I switched from a PullRite 2600 single point (gooseneck ball) to the Reese Goosebox. I kept having slamming issues with the PullRite. Every stop it slammed, stopping and starting. I first thought it was caused by failure of the MorRyde rubber block in the pinbox. Examined the rubber block, looked OK. Replaced the 18,000# rubber block with a 21,000# block. No difference.
Replaced that with the Reese Goosebox. Problem solved. ZERO slamming.
I think the slamming was caused by tolerance stack up in the PullRite. There are too many connection points with tolerances that add up to too much.
I am happy with the Goosebox but it does have some issues. Sometimes i can get the hitch right on top of the ball, other times it may take several tries. Also, I am right on the 4,000# pin capacity. This is the most pin capacity they make.
I sometimes wish I had bought a GEN-Y.
