Hey Daniel, I am really big fan of the latch system on the Demco eZ latch couplers like the part # DM13205-95. Unlike most of the current popular designs this stays easy to use over time and doesn't require a ton of finagling once its been out in the weather for any length of time. This is for a 2-5/16 inch ball and has a 21k capacity. What do you think?

Hey Daniel, how did the Demco eZ Latch coupler end up working out for your trailer? That latch system sounds like it could make towing a lot easier. Your feedback could really help others looking for a strong, easy-to-use coupler.
