LOL... did you watch the video you recorded? "On this one, you just pull the pin out here, like this [moves the camera so that we're looking at concrete, then moves it back after it's done]... and that's how it snaps right in there."
You definitely only ever want to pull a pintle trailer with a pintle hitch that has a 2 5/16" ball on it, not a 2" and not an 1 7/8" the two smaller ones do not have the weight capacity that the bigger 2 5/16" ball has. The ball on my Pintle hitch is a 2 5/16" and it's got a rating of 14,000 lbs ball tow capacity and a 16,000 lbs pintle hook capacity.
Thats not true. You can get different weight capacities on different size balls. The size of the ball doesn't tell you what the rated capacity is. You can literally get a 2" a ball that's rated for 15,000 pounds. And it doesn't really matter anyway because a lunette ring doesn't sit on the ball it's just using the ball as a pin. You're not actually torquing or stressing the ball because the lunette rings is pulling at the bottom which doesn't strain the upper shaft which is the weak point on the ball.
You missed showing the most important part which is how the hitch locks. Please repost a new Vedio because many people say they did not get your point.
TOTAL BOLLOCKS!!!!!!!!, Either the hitch fixed to the vehicle has to rotate or the Towing Eye/Ring on the trailer has to rotate, one bump in the road and you are UPSIDE DOWN!!!!.

Not true. I've got a 1 7/8 rated at 12k and my truck can't even pull that much. It's fine.
They make 2 in. Ball Pintle set up. The ball just has to be a combo set up ball not a regular ball for a regular hitch style
Really didn't notice much with that camera padding back and forth that fast 🤷🏽♂️
I love the part where you show the pintle hitch drop in🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
You don’t cross the chains to catch the hitch if it falls off

You need someone to film it. We can't see what you are doing
I did not see the locking on the pintle. very poorly filmed
You arent supposed to hook the break away to anything thats already being hooked to that defeats the purpose
You just wouldn't dare. lol Only in 3rd world Murica. No standards at all
Wow you didn't show anything about what you were saying
terrible video
