Today we'll be having a look at the Etrailer replacement spring for 7,000-lb and 12,500-lb ram sleeve lock couplers, part number CA-5196-SPR. Here's what our replacement spring looks like, we'll flip our coupler over here and we'll show you what this is used for. This spring is what pushes open our coupler so it'll lock down onto our ball. What you need to do to get it out, just grab a hold of it, remove it, take your new one, push it in the hole, push back down, and that gives you the spring loaded action you need to hook your coupler up to your ball so you can tow your trailer. The reason you need one of these replacement springs is in case you misalign and try to put your ball on, you might pop the spring out and lose it, overtime these could get damaged too from becoming weak and brittle. It makes it a lot easier to hook your coupler of your trailer up to your ball. That completes our look at the Etrailer replacement spring for 7,000-lb and 12,500-lb ram sleeve lock couplers, part number CA-5196-SPR.

Replaces the spring from the collar of your etrailer or Ram sleeve-lock trailer coupler. Fits couplers with a 7,000-lb and 12,500-lb capacity.this isn't so much about the spring, but the ability to get a small part to repair a larger part of a trailer and save hundreds of dollars. I thought I was going to have to buy a complete new hitch, instead, I was able to get this minor and inexpensive part and repair my hitch.
This is a part that I was surprised to be able to get. It enabled me to get the hitch that I damaged through a dumb mistake working like new again.
Worked as described. Perfect replacemen t.
Worked fine for my trailer hitch
Really quick delivery and reasonable pricing on the item I needed.
Quick and good service,have not installed yet waiting for spring it’s the right one.
These are great to keep around as the hitch tends to drop them and usually when you are distracted and miss it.
Excellent personnel. Had a slight issue with shipping. They corrected the problem and shipped another spring. Would highly recommend to use for any trailer supplies. Will definitely use again when needed.
I have an older trailer - 1997 Thoroughsport.
This spring works, but is a tiny bit small. I think one more rotation of wire would do the trick.
I need to be mindful were it is, when hitching up to the truck, so it doesn't fall out, and I lose it in the grass/dirt.
Spring felt weak and short. I installed and time will tell.
Outstanding
Ordered on the 18 of July. It is the 21 of July and I have not received my spring. Makes me sad you guys are asking for a review and I have not received my product
Fast service. Would order again.
It's a spring like no other. all the curves are right and tight. Feeling as the spirals go on and on and on. The compression is a pulse quickening sensation, just as though it the first time.
Exactly what I needed and one of only a few that had in stock and at a great price!
Perfect that’s exactly what I needed
Just what I needed
It was easy to install.
If ever there was a doubt in your mind about ordering from etrailer, erase that doubt because this is the best company around to take care of all your trailer needs. It is also helpful that they have best sales representatives to make sure your needs are met with the right parts. After this last transaction, my go to saleslady is Pat C. She took my order on Wednesday late afternoon, followed up with an email an hour later stating that my order was going to ship that evening. Well, Friday by noon, it was delivered. This part, along with the other parts in my order, were installed in just a matter of minutes and now my trailer can be pulled legally on any road. Thank you etrailer & Pat C. You've both made me a customer for life.
The spring was not right for the trailer coupling. All I had to go by was the picture found on your web sight, which I fully realize is not the right way to go about ordering something of this nature. This certainly does not in any way reflect on your company.
I would not hesitate to order form you in the future.
My failure was my fault not yours.
fast service
Very fast delivery and was just what I ordered.
Hard to find items can be found!
Excellent service I don’t see how etrailer could improve on anything. Excellent Company
It did Exactly what I needed it to do

Still a smidge too small. I have decided to just leave it out and live without it.
