In agriculture, construction and even military applications, pintle hitches are the trusted product of specialized towing. They are notorious for their high weight capacity and simple design. The basic pintle hitch is essentially a hook and loop, with the hook attached to the vehicle and the loop mounted on the trailer. Because of their simple design, pintle hitches are able to have thicker metal construction and more secure coupling. CURT has a wide variety of pintle hitches and pintle-style products to give you a complete solution for your heavy-duty towing needs. This pintle mount bolt kit is designed for the pintle hook #48231 and is required to reach 60,000 pounds gross trailer weight. It includes all of the necessary hardware for a secure installation and can easily be removed and reinstalled for convenient height adjustment of the pintle hook or pintle ball combination.

Before towing, ensure all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. Never tow with worn or damaged parts. Attach the trailer securely to safety chain loops. Maintain adequate tongue load to properly control the trailer (approximately 10%) without exceeding ratings. For off-road applications, reduce the rated capacities by 25%. Support the rear of the trailer to avoid load shift when loading or unloading.
Maintain adequate tongue load to properly control the trailer at approximately 10% of the total trailer weight, without exceeding the product's rated capacity.

Vehicle performance (braking, handling, acceleration, turning radius) can be drastically affected by towing a trailer. Allow additional time and space for stopping, changing lanes, passing, and turning. Do not tow more than one trailer at a time. Severe bumps can damage the towing system; avoid or drive slowly over rough terrain. Do not damage the latch, and be particularly careful with the drawbar when coupling and uncoupling. Consult DOT regulations and American Trucking Association for complete towing procedures.
Periodically check the towing system to ensure all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. Clean and lubricate moving parts regularly to ensure proper function.
No. Do not tow more than one trailer at a time.
