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 there Caleb! Both the 2 inch and 2-5/16 inch balls supplied with the #WS97WR (adjustable 8" drop) fall under the same 22,000-lb hitch rating. Just make sure the ball matches your trailer coupler size, and always go by the lowest-rated part…
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?
The closest light we have to the part #TN73TR that is amber would be the part #TN23TR which is very similar but has a slightly different mounting design.
Hi Mike; can you send me your axle information? Is it a 3,500 lb axle? If I had to guess it is likely a 3,500 lb axle on there right now. Assuming you have the standard 3,500 lb bearing combination you can use the DeeMaxx Disc Brake Kit #DE66YR. This…
I am not aware of a bolt-on version of the Buyers Products Weld-On Safety Chain Retainer part #3375471000. However, if all you were wanting to do is mount your safety chains to the tongue of your trailer then you will just simply do so by running a…
In order to find the correct replacement hubs for your Shoreland'r boat trailer, you need to first know what bearings your current hub has. You will need to take apart your current hub assembly and look at the bearings themselves; wipe away the…
The Dometic RV Water Heater part #DMC74FR will work great as a replacement for an Atwood GC6AA-9E. They are both gas and electric with a six gallon tank. It will allow you to reuse the existing door already on the trailer. The swap should be pretty…
Hey Jeff, The specs you are looking for on that B & W tongue weight scale, #BW34KR, are below. Since this is a brand new item from B & W there is no earlier date to get this yet as it is set to release fall of 2025. The over all capacity of…
It will but you're not going to be able to do a full turn. The Reese Goose Box 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Air Ride Coupler Adapter item #RP59KR isn't any shorter than a standard pin box. If your F-350 has the puck system you can use the Gen-Y…
The Smart Diode kit #RM47ZR you installed is designed for use with Gladiators that have ParkSense Proximity Sensors with LED lights. If you don't have these sensors or you have incandescent lights then that could be a possible cause for the…
If you want to just add on some sort of extension you can use Safety Chain Quick Link #C82932 which has a working load limit of 3300-lbs. This will give you about 3-inches additional length. Ideally trailer safety chains will be one continuous chain,…
Trailer safety chains are essential for ensuring your trailer stays connected to your vehicle in case of a hitch failure. When choosing chains, consider the weight of your trailer and the length needed for secure attachment. High-quality chains provide pe
Look for chains with a high weight rating, corrosion-resistant materials, and sturdy hooks or latches. Some chains come with retainers for easy replacement and added security. A good chain should provide peace of mind in emergency situations.
Yes, safety chains are versatile and can be used for various trailers, from boat trailers to utility trailers. Ensure the chains' weight capacity matches your trailer's load and that the hooks fit your hitch's attachment points.
Measure the distance from your trailer's hitch to the vehicle's attachment point. Chains should be long enough to allow for turns but short enough to prevent dragging. Adjustable links or quick links can help customize the fit.
Regularly inspect your chains for signs of wear, rust, or damage. Clean them after exposure to saltwater or harsh conditions. Lubricate moving parts like hooks to ensure smooth operation and replace any damaged components promptly.
Consider the weight capacity of the chains to match your trailer's load. Ensure the length is appropriate for your setup, allowing enough slack for turns but not so much that they drag. Look for durable materials that resist rust, especially if used in wet conditions.
