Thought Id seen this sort of thing before .. Wondering if GOJEEP had anything to do with this new OZGLIDE unit .. Something he fabed up years ago .http://gojeep.willyshotrod.com/HowtoAirbaghitch.htm

Apart from a bit more weight right at the hitch end of the draw bar, The worst that can happen is you loose the air and the hitch reverts back to a normal unflexible type ..

What would be good to see is some side on footage of with and without to see if it actually makes any difference to the rest of the tow vehicle.

I have seen the video's of the drawbar moving independently to the tug but would like to see a side on view to see if this actually makes much difference to the overall ride.

I would think , It would still have to give the trailer a smoother ride and take a lot of stress off the tug

I would think so too, but a side on comparison would be a minimum I would post up if it was my business and it worked well, would more than likely post up the output of a shock meter as well to prove what difference it made.
