I needed to replace a Shelby 5104 coupler on my 25 year old flatbed trailer. etrailer recommended this one (CA5400B) as a replacement. I ordered it and Joshua B got it shipped out in record time. The CA 5400 coupler is pretty much an exact copy of the Shelby 5104. The new one fit like a glove and had good instructions on weld locations and sizes. The problem I encountered on the replacement was the old coupler had been welded in just about every location possible forcing me to have to cut it up in small pieces for removal. I’m back on the road, thanks etrailer.
Had a professional certifies welder stick weld this on for me. Worth the 3 hundred to do it Works but hard to engage the ball lock. Have to make sure you are as far forward as possible to drop it on the ball. The lock is a pain to engage sometimes have strike it to get it to lock in
Hasn't failed me yet and we've been using it religiously over the past year to haul scrap iron and derby cars. A little bit of silicone spray and TLC and it's still making me money. If it's still available when I need it, I'd still buy it. Nothing beats simplicity in a fast paced world. As for the quality, well, I just hope my welds last.

Well said, Junior! Sounds like it's working hard for you for sure -- here's to another solid year :)
thank you again for the correct parts the first time around. eTrailer is the best!
Great product! Can handle more weight than the one I took off.
I need it. You have it. I order it and it comes. Looks like it fits. Couldn't be better unless they installed it too.

Still there working.

Works great replaced old tunge when you would load something it would pop off the ball of hitch.
Product is good the shipping was way to slow I ordered it on the 5th and watched it sit for 3 days before getting packaged and finally sent out it said when I perchised it the I would receive it by the 10th so it didn’t come until the 12th so it was to late had to buy another one so now I don’t need it
Great products
Website easy to use. Found exactly what I needed. Very fair price. I needed the coupler soon so I used 3 day shipping. Came when scheduled. Was correct piece. I could not find this piece in my town. One of the trailer repair shops told me about the website. Will definitely use again when I need something for my trailers. Don’t have a picture but it looks like it did when the trailer was new.

Been working great! No issues. The powder coat has held up nicely and the coupler is still smooth.
Just purchased this coupler for the lowbed I am getting ready to rebuild. Like the look and the price of the coupler. Can't wait to cut away the mess the prior owner welded on. figuring the new coupler, jack, safety chains and wiring coupler box will make this a nice complete lowbed trailer to fill my needs for moving my 4x4 Cub Cadet tractor around for working on our properties.
Quality Seems Great. I did incur a problem with this coupler being slightly wider than the original one that I cut off. This could be in part that I'm switching from a 2" coupler to a 2-5/16". If this is just simply because it's wider you may want to purchase a new bottom jack support plate to install with this. Otherwise excellent service and fast delivery from etrailer yet again!!
Arrived when scheduled have not Installed yet. Matching ball size to my other trailers.

It works very well. Replaced a 2 side hinge so now I have all 2-5/16 ball hitches.
Th coupler was installed, and as far as I know, we have not had any issues with this product. The trailer is used regularly to haul steel for our structural steel fabrication shop. Thank you for your excellent service. We buy all of our equipment & trailer products from eTrailer.com.
Exact replacement for my 10,000 lb (gross trailer weight) enclosed cargo trailer. I had a professional welder install it, loaded the trailer to 10k, and pulled it 2,000 miles. Works and looks as expected.
We are very happy with our purchase and loving working with etrailer! The prices are great and items come quickly. Everyone at etrailer is always so helpful. We always get the small town feel when ordering from them. The coupler we ordered is exactly what was needed for our snowmobile trailer. Thanks!
etrailer is a great site, easy to use, everything came in a reasonable time and in one piece. The prices are very reasonable and I love the free shipping.
Item just as described. Perfect fit. The ONLY part bad on my old coupler was the spring that held the latch down. It would have been great IF someone offered a replacement spring for this BUT it is a welded unit and very hard to remove ANY moving parts. The coupler I ordered was perfect!
Everything I expected from etrailer A quality hitch
Package arrived pretty beat up but the coupler was in perfect condition. ( except for the made in china )
Looks like it will work well for what I need. 2 5/16 ball and rated for 14k lbs.
haven’t had it installed yet so 4 stars for now.
Great products, prices and shipping! Chains & tongue that had to be repaced are holding up great!
I looked in a lot of places on the web for this product and found it at etrailer for a good price on both the product and shipping.
The A frame coupler worked great etrailer always goes over and beyond to help out Thanks

Joshua is awesome for sure! I'll make sure he sees your review. And man! Took some elbow grease to get that old coupler off to say the least - happy to hear you're back up and running though :) what do you haul?
