Published 11/05/2015
Question:
Im interested in purchasing the safety chain loop e950 to install on my hitch. Can you tell me how many inches to install it on the underside of the hitch from the front opening of the hitch. Thank you

Expert Reply:
As long as a qualified welder is used, a Safety Chain Attachment Loop like part # E950 could be welded to the receiver as shown in the photo I provided. Having an amateur welder weld it could result in the hitch being weakened. This would be the best and easiest solution for you.
There's no set distance that you should have it welded on the hitch at, but if you use the picture I attached as a guide you would be just fine.
