Average Customer Rating:  5.0 out of 5 stars   (29 Customer Reviews)

A-frame coupler features a squeeze latch for safe, easy hookup. Squeeze both levers on latch to open ball socket. Jack port lets you mount a round trailer jack.

by:

I love the way it couples and the longe distance in front of the jack. Makes it a lot easier to get tailgate down on the truck. Also how I can just go up in the suspension and it locks without me having to get out of the truck.



by:

The part fit perfectly and showed up two days earlier than expected



by:

Can't beat the speed ordered Monday at 2pm on my porch Wednesday at 10am



by:

Exactly what I was looking for. Weld on replacement trailer tongue.



by:

Great service, “Better than expected”!



by:

Haven’t got it welded on yet but it’s really nice and heavy duty



by:

etrailer reached out to me with a a alternate product which was readily available and expedited its shipment to me. I received the product many days quicker than the original product I ordered. Thanks Robert S of trailer.



by:

I had absolutely no problem with it. The welder had no issues getting it welded to my trailer frame. Thank you.



by:

Heavy duty coupler. Works great. Super fast delivery with excellent communication. This is my second purchase with this company. I am very happy.



by:

Stout! I had it welded on locally and it is not going anywhere! Peace of mind.

Do you have a question about this A-Frame Trailer Coupler?
  • What Is The Angle For The etrailer A-Frame Trailer Coupler?
    The etrailer A-Frame Trailer Coupler w/ Round Jack Hole # CA-5280-RB uses the standard a-frame angle of 50 degrees. The length from the rear of the coupler to where the coupler meets its narrowest point is approximately 9" long. I have include this information in the picture below.

  • Dimensions of the A-Frame Trailer Coupler # CA-5280-RB
    I went out to the warehouse and measured the A-Frame Trailer Coupler # CA-5280-RB and found that from the widest point to the smallest point it measured 10-9/16" and 2-5/8" respectively. This will give you the angle. The overall height of the piece that fits over the frame was about 3-7/8" while the inner height (where it site on the frame) measured about 3-1/4". I have attached a picture and a review video for you to check out.

  • Is This A-Frame Coupler # CA-5280-RB Compatible With the Parkit360 Trailer Dollies Thrust Washer?
    Yes the A-Frame Trailer Coupler # CA-5280-RB will work with the Parkit360 thrust washer. The removable puzzle piece portion of the trust washer will give you the clearance needed as the coupler section of the ball clamp will hang slightly below the base of the hitch ball coupler.

  • Can etrailer.com A-Frame Trailer Coupler Be Adjusted
    The etrailer.com A-Frame Trailer Coupler # CA-5280-RB that you referenced does have a nice and convenient squeeze latch that allows for quick and safe coupling, but there aren't any adjustment points on the underside to tighten up a connection. Those bolts that you mentioned are just to hold the jaw in place. We do not have a standard A-frame coupler that has the ability to adjust like this. If you are experiencing a lot of movement with your current setup there might be some rust or...

  • Replacement 15,000LB Coupler For a 18' A-Frame Trailer
    I recommend installing the A-Frame Trailer Coupler # CA-5280-RB on your trailer. This has a cutout with bolt holes for a tongue jack. It places the opening where it is structurally stronger so it is less likely to bend like your current coupler.

  • What is Tongue Weight Rating of A-Frame Trailer Coupler w/ Round Jack Hole # CA-5280-RB
    The tongue weight capacity of the 15k trailer coupler part # CA-5280-RB that you referenced is 2,250 lbs.

  • A-Frame Coupler Recommendation for 14k Trailer
    Ram couplers are solid couplers that as long as you stay under the capacity of them they will work great. I would not recommend a 12.5k coupler on a 14k trailer though. Instead you'd want to go with a coupler with a 15k capacity like the part # CA-5280-RB instead. I attached a review video for this coupler for you to check out as well.

  • Can Underslung A-Frame Coupler be Replaced With Overslung Coupler
    Yes, you can replace your underslung A-frame trailer coupler with an overslung coupler. Just choose the one with the right ball connection and weight capacity. For example, if you attach to a 2-5/16" hitch ball and need up to 15,000 lbs capacity use the A-Frame Trailer Coupler # CA-5280-RB. I have added a link below to our entire selection of A-frame couplers for you to take a look at.

  • Replacement A-Frame Trailer Coupler For 1978 Airstream With 50 Degree A-Frame
    It would appear that that your 1978 Airstream had the standard 50 degree a-frame style coupler. You can verify this to ensure that the etrailer A-Frame Trailer Coupler # CA-5280-RB will fit correctly on your Airstream. I personally prefer the auto latching style couplers like the Demco 50-Degree A-Frame Trailer Coupler # 12660-97SP. This coupler for me is cleaner and works simpler with the latching system. The connection for the jack has nuts welded on to the bottom of the plate making...

  • Can I Rebuild my RAM A-Frame Trailer Coupler CA-5400-B
    The A-Frame Trailer Coupler part # CA-5400-B is a full replacement and the only way I know to repair it when it is broken. The Repair Kit for etrailer and Ram A-Frame Couplers part # CA-5100-RK is designed for original trigger latch couplers different than yours. The A-Frame Trailer Coupler w/ Round Jack Hole part # CA-5280-RB is a nice upgrade that can be made which is a 15K coupler that is easier to use and service. Repairs can be made if you're confident it will work and hold but by...

  • Are There Replacement Parts for the A-Frame Trailer Coupler w/ Round Jack Hole CA-5280-RB
    I do have weld-on, a-frame trailer couplers in which replacement parts are available but the A-Frame Trailer Coupler w/ Round Jack Hole part # CA-5280-RB is not one of them.
