[QUOTE="chevytaHOE5674, post: 1813896, member: 19817"] When the coupler comes off and the safety chains are holding the trailer the force on those chains as it slaps back and forth is tremendous. In fact from personal experience a loaded up 14k gooseneck that comes un-attached can shear off 5/16" G70 safety chain and equally rated hook when trying to get undercontrol from 65mph. It also wipes the truck around like a toy. The chain and hook pictured isn't rated anything close to 5/16 G70. [/QUOTE]
