop or rise range. It's available as an adjustable receiver only, or with a dual-ball mount and optional pintle lock.

The MEGA-DUTY Bolt-On Adjustable Hitch is designed to be welded or bolted directly onto a dump truck bed, custom truck bed, semi frame, or other fabricated application, rather than sliding into a factory-installed receiver tube like GEN-Y's standard drop hitches. It shares the same drop-and-rise adjustability and towing capacity tiers as GEN-Y's receiver-mounted hitches, but suits commercial and fabrication use cases where a bolt-on mounting point makes more sense than a receiver hitch.

The MEGA-DUTY Bolt-On Adjustable Hitch is rated for 16,000, 21,000, or 32,000 pounds of towing capacity, depending on which receiver size and configuration you select. Tongue weight also varies by configuration; for example, the 16,000 pound model with a 2.5 inch drop carries a 2,000 pound tongue weight rating. Check the specific variant you're ordering for its exact tongue weight rating, and remember that tow capacity is limited by the lowest-rated component in your full towing setup.

The MEGA-DUTY Bolt-On Adjustable Hitch is available in a 2 inch receiver for the 16,000 pound configuration, and a 2.5 inch receiver for both the 21,000 pound and 32,000 pound configurations. This differs from GEN-Y's standalone 32K Drop Hitch, which also offers a 3 inch receiver option; the bolt-on version's 32K configuration is only available with a 2.5 inch receiver.

The MEGA-DUTY Bolt-On Adjustable Hitch adjusts through a 2.5 to 9 inch drop or rise range, with four fixed drop options: 2.5 inches with 2 adjustable positions, 6 inches with 3 positions, 7.5 inches with 4 positions, and 9 inches with 4 positions. Choose the drop size that best matches the height difference between your mounting point and your trailer coupler.

The MEGA-DUTY Bolt-On Adjustable Hitch is available three ways: as an adjustable receiver only with no ball mount, with a dual-ball mount included, or with a dual-ball mount and pintle lock included. The dual-ball mount includes both a 2 inch and a 2 5/16 inch ball. Choose the adjustable-receiver-only option if you plan to use your own ball mount or attachment instead.

Use a 2 5/16 inch ball for pintle ring towing, not the 2 inch ball, consistent with GEN-Y's guidance across its MEGA-DUTY and BOSS hitch lines. If you select the dual-ball mount and pintle lock configuration, both ball sizes are included, but only the 2 5/16 inch ball is intended for pintle ring applications.

Yes. The MEGA-DUTY Bolt-On Adjustable Hitch is manufactured in the United States from heavy duty steel, sand blasted and finished with a durable silver-vein powder coat for corrosion resistance. It's backed by a limited lifetime warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship, and is tested to exceed SAE J684 weight testing requirements.

The base MEGA-DUTY Bolt-On Adjustable Hitch (part number GH-102) weighs 16 pounds in its lightest configuration. Weight increases with higher towing capacity configurations and added components like a dual-ball mount or pintle lock, so check the specific variant you're ordering for its exact shipping weight, since a 32,000 pound configuration with a pintle lock weighs meaningfully more than the base 16,000 pound adjustable-receiver-only version.
