Start a Towing Revolution with the CURT Manufacturing Rebellion XD
Anyone who’s ever looked into top-notch towing equipment is familiar with the CURT Manufacturing line of products. With excellent quality and unparalleled customer service, CURT has built a sterling reputation for itself over the last 25 years. So, when the company releases a new product, like the CURT Manufacturing Rebellion XD, it’s a pretty safe bet that it will be a quality innovation that noticeably improves the industry.
In the past, we looked at some of the company’s top-selling products, like its 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch, Pintle Mount, and the revolutionary Echo Mobile Brake Control system. And each one was quickly beloved by the towing industry. So, when a new product from CURT is unveiled, we can’t wait to see what it’s capable of.
Check out the CURT Manufacturing Rebellion XD Adjustable Cushion Hitch Ball Mount, available as of August 2019, and the new ShockDrop Technology that makes it so special.
CURT Manufacturing Rebellion XD
The CURT Manufacturing Rebellion XD is a new ball mount that features CURT’s revolutionizing ShockDrop technology. (More on that in a minute.) It is a dynamic, adaptive suspension mount that noticeably dampens jerking and jarring from potholes and other roadway obstacles, making for smoother overall towing.
Virtually maintenance-free, the Rebellion XD has no airbags or bearing that require service. It features a 2-inch shank and a maximum drop of 6.25 inches, and is rated for a gross towing weight of a whopping 15,000 pounds.
So, what exactly is the new ShockDrop technology that has been put to good use on the Rebellion XD?
Designed by in-house engineers, ShockDrop is “an adaptive, dynamic towing system that is engineered to suppress vibrations, rattling, strain on the vehicle, and even the tendency for sway in your trailer.” Using an integrated polyurethane isolator, it is far easier to use and care for than other cushioned hitch options on today’s market, which often involve complicated airbags or bearings.
The benefits of ShockDrop can really be broken down into the three C’s: Comfort, Control, and Confidence.
The cushioned isolator on the Rebellion XD improves comfort, absorbing many of the bumps that traditional metal-on-metal hitches would transfer onto its riders. It also aids control of your vehicle and the load you’re hauling by dynamically reacting to jerking and jarring (and it helps immensely in sudden breaking situations, too). Of course, drivers can feel confident when hooked up with the Rebellion XD’s ShockDrop tech, knowing that it is helping to preserve your ride’s critical systems (like brakes and suspension).
Plus, with a durable design and a limited lifetime warranty, you’ll be able to enjoy that confidence for a long, long time.
Built to Last
The look of the CURT Manufacturing Rebellion XD is one of strength and professionalism, with rock-solid cast steel construction and a dark gray teridium finish. Its light-weight design causes less stress on the trailer hitch receiver, keeping your towing systems in tip-top shape for a long time. And the adjustable, six-position head makes for precise leveling, no matter what type of trailer you prefer.
Finally, available to the public only recently, the CURT Manufacturing Rebellion XD is sure to push the market forward, as the company’s new innovations tend to do. And with a retail price under $600, you can tow with comfort, control, and confidence for a very long time—at a very fair price.
The flagship brand of the CURT Group, CURT Manufacturing is a distinctly American company, whose territory covers virtually the entire continent and beyond. CURT started out with the humblest of beginnings, operating out of the trunk of a car in 1993. Today they are simply referred to as “The First Name In Towing Products.”
