Coupler Recommendation to Fit 3 inch Wide Coupler

Question

Question:

I had the breaks on my 14 foot Jayco trailer replaced. They used to be surge breaks they are now electrical. My coupler was a 83010 Now I need a straight coupler with and external width of 3.5 inches. Any idea which coupler? Thanks

It's very unlikely your trailer has a channel that is 3-1/2 inches wide as that's not a common size at all. The part # 83010 that you referenced is designed to fit a 3 inch wide channel so what you would want is the # DM13203-95 which is a 18k coupler that would work well.
