Using GEN-Y's patented TORSION-FLEX technology, the SPARTAN absorbs up to 90% of the shock and vibration that would otherwise transfer directly between the truck and trailer. The result is a noticeably smoother, safer towing experience - with real-world benefits including reduced tire wear, less cargo fatigue, and improved fuel economy that hotshot drivers and daily haulers report consistently.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe GH-7042 features GEN-Y's SnapLatch coupler - a self-latching system that automatically locks onto the gooseneck ball each time for a fast, secure, and repeatable hookup without manual clamping or guesswork. It comes ready to install with the GH-098 pin and pull rod included. The SPARTAN is taller than a standard coupler, so it's important to confirm ground clearance on your trailer before ordering. Made in the USA and backed by a 5-year warranty on rubber components plus a limited lifetime warranty on all other parts, the GH-7042 is built for serious, long-term gooseneck towing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GEN-Y Hitch","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53468699656511,"sku":"GENGH-7042","price":856.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0832\/7308\/9343\/files\/0de8d493b0c7f956979f4a07cfe2d9bcL.jpg?v=1780180867","url":"https:\/\/wcaperformance.com\/products\/gen-y-spartan-torsion-flex-5in-offset-4in-rd-tube-gooseneck-2-5-16in-coupler-standard-height","provider":"WCA Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
