Expert Reply:

I am not quite sure what you currently have on your gooseneck trailer but we do have the Tow Ready Safety Chain Kit # 49150 which is 44" long, rated for 16,000 lbs, and has a clevis hook diameter of 5/16".

Let me know if this doesn't work out for you and I can see if we have something else that better fits your situation.
