I needed a narrower way to attach my weight distribution hitch chains, since I had added a locking box on my travel trailer front frame for new batteries and my 4KW inverter...The the old folding-style chain hook brackets were too wide to clear the box when folded up, and these were the answer.. (An added benefit was that I couldn't lose the pipe chain hook handle anymore!) Now, my locking DeeZee box should be able to stop those battery thieves, and even if they can get in, those big and heavy 6V group 27 AGM batteries won't do them a lot of good! These were perfect for my need to attain a vertical WDH chain setup after installing the battery box.. Good stuff!

Great! They were judt what zi needed!

Product was just as advertised. Fit perfectly. I looked at a 2 bolt verticle design and am glad I didn't buy them.(they were also 3X the money) These were just the right fit near my propane tanks. I would highly recommended this part and dealer. Shipping was fast and packaging was professional.

Still confidently working!

The chain Hangers I bought were much better than the pictures illustrate - being quite sturdy, and pretty easy to install. One thing that would improve them is a taper on the end of the attachment bolts long enough so the threads won't get damaged at all and these hangers could be moved easily to work on more than one trailer.

Do you have a question about this Accessories and Part?
  • Looking for Replacement Spring Bars and Frame Brackets for Curt Weight Distribution
    Hey Dan, it sounds like you are in need of replacement 1,000 lb spring bars for your Curt weight distribution system which we offer with the part # C17337. For frame mounted chain hangers then we have the part # C17003. Do both of these match what you need or do you have a different style of system like a round bar instead of trunnion?

  • Bolt Sizes and Bracket Dimensions of Chain Hangers for Curt Weight Distribution Systems
    I went out to the warehouse and pulled Curt chain hanging brackets # C17003 to take some measurements. There are 2 sets of bolts included. The short set is 1/2-13 x 2 inches and the longer set is 1/2-13 x 3-1/2 inches. The brackets measure 4 inches long (measuring front to back along the trailer frame). They are 3-3/8 inches tall on the inside and 3-5/8 inches tall on the outside. And they are 3-3/16 inches deep on the inside, 3-13/16 inches deep on the outside. I have included a picture...

  • Can L-Brackets Be Used Instead Of Chain Hangers For Chain Spring Bars?
    For chain type spring bar weight distribution hitches you must use a Chain Hanger # C17003. The L-Brackets # BLU42QR can only be used for systems designed to ride on this type of bracket. I recommend matching your manufactures for the spring bars and the hangers to ensure everything is compatible.

  • Can Curt Chain Hanger Brackets be Used with a Pro Series Weight Distribution System
    Although each Weight Distribution (WD) system manufacturer has their own chain brackets, they are a pretty universal fit. The Curt hangers, parts # C17003, # C17005, and # C17008, haven't been tested with a Pro Series WD system but they should fit and work just fine. If you would rather go with chain hangers from Pro Series then you would need to go with part # RP6637 which is technically a Reese brand, but they have the same parent company so they are pretty identical.

  • Does the Trailer Need to Be Jacked Up to Install Chains on Chain Hangers # C17003
    Yes, you will need to use your trailer jack to jack up both the trailer and the rear of your vehicle so that you can attach the chains of your weight distribution system to the hangers # C17003 that you referenced. I attached an FAQ on weight distribution systems for you to check out as well.

  • Do Alternate Chain Lift Brackets C17003 Change Setup of Weight Distribution Hitch
    Using a different chain hanger bracket like # C17003 or # C17005 (that bolt on) for a weight distribution system may mean that the number of chain links will change. In this case the number of links does not matter; what matters is that the system be set up so that it still gives you the appropriate tension on the spring bars to level your vehicle and trailer.

  • Weight Distribution System for 5,000 Pound V-Nose Trailer
    For V-nose trailers like what you have that feature limited A-frame space, we typically recommend using chain hangers like the Curt # C17005 for a bolt-on installation or # C17003 for a clamp-on application. These will mount to the side of the trailer frame (instead of the top) to provide an alternate attachment point for the spring bars on a weight distribution system. Each weight distribution system will list a recommended distance from the hitch ball to where the lift brackets should...

  • Will The Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution Hitch Fit A Trailer A-Frame Using C-Channel?
    You will be able to use the Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System # C17501 on your trailer tongue which uses C-channel. Since the frame mounts bolt around the frame it does not require a square tubed frame like the Chain Hangers # C17003.

  • Replacement Part For Curt Trunnion Style Weight Distribution
    I'm not sure what L-clips you are describing in the Curt Weight Distribution System, but hopefully one of these replacement parts will be what you were describing. We have the Replacement Hook Up Brackets for Curt Weight Distribution Systems # C17208, the Chain Hangers for Curt Weight Distribution Systems - Clamp On # C17003 or bolt on # C17005. We have the Replacement Lift Bracket for Curt Weight Distribution Systems # C17008. We also have the Curt Spring Bar Retainer Package for...

  • Would the Curt Chain Hanger part # C17003 fit 3 Inch Channel Trailer Frame
    Actually the inside width of the frame channels of the Curt Hangers part # C17003 that you referenced is 3-3/16 inches so it would only be a little bit wider than the 3 inch channel of your trailer frame. And even if your trailer was half an inch narrower than the hanger this kit comes with pretty long set screws to take up that distance. So to answer your question, yes this kit will work for you. The best way to pick out a weight distribution system is to base it off of the loaded tongue...

  • What Pole-Tongue Adapter and Chain Hangers Do I Need for My Sea-Lion Trailer?
    The Reese Pole-Tongue Adapter for Weight Distribution Systems - 14,000 lbs GTW, 1,400 lbs TW # RP58393 will work on your Sea-Lion Trailer if your Sea-Lion Trailer has the following weight distribution systems installed: Reese round-bar, trunnion-bar, Steadi-Flex, and it can also work with other systems despite what the page says.. However, it's unlikely you will need chain hangers Chain Hangers Clamp # C17003 when using the Tongue Adapter.
