Question:
I currently own a 21foot bass boat that uses safety cables. I recently purchased a Chevrolet Silverado 3500. The S hooks are too small to fit in class V hitch. What options do I have to replace the S hooks?

Expert Reply:
A smaller S-hook like the Curt # C81830 can indeed be too small for the sturdy safety chain loops on a Class V hitch like # C15860. You might prefer the Roadmaster 80" Coiled Safety Cables - Double Hook - 10,000 lbs - Qty 2 # RM-653. This cable set includes quick-links for flexibility. All safety cables and safety chains are linked for your review.
