Must have addition for heavy hitch stingers
This is a simple yet genius tool that has allowed myself and spouse to be able to handle those heavy hitch stingers! This compact, ergonomic tool makes lifting and moving heavy hitch stingers a breeze. No more awkward lifting, back strain, or pinched fingers. It securely clamps onto the hitch ball, giving you a sturdy handle to safely maneuver the stinger without breaking a sweat—or your back. What I love most about the HitchGrip is how it combines safety and ease of use for everyone—whether you’re a man or a woman. It takes the strain and awkwardness out of handling heavy hitches, making the process safer and more manageable for all. Whether you're hitching or unhitching an RV or travel trailer, this tool ensures you can do it confidently and without worry. It takes a little finessing to figure out how to get the clamp just right on the ball, but after a few times it's a breeze! For reference we have 2 hitches - Curt and Husky with 2 5/16 hitch ball(s) and works on both!

Makes inserting a hitch a lot easier, and safer
Works remarkably well! I have a heavy hitch assembly that incorporates connections for a trailer load leveling system, and the whole thing is a big, heavy and poorly balanced hunk of metal. Getting it installed on my pickup truck was always a pain - literally, a pain in my back. This device allows me to easily pick up the hitch assembly with one hand and guide it into the hitch receiver on the truck. It balances the load, making the whole process a lot easier. Highly recommended.

Works great!
I bought this several years ago and use it every time I install or remove my heavy WDH hitch head. It balances the weight well, and I can carry the hitch head with one hand.

Works well
A good tool for grabbing and moving your high head. Latches on easy and reduces your contact with the greasy bits.

Great tool
This tool is a great idea! Made a 2 handed job and one hand job no pun intended. it is simple but look at the instructions. You actually use it backwards until the hitch is in the receiver. Then you pivot it around for pin alignment. Note: Amazons Portland fulfillment center needs to get some training on how to pack things. This large tool along with a few other things were just tossed all together into a PAPER, large envelope. No packing material or anything! This should have been in a box! The envelope was completely torn all over the place and I was actually surprised that nothing had fallen out. What person would put large tools into a paper bag and ship them? Obviously someone that needs a new job and doesn't have a clue about proper materials management practices!

Grip handle
Works great especially if you're installing and removing the hitch with one hand. It is well made and at a good price and fast shipping I would buy again if needed

100% Recommend
Perfect tool for handling a heavy trailer hitch. I have a very heavy weight distribution hitch, and this tool has been a game changer. Perfect for removing, installing, or carrying my big, clunky hitch. Allows for easy two-handed lifting, and keeps my hands away from the grease and grime. 100% recommend.
