📘 Overview
A Star Industries pintle hitch adapter fits the receiver on a Lift-N-Tow or Load-N-Tow and lets a forklift tow lunette-eye trailers. Three versions are offered and they are matched to the attachment rather than being interchangeable: the 1392 standard fits the 1390B Lift-N-Tow and the 1398 Load-N-Tow, rated 2,000 lb vertical lift and 10,000 lb gross towing; the 1394PH super duty fits the 1395B Super Duty Lift-N-Tow at 3,000 lb and 16,000 lb; and the 1396C-PH Navy version fits the 1396C Navy Lift-N-Tow on a 2 1/2 inch receiver.

🔑 Why Buyers Choose the Star Industries Pintle Hitch Adapter
- The adapter is matched to the attachment, not universal — the 1392 fits the 1390B and 1398, the 1394PH fits the 1395B, and the 1396C-PH fits the 1396C on a larger 2 1/2 inch receiver. Check which you own before ordering.
- A pintle takes a lunette eye, a ball does not — most construction and utility trailers use a lunette ring rather than a coupler. If your trailers do, a pintle is the only hitch that will connect.
- Ratings step up with the attachment — 10,000 lb gross towing on the standard and 16,000 lb on the super duty. The adapter cannot exceed what the Lift-N-Tow beneath it is rated for.
- Swapping hitches takes seconds — the adapter slides into the receiver, so a yard moving both ball-coupled and lunette-eye trailers changes between them without changing attachments.
- Navy version already includes its pintle — a pintle hitch comes with the 1396C Navy Lift-N-Tow as standard, so the 1396C-PH is a replacement rather than an addition.

🔗 Choosing Between Pintle, Ball and Combo
A pintle hook takes a lunette eye, which is what most construction and utility trailers use. For ball-coupled trailers, Star supplies the 1391 adapter with a 2 inch ball for the 1390B, rated 600 lb vertical lift and 10,000 lb gross towing. If you move both types, the combo adapters carry a 2 inch ball and a pintle together — the 1393 for the 1390B and 1398, and the 1394CH for the 1395B. All slide into the same receiver, so changing between them takes seconds.
🚜 Which Attachments Fit This Pintle Hitch?
These adapters fit the receiver on a Star Lift-N-Tow or Load-N-Tow rather than mounting to a machine directly, so the fitment check is which attachment you own. The 1392 fits the 1390B Lift-N-Tow and the 1398 Load-N-Tow on a 2 inch receiver. The 1394PH fits the 1395B Super Duty on a 2 inch receiver. The 1396C-PH fits the 1396C Navy Lift-N-Tow, which uses a larger 2 1/2 inch receiver and is not interchangeable with the others.
| Your attachment | Pintle adapter to order | Receiver size |
|---|---|---|
| 1390B Lift-N-Tow | 1392 | 2 in |
| 1398 Load-N-Tow | 1392 | 2 in |
| 1395B Super Duty Lift-N-Tow | 1394PH | 2 in |

❓ Star Industries Pintle Hitch Adapter Questions, Answered
Which pintle hitch do I need?
It depends on which attachment you own. The 1392 fits the 1390B Lift-N-Tow and the 1398 Load-N-Tow. The 1394PH fits the 1395B Super Duty Lift-N-Tow. The 1396C-PH fits the 1396C Navy Lift-N-Tow, which uses a larger 2 1/2 inch receiver.
What is the towing capacity?
The 1392 is rated 2,000 lb maximum vertical lift and 10,000 lb maximum gross towing weight. The 1394PH is rated 3,000 lb and 16,000 lb. The adapter cannot exceed what the Lift-N-Tow beneath it is rated for.
What is the difference between a pintle hitch and a ball hitch?
A pintle hook takes a lunette eye — a ring on the trailer drawbar — which is what most construction and utility trailers use. A ball takes a coupler. If your trailers have lunette rings, only a pintle will connect.
Can I get one hitch that does both?
Yes. The combo adapters carry a 2 inch ball and a pintle together: the 1393 for the 1390B and 1398, and the 1394CH for the 1395B. Both slide into the same receiver as the pintle-only versions.
Is a pintle hitch included with the Lift-N-Tow?
Only with the Navy version. A pintle hitch is included as standard with the 1396C Navy Lift-N-Tow. On the 1390B and 1395B, hitch adapters are sold separately.
Are the adapters interchangeable between models?
The 1392 and 1394PH both use a 2 inch receiver but are rated for different attachments. The 1396C-PH uses a 2 1/2 inch receiver and is not interchangeable with either. Check the attachment you own before ordering.
How quickly can I change hitches?
Seconds. The adapter slides into the receiver and pins, so a yard moving both ball-coupled and lunette-eye trailers swaps between them without changing the attachment on the forks.
What warranty comes with the pintle hitch?
The Star Industries hitch adapters carry a 5-year factory guarantee and are made in the USA.
How do I order and how is shipping calculated?
