Gooseneck Trailer Safety Chain Replacement Recommendation Measuring at Least 41" Long
Updated 01/05/2026 | Published 09/12/2024
Question:
Hi, I have a 2021 Ram 2500 Diesel 4-door short bed 4x4 Laramie with the factory gooseneck prep package and factory gooseneck ball and pucks. The trailer is a gooseneck living quarters horse trailer. The current safety chains connection point on the trailer and the chains themselves are 3/8, but are TOO SHORT to reach the factory pucks. Can you provide me with part numbers or links for a 41-42 3/8 safety chains with hooks big enough to fit the factory pucks? Thank you in advance!

Hey Nathan, thanks for reaching out!
For your application I recommend picking up the Reese Safety Chain Kit with Clevis Hooks # RP49151 which are rated for 20,000 lbs, measure 44" long, and have a 3/8" chain link diameter.

Hey Nathan, how did the Reese safety chains work out with your Ram’s factory gooseneck setup? Your results could really help others trying to match chain length and hook size for similar trailers.
