It is also defined as a device that is attached to a truck to help facilitate towing a trailer behind it. There are actually a couple of different types of trailer hitch that can be attached to your truck and these are the lunette ring and the weight-distributing hitch.

• Lunette ring. This kind of a hitch works in conjunction with a pintle hook, which is found on the vehicle to be towed. This kind of hitch is considered more ideal for use on rough terrain since this is a more secure type of hitch as compared to the more common ball hitch.
• Weight-distributing hitch. This kind of trailer hitch is often used on trucks that wish to avoid the problem of trailer hop and sway. The vehicles towed with the use of this kind of trailer hitch should have square receiving sockets.
