Channel Mount Trailer Coupler for 3 Inch Wide Channel
Question:
Im curious if the spacing between the bolts on adjustable trailer couplers is standard, or if i need to measure the spacing between bolt holes on my channel bracket and match it to one of your adjustable couplers?

There is pretty much a standard for channel mount couplers such as # DM12113-95. The channel width is usually 3 inches and the couplers are usually around 2-7/8 inches wide to fit in the 3 inch wide channel. Once torqued down there is no side to side movement because the coupler essentially is clamped in. Holes are usually spaced 2 inches apart on center which is the vertical hole spacing in a channel this coupler would work with.
But it never hurts to measure just to be sure. For mounting bolts I recommend # PS024202. And for a coupler latch lock I recommend our lock # e98889.
