Question:

I have a 2010 Puma travel trailer with a Ram CA5400 coupler. I need to replace the thumb latch parts. I cant find any parts for this coupler, just the entire coupler. Is there a way to repair this?

Expert Reply:

The coupler you referenced does not have replacement parts or a latch repair kit so if the thumb latch is busted you will need to replace the unit with the A-Frame Coupler # CA5400.

You can replace it with the same unit, the A-Frame Coupler # CA5400 which has has an oily finish but the same one is available without the oily finish and a black coat of paint, the A-Frame Trailer Coupler # CA-5400-B.

There is another option if you want to go with a different manufacturer, the Fulton A-Frame Coupler # F44314R0303 with a wedge latch.

These weld-on A-frame couplers each work with a 2-5/16" hitch ball and have a 14,000 lb capacity. If you are looking for added security with your new coupler I recommend the Master Lock Trailer Coupler Lock # ML389DAT due to its superior quality and durability, as evidenced by its lifetime warranty.

I have added links to video reviews of both couplers and the lock for you to take a look at.
