[two thumbs up]
The right product, good delivery time, good job and will order again. Thanks
Cables worked like they should. Well made and fast delivery.
Great product and shipped fast too! etrailer is the best.
Great Safety cables. Very good quality and etrailer always has good prices and their service, support and follow-up is second to none in my opinion. I'm still using the cables after a year and they look good as new. Thank you etrailer.
Just received the products I ordered. Both items look excellent. I ordered the RoadMaster High-Low 6" Drop Hitch and the Blue Ox Safety Cables.
Heavily constructed, should easily provide protection for our 2016 Lincoln MKX.
The cable assemblies are well made and a fair price given the quality of the hardware the strength of the splices.
Yup, they are steel cables and at one year they have not rusted in half. Well, ok, they have not rusted at all even at the point where I let one rub on the frame and it chewed an away some of the coating. Good cables which will last as long as I need. I actually moved them from the wrangler i originally installed them on to our new maverick to tow that.
Cables are what I expected which are the same as what came with my base plate for our 2014 Ford Focus. Had to order these because no cables came with my base plate for our 2000 Cavalier Z24 Convertible when I purchase that base plate several years ago. Seems that then cables did not come standard with base plate. I give this a low rating because not allowed to discuss what is listed as not APPROPRIATE for the review.
I ordered the wrong cables to start with. I talked with Josh and had an easy return process.
Exactly what I was looking for. It was difficult to find shorter cables rated for my trailer but etrailer had them. Shipping got delayed in route by the carrier and etrailer was quick to notify me. Couldn't ask for better service on this order.
This product worked great. Didn't have a place to connect the safety cables. Wrapped these around the frame at the bumper.
This is very well made and the coating covering the cable is very tough. The connectors are much bigger than you may realize but are also very well made and work smoothly. I dont think you will be dissapointed.
Nice quality. Easy to install. Flexible
Very stout cables, no rust or problems after a year of use.
Received in good condition and performed as expected.
