Daystar Silent Hitch – Eliminate Unibody Hitch Noise

Rattle And Hmmmm…

All apologies to U2, but I wouldn’t Josh(ua tree) ya.  There is a way to tow or carry bikes using equipment mounted to the hitch on unibody vehicles that wont rattle your fillings out.  Big surprise, it comes from Daystar Products. The always innovating manufacturer from Arizona created the Silent Hitch to solve an annoying problem, and put the fun back in our weekends.

Real Answers

Some companies come out with products that answer questions that no one ever asked.  They solve nonexistent problems. The Slap Chop, for example… Who really has trouble chopping broccoli?  Having a receiver hitch is a key to adventure. If you’ve ever owned a vehicle without one, and then upgraded to one that does or added a hitch, you start seeing possibilities. You think of towing boat, hauling a trailer or camper, or a bike rack to start riding trails. Hitch noise can squash those daydreams in an instant.

Daystar’s Silent Hitch is born from their innovation in polyurethane.  This ingenious little insert fits inside your 2″ receiver hitch opening. Then simply insert an 1-1/4″ ball mount, or your hitch mount bike rack, and tow in silence.  We go from U2, all the way to Simon and Garfunkel.

The Who

So who does this little isolator help? Who, who, who who?!  The most common unibody vehicles are the Jeep XJ, (83-01 Cherokee) KJ (01-07) , the Jeep Patriot, and the new Renegade. Many Kia and Honda vehicles also employ unibody design.  These popular SUV and CUV vehicles are at the epicenter of the overlanding movement, and marketed to those that like to get out there and do things.  These folks owe a debt of gratitude to Daystar for making their adventures less painful on the ears.

So for your next adventure, don’t just accept that noise. Get yourself a Silent Hitch, and let the only annoying sound you hear on your family treks be your oldest child yelling that her siblings are hogging all of your mobile plan’s shared data.
