Required in most states, a safety chain acts as a backup if your trailer becomes disconnected from your tow vehicle. Attach the end link of this zinc-coated steel chain to your gooseneck coupler, and then hook the clevis hooks to loops in truck bed.
Features:
Specs:
As shown in the illustration above, locate your safety chain mounting lugs on the rear underside of your Goose Box. Install the flat washer onto the bolt and put bolt and washer through the last link in the safety chain. Next, position bolt, washer, and chain assembly through the hole in the mounting lug, and secure with 1/2" nut and lock washer. Bolt should be torqued to 110 ft. lbs. Repeat the process for the other chain.

Videos are provided as a guide only. Refer to manufacturer installation instructions and specs for complete information.
Today we're taking a look at the Tow Ready Safety Chain Kit. Now, safety chains help insure safe towing. They simply provide a backup connection between your trailer and your tow vehicle.Now, this is designed for gooseneck trailers, but can be used for other applications as well. We have the clevis hooks on the end of each chain. The clevis hooks connect to the safety chain loops on the vehicle. They have a spring loaded safety latch mechanism to prevent accidental disconnecting.
And then the end link attaches to the safety chain mounting lug on the gooseneck coupler.Comes with new installation hardware. If you're attaching this to, let's say, a standard A-frame trailer, you can put on some of those safety chain weld-on loops, or you can find a way to anchor it with the bolt directly through the frame. But it does come with your two chains, each one containing a clevis hook, forge steel construction, and hardware to get it attached to the trailer.Now, we're looking at a nice durable steel construction. It's very strong, very dependable, and it has a zinc coated finish on it to resist rust and corrosion. These chains are rated with a weight capacity of 16,000 pounds, with a maximum pen weight or tongue weight of 3,200 pounds.
The overall length of each chain, including the hook, is around 44 inches long. Chain link diameter is 5/16ths of an inch. And again, you get everything that you see laid out here on the table, as well as detailed installation instructions.That's gonna do it for today's look at the Tow Ready Safety Chain Kit.

Required in most states, a safety chain acts as a backup if your trailer becomes disconnected from your tow vehicle. Attach the end link of this zinc-coated steel chain to your gooseneck coupler, and then hook the clevis hooks to loops in truck bed.Great price for two ready to go safety chains. Plenty of length for my 16' drop deck trailer. 417144
These safety chains are solid as a rock. They were purchased to go with the Reese Elite Gooseneck Trailer Hitch Accessory Kit. The clasps on the chains are extremely difficult to get to snap closed using the safety chain attachments which come with the kit. Difficult but not impossible - more annoyance than problem. Overall, I hope these chains are absolutely never required; but, if they are, I'm confident they will work perfectly. 415050
all is well. The clasps on the chains have eased up a bit and are not nearly so hard to put on as they were at first. They are holding up very well!

Had to replace the hooks, they were too small to use with the Curt Chain loops that came with product C60618, otherwise they work great. Cadmium coating is better than most - no rust after a year outside. 636021
Easy to following Instructions, Good quality hardware, Fast Shipping. 390792
Product holding up great, After one year of use.
Jon L - 06/08/2018Quick and superior service! 718013
No issues and no rust. 716130
The Ford OEM Goosenech ball by B & W and safety chain arrived a day earlier than predicted. Everything was packaged very well and arrived in great condition. I have tried everything out and they work great! etrailer comes through again with great service, products and prices. Very happy with my purchase, products, and customer service. 708106
This is one of those purchases where you have absolutely no regrets. These safety chains are exactly what I was looking for and for a great price. They are much longer than I needed which is great because you can customize them to suit your needs. I did a lot of research before making this purchase. The safety latch provides a worry free installation. I could not recommend this product more. 704022

Outstanding 652708
Fast delivery, and chains were exatly as expected. 647670
Heavy duty chain. Satisfied! 647436
Chains are more glittery than I expected. Instructions only mentions fifth wheeler. Besides us doesn’t anyone have travel trailers anymore? But after adjusting the trailer a little bit they fit well and give a greater sense of security should the trailer become detached while moving again. 644762
It's just chains, at least they didn't rust.......Good product and service 616336
Overkilling maybe but why not. Chains look super duty to go along with my Demco 5th wheel hitch. Thanks (Santak} Kevin 609648
Had previously ordered the Reese Goosebox for my trailer with the excellent help of Lindy A. Realized I needed safety chains after I received the unit. Shipped the same day I ordered them so my trip was not held up at all. 576437
It was perfect. Thank you 573266
Cheerful help at eTrailer evolved into an enjoyable, easy to use vehicle - body-less Model A Ford - hold down system. We use this on the Forest Roads of Idaho. Great products accompanied with many ways to solve a problem. 556240
Top Notch 547603
Working good.
James - 07/29/2019Have taken a couple of trips and the extra length has worked out well with the chains not catching on the bottom of the ball bolt. After a year no rust is showing and the trailer has not fallen off yet. 522540
I love anything i have ordered from etrailer. I have recommended you guys to all my "horsey" friends and family. Thank you so much! 518157

These chains still look brand new after 1 year. Very heavy duty and I feel very confident that if needed they will provide much safety during a hitch failure/separation. 430426
Quick shipping and easy ordering. 421706

Great product, hopefully I won't need to use them. 379429
These chains are good quality. They showed up to my house 2 days after I ordered them. Very thankful for ETrailer. 377208
I ordered the safety chains to go along with a new goose box, we ordered. They were exactly what we needed, heavy duty, safety hooks, even came with mounting bolts. Better than advertised. Customer Service awesome. 373351
Does exactly what I expect it to do and looks good doing it! 346715
My sailboat trailer has a 25 ft tongue extension, but did not come with safety chains. The total load is over 10,000 lbs. These heavy duty safety chains provide the appropriate solution and give me peace of mind that if the ball coupling comes loose my rig will not submarine. 344893
Product is great! Wish it would have come included with my Reese Goosebox instead of as an extra option. I had no problems installing them. They were backordered for about three weeks, but they were worth waiting for. The staff at etrailer.com offered me alternative safety chains if I didn't want to wait. They were very good at keeping me informed when they would be available for shipping. Thanks! 310977
Exactly what I ordered and arrived on t ime. 302671
