The Gen-Y Spartan Torsion-Flex Gooseneck Coupler (GH-7042) is engineered for haulers who want a smoother, safer, and more controlled towing experience. Built around Gen-Y’s proven TORSION-FLEX technology, the Spartan isolates the truck from the trailer, dramatically reducing shock, vibration, and road stress transferred through the hitch.

The result? A noticeably smoother ride, improved stability, and less abuse on your truck, trailer, tires, and cargo. Hotshot drivers and daily haulers report reduced tire wear, improved ride quality, and even fuel savings thanks to the reduction in harsh impacts and trailer bounce.

Designed for flatbed, utility, horse, gooseneck trailers, the Spartan delivers one of the best-cushioned towing experiences on the market. It’s built tough for real-world work, yet refined enough to make long hauls less fatiguing and more controlled.

SnapLatch Coupler – Safer, Easier Hookups

The Spartan features Gen-Y’s SnapLatch Coupler, a self-latching system designed to make every hookup simple, fast, and secure. The coupler automatically locks onto the ball, helping ensure a proper connection every time without guesswork. It resets easily for repeat use and adds an extra layer of safety compared to traditional couplers.
