Today were going to take a quick look at the Bulldog collar lock Coupler with high profile latch part number bd028463. Bulldog covers this coupler with limited five year warranty. It has a 12,500 pound gross trailer weight capacity. Its designed to work with 50 degree A-frame trailers. It has the standard cut and bolt pattern cut to mount a trailer jack. Now well show you how this jack operates.
It comes included with a pin that fits through the latch mechanism to prevent it from being opened. You can replace this pin with a coupler lock, sold separately, that will also secure the latch and prevent it from coming open while trailering down the road but itll also help protect against theft when you have your trailer stored. As for the mechanism well lift the handle, this collar slides back so that the spring loaded hinge jaw can open up and release the ball. Well lift our latch, the collar moves back and the jaw pops out. Well hold the jaw in and close the collar over it.
Now weve got with us a two and five sixteenth ball so well show you how it works with an actual ball. Pull our latch open. The hinge jaw pops open and it provides a little stop here for the collar to rest so you dont have to worry about it closing when youre hooking or unhooking your trailer. Weve got a two and five sixteenth ball that well fit into the socket. We can then close our jaw and let the collar close over it.
Now our ball is completely captive but it allows enough movement for it to track nicely behind eh vehicle. Well pull open our jaw and our balls free. Thats it for a quick look at the Bulldog collar lock Coupler with high profile latch for two and five sixteenth balls part number bd028463.

I love the bulldog collar coupler, so easy to use. No pinching of fingers sliding like on old latch.
I've used these types of couplers before on my other trailers and love them! Simple operation and gives me a very secure feeling this will never come off my ball hitch. This coupler is to replace my old hard-to-operate other style coupler on my flat bed car hauler. Would've given 5 stars if it weren't that I had to work the spring loaded latch back and forth many many times and with lubrication to finally become semi-free in operation.
great and heavy duty
Looks very nice and sturdy.
Easiest hook up there is.The first time I bought one of these connectors I was in Texas. They are easy to find out there. Well I have a problem with my tow vehicle. It has a spare tire hanging right on top of my receiver ball. The connector that came with the trailer required about 6+" of space between the ball and the tire, which I did not have, I could lengthen the ball out which I definately wanted to avoid. This connector was the answer to my situation. I went up north last weekend to visit my son and when I got back this connector was setting on my front porch, this was about 4:30 PM. Before I went to bed it was installed on my trailer, after I cut the existing one off ofcourse. This connector connects up like a dream, it's self centering, has no adjustments, so you do not have to worry if it is too tight or too loose and may come apart. I modified the toung on my last trailer also and used this same connector, it's neat, sweet and compleat. I may be in the market for a load leveler kit.

Spring loaded clam shell still stiff in opening completely. Other than that, factory welds are showing no signs of stress or cracks. Original star rating remains the same.
