I have had a McHitch for years. Also OZ made (Lithgow) and they have full articulation. They are the easiest of all hitches to hook up to. Have a look at their web site - they have videos showing how it all works.

 

Do you have a web site or contacts for OZ made (Lithgow)? Are they the people who fitted the McHitch?

 

We have the McHitch also. I am now becoming very proficient with hitch/un-hitch procedure. And I find it much easier than a standard hitch, especially when hitching on my own.

 

The Oz Glide has a twin shock setup incorporated in the hitch. I haven't seen anything like that in the McHitch . Is there something I'm missing?

 

No...not at all.
There is a plethora of hitches available, each of them claim to do something better than (most) others.
My comment was to provide further feedback on the simplicity of the McHitch when it comes to coupling/de-coupling.
I am sure the Oz Glide has some worthwhile features as well. I chose the McHitch because I saw it in operation, a friend has one on his Touareg and it ticked all the boxes for me.

 

Yep - that's it Steve. I have tried a number of hitches on a variety of cars / 4WDs and caravans / camper trailers and the McHitch works for me. Try this web site:

@Steve_L the guy parked up next to me at Neergabby recently had an OZ glide on his Manhattan van / Touareg. He seemed happy with it.
(Sorry I cannot recall his name)

 

yep...that was Rick

 

Ok, so now I’ve had the OzGlide fitted & I’ve travelled 1,000 klms with the OzGlide fitted towing my 3t semi off-road van. About 300 klm was over some pretty ordinary sealed & unsealed roads, ones that I had travelled over 12 months ago. There was a significant ride improvement with the OzGlide fitted, so much so that my partner thought the roads had been resealed (they hadn’t).
