The Factor 55 HitchLink 2.0 converts your standard 2-inch receiver hitch into a strong and reliable recovery tow point. Instead of relying on traditional tow balls or unsafe recovery methods, this precision-machined unit provides a safer, rated recovery solution for 4WD and off-road vehicles.
Designed and manufactured in the USA, the HitchLink 2.0 delivers strength without unnecessary weight.
Lightweight Yet Extremely Strong
The Factor 55 HitchLink 2.0 is CNC machined from high-quality 6000 series aluminum. As a result, it weighs only 1.9 pounds, significantly lighter than comparable steel versions that can weigh up to 8 pounds.
Despite its lightweight design, it offers serious strength:
-
Rated working load: 9,500 lbs
-
Ultimate failure strength: 51,000 lbs
-
Fits standard 2-inch receivers
-
Compatible with common ¾” screw pin shackles / D-rings
-
Machined radius shackle hole for soft shackle compatibility
Because of this combination of strength and weight savings, it is ideal for overlanders, tourers, and serious off-road drivers.
Built for Durability
To ensure long-term performance, the HitchLink 2.0 features either anodized or powder-coated finishes for oxidation protection. Therefore, it withstands harsh outdoor environments, including mud, water, and salt exposure.
Its compact overall size (6.6″ x 2″ x 2″) makes storage easy when not in use.
Important Safety Guidelines
For safe recovery operations, always follow these recommendations:
-
Never exceed your vehicle’s factory receiver hitch rating
-
Always use a quality 5/8” steel alloy hitch pin
-
Always pull in line with the hitch
-
Never bind or side-load the shackle
Safe recovery practices are essential when using the Factor 55 HitchLink 2.0.
