  • What is the Metal Thickness of etrailer CA-5100-Z Weld-On 2-Inch A-Frame Trailer Coupler
  • The etrailer brand # CA-5100-Z is manufactured in China. It's constructed of 1/8 inch thick stamped zinc plated steel, which works out to be 11 gauge. For a US made 2 inch weld-on A-Frame coupler of the same thickness, I'd recommend the Dutton-Lainson # DL14008 which is constructed of 11 gauge stamped steel that features tough enamel finish. The coupler has a 5000 lb capacity, like the # CA-5100-Z coupler you'd looked at.

  • Will the Convert-A-Ball Gooseneck Coupler Adapter # CAB-C5G Handle Long Trips
  • You should have no problem using the Convert-A-Ball Gooseneck Coupler Adapter, # CAB-C5G, on a 1,200 mile trip as long as the gross weight of your trailer remains under 20,000 lbs and the pin weight is under 4,000 lbs.

  • VIN Location On 2000 Haulin Trailer
  • Vin numbers are usually located on the trailer tongue near the coupler. It is normally an alpha numeric number with 17 digits and can technically be anywhere on the trailer, so you will need to examine the entire frame closely. The VIN is usually stamped into a plate that is attached to the trailer but is could be stamped in the trailer frame somewhere. If you cannot find the VIN, your State Highway Patrol is usually the call to get an appointment for them to assign a VIN for you....

  • Is the Aluminum A-Frame Trailer Tongue Toolbox 350970 Waterproof
  • Aluminum A-Frame Trailer Tongue Toolbox Item # 350970 is weather resistant but not waterproof. For something to be considered waterproof it has to be able to be submerged under water for a certain period of time and not let water in. None of the toolboxes are waterproof but as far as keeping out rain they can do that just fine.
