There is definitely a market for pintle hitches with a similar design but for smaller trailers with receiver style hitches. I tow a 5400lb chipper with a 1 ton chip truck and I've been looking for something like this for the same reasons. The slop in the ring is minor but some sort of dampening compensation would be awesome. Most tree services spend the vast majority of their time driving in cities, lots of backing up and coupling/uncoupling several times a day to dump etc.. The constant banging from the pintle gets old fast.
