Hi George! The Demco Stay-IN-Play Duo #SM99251 will absolutely work on your 2026 Chevy Trax. Since it does not have a vacuum booster and you need to disconnect the battery when flat towing, you will need to leave the vacuum line and check valve open…
Hi Joseph, the 3,500 pound rating on part #C80136 is for each individual safety cable, not the pair. That said, the ratings are not added together, so the maximum weight of the vehicle or trailer being towed still cannot exceed 3,500 pounds. The…

Hook up your flat tow gear with confidence. Safety cables with quick links let you wrap around the frame to create solid attachment points or add a backup connection if the base plate ever lets go. To choose the right length, measure from where the base plate attaches to the nearest frame hole so the cables route cleanly without excess slack.
Coated steel cables hold up well outdoors, but try to prevent constant rubbing on the frame to protect the coating. If a spot gets chewed through, inspect it periodically and re-route to reduce abrasion. Keep the Quick Links snugly closed and check them along with the cable sheathing during routine hookups.
Plan on the listed capacity being for each cable, and used for emergency retention rather than a towing rating. Verify the product listing to confirm how the rating is stated and whether a working load is provided. Match your Quick Links and hooks to the cable ratings and make sure all parts fit each other cleanly.
Measure the path from the frame wrap point to your tow connection and allow enough slack for turns without dragging. Check the Quick Link opening and link diameter against your hook size to ensure they fit. The connectors can be larger than expected, so confirm they clear bumper openings or grill slots before committing.
Wrap short safety cables around each frame rail and secure the ends together with Quick Links. Then clip your main safety cables from the RV to those links. If using D-ring style adapters, still make the safety connection to the vehicle's frame. Avoid routing through small bumper holes that could pinch or bind the links.
