I definitely understand how safety chain capacities and determining exactly what chain rating you need for your trailer can be a bit confusing. To keep it as simple as possible, safety chain requirements state that the breaking strength of EACH…
Hey Brian! It looks like you decided to go with the MORryde GooseTech #MR27MV, which is a great option. However, the GVWR of your 2023 Keystone Montana 3231CK is 16,680 lbs and this is designed for 18k+. Also, did you verify that your pin box bolt…
Hey William, I did some checking and your 2026 Brinkley G3950 does have a Lippert Goose Box style pin box and has a GVWR of 21k so the correct MORryde Goosetech would be the part #MR24MV that you referenced so you were on the right track! How do you…
Hey William, so the 3 inch hitches do use the larger hitch pin diameter but the 2-1/2 inch hitches still use the smaller one. So with a reducer like the part #38735 technically you would use both sizes. If you check out the picture I attached you can…
It really depends on your setup, if the safety chain loops on your tow vehicle are spaced far apart then you will need more slack to make a tight turn then if they were closer together. What I would recommend you do is connect your trailer to your…
Hey Mark, so the CE Smith chain part #CES42QR has a diameter of 1/4 inch which means the inside width of the chain link is .43 inch which is the max diameter bolt that could pass through it.

Hey Garret, I was not able to verify for sure what pin box model your 2021 Coachmen Chapparal Lite 30bhs has so I can't say for certain at the moment. Can you check the pin box on the trailer now and look for a sticker or tag with the model…

Hey Joe, that's a great question but the 7,600 lb capacity for the CE Smith Safety Chains is for the pair and not individually. How much capacity are you needing?
Hey Terry! Safety chains like the Gen-Y #GY49GR you looked at will work with the MORryde GooseTech 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box #MR99MV. The safety chain slot can handle 3/8" or 5/16" so either size will fit. MORryde actually came out…

Secure Your Haul with 3,500 lbs Trailer Safety Chains
For those towing up to 3,500 lbs, these safety chains are essential. They provide peace of mind by ensuring your trailer stays connected even in unexpected situations. Perfect for small to medium trailers, these chains are a must-have for safe and secure towing.
3,500 lbs safety chains are crucial for ensuring your trailer remains attached to your vehicle in case of a hitch failure. They are designed to handle the weight of small to medium trailers, providing an extra layer of security and peace of mind during your travels.
Look for chains with durable materials like steel, corrosion resistance, and easy-to-use hooks. Ensure they meet or exceed the weight capacity of your trailer. Proper length is also key to allow for smooth turns without dragging.
Attach the chains in a crisscross pattern under the trailer tongue. This setup helps catch the tongue if it disconnects. Ensure the chains have enough slack for turns but aren't dragging on the ground. Regularly check for wear and tear.
No, using chains rated for 3,500 lbs on heavier trailers can be unsafe. Always match the chain's weight capacity to your trailer's GTW to ensure safety. For heavier loads, opt for chains with a higher weight rating.
These chains offer reliable security for lighter trailers, are easy to handle, and provide peace of mind. They are often made from high-quality materials that resist rust and wear, ensuring long-lasting performance and safety on the road.
