That ARK coupler is interesting. Some of it's design features I like and others I dislike. The biggest thing that I dislike is the height offset, I'd rather that the swiveling fork was inline with the receiver tube. Using an existing ball is brilliant.
My trailer in the pic above is a Torflex...
I think pintle hitches take a hit for noise when really it's caused by poor component selection. I was guilty of this, and advised against them for years. Then I found some military stds for the system and decided to try one that was sized correctly.
IF the lunette is correctly sized they don't...
