[QUOTE="chevytaHOE5674, post: 1813865, member: 19817"] I use safety chains because you legally have to. I put ZERO faith in them controlling a loaded up gooseneck trailer. Those little 1/2" soft as butter bent up U-bolts ain't going to hold up when a 20k+ lbs trailer slaps against them. Been there and seen them snap off like toothpicks. One truck I have a homebuilt GN hitch with 2 welded on D-rings. Each one is rated for I think 45klbs. I do put faith in that setup. [/QUOTE]
