Hey Scott, congrats on the new truck. To add safety chains to a Gen-Y Nomad like item # GY57ND , you'll need the Safety Chain with 2 Hooks item # GY49GR. These chains will attach to the safety chain loops of the B&W Ball and Safety Chain Kit item # BWGNXA2061.

This chain kit is specific to the Gen-Y Gooseneck pin boxes so it will attach with the included hardware without drilling.

What kind of 5th wheel trailer do you have?

Hey Scott, how did the 44-inch Reese safety chains work with your Goose Box and the B&W safety chain kit on your F-350? It’d be great to know if the length and hook size fit your setup as expected. Your update could make it easier for others pairing the same components.

@Scott They're no longer available due to Draw-Tite's parent company filing for bankruptcy. The BulletProof Hitches 1/2" Safety Chains with Clevis Hooks item # BPH26RR is going to be the closest comparable option.
