• What Size Clevis Hook is Needed for the Safety Chain Loops on the Curt Gooseneck Kit Part # C60618
  The clevis hook on the Tow Ready Safety Chain Kit part # 49150 is 5/16" diameter. Therefore if this hook will not work with the Curt Ball and Safety Chain Loops Kit for Ram Underbed Gooseneck Hitch part # C60618 then you will want to move up to a 3/8" diameter clevis hook like the one included with the Buyers Products Trailer Safety Chain part # 337BSC3842. This clevis hook should be large enough to accommodate the safe chain loops on the above Curt Gooseneck Kit. You will need two of them...

• How to Connect Gooseneck Safety Chains to Coupler With D-Rings
  Usually the safety chains are attached to the coupler with bolts and then the clevises connect to the U bolts or Rings on the bed of the truck. In this case, since you're not bolting on to anything, the previous owner has just wrapped them through the D-rings to secure them to the coupler. Doing it this way will provide a secure connection, so there's nothing really to worry about in regards to the security of your current connection. If you're looking to create a new set of chains for...

• Do Safety Chains Come With Reese Goose Box Fifth Wheel to Gooseneck Adapter?
  Though safety chains to do not come with a Reese Goose Box 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Air Ride Coupler Adapter such as RP94623 they are available by using the Tow Ready Safety Chain Kit # 49150. If you look at the accompanying photo you can see exactly how they will mount on a Reese Goose Box. I've added links to video reviews of these parts for you to take a look at.

• Safety Chains to Use with 20,000 Pound Goose Box
  For a safety chain with a higher capacity than the # 49150 I recommend part # FCHA0050324 which is rated up to 18,800 pounds. This is only one chain so you need two of them but the rating is per chain so it's definitely enough for what you need. The # FCHA0050324 however does not include any hardware. To connect them to a Goose Box # RP94720 you need 1/2 washers, 1/2 inch nuts, 1/2-13x2.25 bolts, and 1/2 inch lock washers. You need 2 of each.

• Is a Reese Goose Box or Flex Air Pin Box Better for Reducing Ride Quality and Chucking
  The Reese Goose Box and a Flex Air pin box serve 2 different functions. So if you have a 5th wheel trailer that you want to tow with a gooseneck trailer hitch you would use a Goose Box (more on that later). If you have a 5th wheel trailer hitch then you would use the Flex Air. Both are cushioned and have shocks so I would not give the advantage to either one. If your truck has a gooseneck hitch and you need to tow a 5th wheel trailer the Reese Goose Box is the best option. But they only...

• Are Safety Chains Required When Towing Gooseneck Trailer in Georgia
  You'd have to check with the local highway department in Georgia to verify, but from what I was able to look up there are laws in Georgia that require safety chains when towing with a gooseneck hitch and trailer. For a set that have a 16,000 lb capacity we have the part # 49150 which would work great if you are in need of a set.

  For a set of 42 inch chains that have 16k capacity that would work great for your 10k horse trailer I would recommend the part # 49150. These are normally used for gooseneck hitch setups, but they would work well for you and have plenty of capacity.

• Recommended Safety Chains for B&W 5th Wheel Hitch and MorRyde Pin Box
  We do not carry any type of bed saver for the B&W hitch. The product was discontinued and no manufacturer we carry does anything similar. For your safety chains, I recommend the Tow Ready Safety Chain Kit with Clevis Hooks - 44" Long - 16,000 lbs - Qty 2 # 49150. These chains are not required on a 5th wheel hitch, so they will require a customized install on your MorRyde Pin Box. You can then use the Reese Safety-Chain Attachment for Gooseneck Hitches on 5th Wheel Rails # RP50223...

• Recommended Safety Chains for New Coupler and 1/2 Inch Bolts
  For a 1/2 inch bolt, you will normally need a chain that has a 5/16 inch link diameter like # 49150. To utilize your current chains, I recommend simply changing your hardware and using Grade 8 bolts that fit your chains using the largest size that will fit your links with appropriate washers and locknuts. This will obviously require drilling additional holes.

• Recommended Safety Chains for 16K Gooseneck Trailer
  To replace your safety chains, I recommend the Tow Ready Safety Chain Kit with Clevis Hooks - 44" Long - 16,000 lbs - Qty 2 # 49150. We don't have just a 10 inch extension that is capable of that weight requirement.

• Can I Add a Length of Chain to My Gooseneck Safety Chains to Make Hooking Up Easier
  I don't see any reason why you can't do this as long as everything is rated equally or higher than your capacity. The unfortunate part is that we don't have any safety chains that are shorter than the Tow Ready 44" # 49150, so you would need to source the shorter chains at your local hardware store. To connect the two chains, you can use a heavy duty clevis hook like the # TCSLIP-G70-13-L, which is rated for 11300-lbs per clevis, so a pair would be well over the capacity to use on your...

• Are Safety Chains Required for Clevis Style Ball Mounts
  You have a clevis style ball mount and it will require the use of safety chains by law. The only type of connection point that will not require safety chains is a king pin like the ones used on 5th wheel trailers. If you need a set of safety chains I recommend using the Tow Ready Safety Chain Kit part # 49150. This kit has mounting hardware to mount the chains to the trailer. The chains themselves are 44" long and have a 16,000 lb weight capacity. I have attached a review video of the...

  Yes, each chain that comes with the Tow Ready # 49150 is 42" long, and 44" in total length when you include the clevis hook in that measurement. These chains have a total capacity of 16000-lbs and are a zinc plated steel to help resist corrosion.

• Is Clevis Hook 6495-301-04 Compatible with Tow Ready Safety Chain Kit with Clevis Hooks 49150
  On the Clevis Hook with Latch, 5/16" Item # 6495-301-04 the pin that would go through a chain link is 7/16 inches in diameter like you said. That means that the internal width of a chain link would have to be at or a little above 7/16 inches in order for the pin to go through the link. For safety chains # 49150 the metal of the links is 5/16 inches but the opening in a link is a hair under 1/2 an inch and so they would work with # 6495-301-04. You could also use Safety Chain with...

• Safety Chains and the Reese Elite Series Gooseneck Kit Compatibility
  The Tow Ready Safety Chain Kit with Clevis Hooks # 49150 you ordered fit on the Reese Elite Series Pop-In Ball Kit you purchased. My recommendation is to feed the clasp all the way through the loops and connect the clevis to the chain itself if you desire the clasp latch. The clasp isn't required for your chains to work with the clevis hook.

• Replacement Safety Chains Needed for Gooseneck Trailer
  I am not quite sure what you currently have on your gooseneck trailer but we do have the Tow Ready Safety Chain Kit # 49150 which is 44" long, rated for 16,000 lbs, and has a clevis hook diameter of 5/16". Let me know if this doesn't work out for you and I can see if we have something else that better fits your situation.

• Can Gooseneck Safety Chains 49150 be Used with Cattle Trailer
  The Tow Ready Safety Chain Kit with Clevis Hooks # 49150 have a 16,000 lb trailer capacity so as long as your trailer weighs less than that when loaded these would be a properly rated safety chain for your setup. The length of these is also 44 inches so you might verify that this length would be sufficient as well. In general this is a length that works well for most so I wouldn't anticipate it being an issue. For a higher rated chain set we have the part # RP49151 which has a 20k capacity...

• B&W Gooseneck Hitch to Replace OEM Gooseneck Hitch on a 2016 Ram 3500
  You can replace the OEM puck system on your 2016 Ram 3500 with the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BWGNRK1314 but you will need to use the installation hardware that comes with the B&W kit. Not only have these bolts been tested and approved with the B&W gooseneck hitch but typically hitch hardware, whether it is for bumper pull or 5th wheel/gooseneck hitches, is only meant to be torqued once. The reason that other gooseneck hitches don't have an offset is because they...

• Which Reese Goose Box Works In Place Of An LCI Item Number 699766
  Thanks for the photo. I called Lippert and used the 699766 number from this and was able to determine that you have a Lippert 1116 pin box on your trailer. Therefore, if you are looking for a Reese Goose Box 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Air Ride Coupler Adapter then you will need part # RP94716-61301. I also recommend using the Tow Ready Safety Chain Kit with Clevis Hooks part # 49150 as well. Please note that the Reese Goose Box 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Air Ride Coupler Adapter is only for...

• B&W Offset Ball and Chain Kit Compatible with Ford Factory Puck System
  I have a solution for you, but there is not a manufacturer that currently offers an offset gooseneck ball that is compatible with any of the factory gooseneck hitches. To solve your problem, you could still go with the B&W Ball and Safety Chain Kit # BWGNXA2061 , which gives you the safety chain hookups that work in the factory puck system of your 2019 Ford F-250. To give you the offset you're needing, you could then add the B&W Extend-A-Goose Gooseneck Coupler # BWTEXA4200 , which provides...

• Safety Chains for 7000-lb Car Hauler Trailer
  As with any other item on a trailer, such as tires, wheels, winches or jacks, when selecting safety chains you want to ensure a good safety margin, in other words, you want to use an item that has a good bit more capacity than you will actually need. I suggest the Tow Ready Safety Chain Kit with Clevis Hooks, part # 49150, which is a set of two 44-inch chains with mounting hardware.

• Can I use 20k Safety Chains with the Reese 16k Goosebox?
  Because the bolts used to attach the chains to the pin box are different sizes on the 16k and 20k, the Reese 20k safety chains # RP49151 are not directly compatible with the 16k Goosebox. However, after speaking with my source at Reese, we determined that it won't be an issue if you just match the bolt sizes up with your Goosebox. The 16k chains # 49150 use a 1/2" diameter bolt and the 20k chains use a 9/16" bolt, so depending on the bolt hole size on your Goosebox (which is probably...

• Safety Chain, Quick Link and Chain Mount Recommendation for XLR Hyperlite Toy Hauler
  The parts you all mentioned would have enough capacity for the weight of your 9.9k toy hauler. The part # MB38 would work well for mounting the safety chains # 49150 with the quick link # 49135. Now where the part # MB38 should install on your trailer is going to be dependent on your trailer setup. I would put it on the trailer frame as near to the coupler as you can but you really should mock it up in a couple places to find where it would fit the best.

• Troubleshooting Bend In Trailer Frame and Safety Chain Length
  Your safety chains would not cause your trailer frame to bend like you pictured even if the safety chains are barely long enough to attach. It would be wise to get longer safety chains, but you would need to have amazingly strong chains, bolts, and hitch chain loops to cause your trailer frame to bend before the other parts failed. It looks like someone jack knifed the trailer to cause a bend like that. The good news is the back side of that frame rail still looks straight and will most...

• What Size Hitch Ball Will The Reese Goose Box 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Adapter Work With
  Yes, the Reese Goose Box 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Air Ride Coupler Adapter part # RP94716 is designed to work with a 2-5/16" hitch ball. A better way to determine the clearance between the bed rails and pin box, is to install the pin box and adjust it to the appropriate settings. As most states require a set of safety chains to be used, I recommend the Tow Ready Safety Chain Kit with Clevis Hooks part # 49150 for your pin box. I have attached a photo of how the chains should be used for you.

This is sold as a single chain, not a pair.

• Does the Reese Goose Box Part # RP94716 Come With Safety Chains
  The Reese Goose Box # RP94716 air ride coupler you referenced does not come with safety chains. Safety chains, such as the Tow Ready # 49150, are always a good idea whether they are required or not. I highly recommend checking with the local and state laws where you will be traveling to determine the safety chain requirements. The issue is that a trailer that couples to a ball would require safety chains in many geographical locations. Though the 5th wheel trailer may not require them,...
