Wide A-Frame Coupler Recommendation for a Trailer
Question:
I need a trailer coupler thats at least 15 1/2 at the widest point which one do I get
asked by: Butch
Expert Reply:
I did some checking and the a-frame coupler with the most distance at the widest point is the Bulldog Collar-Lok coupler part # BD028384. This coupler has a 11 inches at the widest point. Is there a reason you need one that wide? All that really matters is the angle of the coupler as it matches your frame. Nearly all A-frame trailer have a 50 degree angle where the coupler installs. The # BD028463 would install on a 50 degree angled A-frame trailer.
