Trailer Hitches

A trailer hitch is a device attached to the chassis of a vehicle for hauling large or heavy loads. Depending on your Hino model, with the help of a trailer hitch, you could be towing up to 17,000 pounds on North American models! Installing a trailer hitch on your Hino will give you the advantage of hauling more weight at once, saving you trips and fuel.

Suspension Systems

If you want to get the most out of your new Hino, you might consider implementing a suspension system or shock absorber. At Somerville Hino, we specialize in helping our customers achieve the very highest level of performance and personalization with our excellent range of Hino parts and accessories, and we have a great selection of Hino 258 suspension products for you to choose from. Suspension systems and shock absorbers control the relative motions between your truck and its wheels. For a smoother, more controlled ride, a suspension system allows the driver to minimize vibrations from the road and experience a more comfortable drive.

Back-Up and Dash Cameras

Have you ever wanted to keep an eye on what you’re towing, but can’t see it by glancing in your mirrors? Hino now offers a series of back-up and dash cameras specially designed for the new Hino 258, allowing you as a driver to have eyes on the road and also on your load at the touch of a button. Most cameras are now operated by intelligent touch screen technologies, making it very easy for you to control the instrument while driving.
