Question:

Hello, I am looking to see if you guys still carry the Demco 12661-97 trailer coupler? I know there is a review on your site about the 12661-97, but it is under the page for the 12660-97 coupler. Demco still lists it is a valid PN on their site, but Im having trouble tracking it down. Thank you for your time

The 12660-97 Demco 50-Degree A-Frame Trailer Coupler with Easy Latch and Jack Hole - Primed - 2-5/16" Ball - 21,000 lbs # 12660-97SP is replacing the 12661-97. It is the newer version of the same part. Because it is replacing the part you referenced, we don't stock the previous number any longer. The manufacturer will probably keep the former part until all their stock is out before removing the number from their site.
