About This Product
The Hensley BD3-F TrailerSaver is an 18,000-pound air-ride fifth wheel hitch for Ford trucks with the factory OE puck system. It uses an air spring to absorb road impacts, delivering a smoother ride than rigid hitches.
The air spring compresses and rebounds to absorb bumps and rough roads before that motion transfers into your trailer. Less jarring means less wear on your RV and more comfort for everyone inside.
The TrailerSaver drops directly into your Ford bed pucks without a separate adapter. The 18,000-pound rating works well for mid-size fifth wheel trailers.
Hensley makes this hitch in the USA with heavy-duty construction. The air-ride technology is what separates it from conventional hitches.
