I have a solution for you, but there is not a repair kit available for the Shelby 5136 coupler. However you can replace the coupler, and I recommend using the Channel Tongue Trailer Coupler - Trigger Latch - Zinc - 2" Ball - Bolt On - 5,000 lbs # CT-5003-Z to do so. This will bolt on to a 3 inch channel tongue and fits a 2 inch hitch ball, so it will fit in place of your older Shelby 5136 coupler.

I've also linked a short review video of this coupler for you to check out, but replacing the coupler in this case is a cost effective solution.
