  • Recommended Ball and Coupler Size to Haul a 3,500 Racecar
  • For a trailer that is going to be hauling 3,500 lbs, I would recommend a 2" ball and coupler. We have many different options to choose from for both. For the ball and ball mount we have the etrailer Ball Mount Kit for 2" Hitches # 989900. This kit is nice because it comes with a 2", 2 5/16", and 2 ball mounts. The trailer coupler is going to be a little bit more specific to what shape your trailer tongue is. Straight and A-frame couplers are our most popular trailer couplers. I recommend...

  • Replacement A-Frame Coupler and Jack For Big Tex Trailer With Atwood 88555 2" Trailer Coupler
  • You will need to replace your entire coupler assembly as the Atwood coupler that you have is obsolete and they are not producing any parts for it. I recommend replacing it with the Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler # DM14791-97. This coupler uses the same 2" size hitch ball of your Atwood coupler and the eZ-Latch coupler will make connecting to your trailer much easier as you no longer need to raise the latch. You will be able to mount any A-Frame style jack that has a 2-1/4" diameter outer...

  • Looking for Replacement Channel Mount Coupler
  • It looks like you're needing a cast coupler that mounts to a channel that's welded to the trailer, is that correct? If you're needing the coupler with a 2-5/16 inch ball, the Bulldog # BDA2563C0317 should work well for you. If you're needing a coupler lock, I'd recommend # e98886. The coupler does include the channel mount.

  • Is the Dutton-Lainson Trailer Coupler DL13835 the Same as the DL13889
  • The Dutton-Lainson Trailer Coupler part # DL13835 is a direct replacement for the older Dutton-Lainson Trailer Coupler part DL13889. They are not the same but this what you would use if you had the old coupler and needed to replace it. They both have the same weight capacity, ball size, and mounting dimensions so you will be good to go with the above.

  • Availability Of Receiver Tube To Attach To Tongue Of Trailer For Ark Off-Road Coupler AR44FR
  • I have another option for you, but there is not a trailer coupler that already has a 2" receiver tube for installing an off-road coupler like the Ark Articulating Off-Road Coupler for 2" Receivers - Trailer Side - 2" Ball # AR44FR you were looking at. Instead you will need to have a coupler like the # 337RT25806B welded to the tongue of your trailer for the AR44FR to install into, and install the included 2" hitch ball onto the ball mount on your tow vehicle. I included videos for each...

  • Replacement Coupler Needed for Tie Down Engineering 66 Model Actuator
  • I was able to find that your Tie Down Engineering 66 Model actuator fits trailer tongues that are 3"x3", 3"x4", and 3"x5". It is only compatible with 2" hitch balls but I was unable to find the mounting hole measurements. We do have a wide variety of actuators like the Dexter # 099-175-20 or standard couplers like part # DM12925. Since you say straight coupler I am not sure if you are looking for an actuator that doesn't have a drop or if you are looking for a standard coupler. If you...

  • Channel Mount Trailer Coupler Alternative for 2-1/2" Channel
  • All of our channel mount trailer couplers fit a 2-7/8" or 3" channel so if you wanted to get one from us you'll need to cut off your old channel and weld on a new one like what we see with the Demco Channel and Coupler Kit # DM6125-81. Aside from that, if you're wanting one that fits a 2-1/2" channel we unfortunately don't have anything to fit that need.

  • Replacement Trailer Coupler with 6-1/2 Inches Between Bolt Holes
  • The Demco Channel Tongue Trailer Coupler # DM12717 mentioned in your question is going to provide the closest bolt hole dimension to the existing coupler on your trailer that we currently have available. The distance from the front mounting hole to the rear mounting hole is 5 inches on center. When installing the coupler on your trailer, you should be able to use the existing holes on the trailer tongue for the front bolts. You will then just need to drill new holes for the remaining bolts....

  • Recommend Replacement Trailer Coupler For 3 Inch Channel and 2 Inch Ball
  • The item you selected, Master Lock Trailer Coupler, part # F223000301, has a bolt hole spacing of 3 inches from center to center. This coupler should work on your trailer if it has a 3 inch channel. I walked out to our warehouse and measured a coupler with the same bolt hole spacing, Dutton-Lainson Trailer Coupler, part # DL13897. It measured approximately 2.5 inches between the holes and 3 inches from center of hole to center of hole.

  • A-Frame Coupler and Trailer Jack Replacement for Shelby 5101 Trailer
  • I looked up your Shelby 5101 trailer and it is an a-frame trailer that has a weld on a-frame coupler that has a jack mounting hole built into it. So since the coupler uses a non-standard bolt pattern for the jack I'd recommend replacing the coupler and jack together like with the # CA5100B for a coupler and then for a jack the # TJA-5000S-B would be a great option.

  • Is Replacement Hardware Sold For Sleeve-Lock Trailer Coupler CTA-196?
  • We do not sell just the mounting hardware for an adjustable coupler such as the Sleeve-Lock # CTA-196 you were looking at. That said, the hardware is just grade 8 bolts that are at least 3-1/2" long, and you can pick them up from a local hardware store.

  • Why Is There Slop In My Trailer Coupler When Mounted To the 2-5/16" Hitch Ball?
  • If you have a lot of excess slop in your coupler then you will likely need to replace the coupler latch. A coupler latch like the one in the Repair Kit for Titan Couplers # T1848700 will wear down over time and will need replaced when it wears down. If you can identify what coupler you have I can help you find the correct repair kit for your Coupler. The White Grease Hitch Ball Lube # 58117 will help to prevent the coupler latch from wearing down as quickly and also reduce some of the...

  • Replacement Disc Brake Surge Coupler for 2004 Nitro Boat Trailer
  • We can help you with a new surge brake coupler for your straight-tongue boat trailer. Your photo shows a label indicating the old coupler is designed for disc brakes which will use a coupler with higher pressure than a coupler for drum brakes. For a 7K disc brake coupler you can use Demco part # DM62VR which includes an electric lockout feature. It fits a 3-inch wide channel tongue and uses 1/2 x 4-1/2 Grade-5 bolts for mounting.

  • Replacement Parts For Fulton Straight channel Coupler For 1-7/8 Inch Trailer Ball
  • I spoke with my contact at our supplier and they no longer supply the repair kits for 1-7/8 inch straight channel couplers. They told me that what most customers have been doing is purchasing the coupler and removing the parts they need to do the repair. I cannot recommend the Husky Repair Kit, part # HT87082 you referenced because manufacturers do not test fit components made by other companies. Many times the coupler is a bolt-on, and can be easily replaced. If the coupler has been...

  • Is There A Repair Kit For The Trailer Coupler Latch on a Fulton 2" Ball Coupler?
  • Fulton does not carry a repair kit for your 2" ball coupler. I recommend replacing your coupler with one easier to use like the Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler # DM14793-81. This coupler can be bolted on and if the coupler latch wears our it can be replaced with the Repair Kit # DM6109. With this eZ-Latch system you only need to raise the handle to disconnect the trailer. This makes it much easier to just drop the trailer onto the ball and not add additional stress to the parts. I recommend...
