How long should trailer safety chains be RSS
Safety Chains are Important!
Safety chains are one of your trailer’s most essential parts and are crucial in towing a trailer safely. Safety chains attach the trailer to the hitch of the tow vehicle. The chains should be strong enough to hold the tow vehicle’s weight and the trailer, should they need to do so. Each chain should have a different attachment point to the tow vehicle. Having safety chains of the correct length is extremely important for safety. You should ALWAYS crisscross your safety chains beneath the hitch and coupler. While crisscrossing them, be sure that you’ve allowed enough slack in the chains...
