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 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 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…
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 Kris, the Dutton Lainson winch part #DL15440 does not come with a strap so you will need to order one with it. The part #DL24250 will work great with this winch as it is correct width, is 25 feet in length, and has a capacity of 3,700 lb WLL and…
We sure do Brian. We've actually got two center caps that are going to work with the Kenda Karrier KR53 ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire with 15" Black Aluminum Wheel item #KE58JV. Which one you go with is going to come down to personal…
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 Richard. The difference in the three MORryde hand rails is how far they extend away from the side of your trailer and how long the railing goes down the stairs. The MORryde item #MR34RV extends out 16" from the mounting point and has a…
If you're already prepped for a camera system it will most likely be for Furrion and you should see their shark fin camera mount #FRCBRKT-BL. If not, I'll need to know the brand to find the correct system to plug in. Assuming you are setup…
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 Clarendon, you're on the right track. You’re not wrong in how you’re thinking about this. You’re coming off a Flex Air, which is about as good as it gets for ride quality, especially paired with a B&W Companion. That rotating head plus…
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…
Your internet site is very well organized and easy to use...My order was shipped very promptly and included everything I ordered...All in all this was a simple procedure for what can be a complicated order. I would use your company again or recommend you to others. Your selection was broad and your prices fair.

Reliable Trailer Safety Chains for Peace of Mind
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 peace of mind, especially when towing heavy loads or navigating challenging terrains.
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.
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.
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.
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.
