Safety Chains Andersen Hitch
I have ordered the Andersen Hitch after reading the responses to my earlier question posted here about the hitch. Now I am wondering how necessary are the safety chains that are now sold as an option...

Never heard of chains on a 5th wheel, just the break-away switch.
Gooseneck/ball hitches require safety chains.

Anderson is a ball hitch no different than a gooseneck. Just because Anderson calls it The Ultimate Fifth Wheel hitch, doesn’t make it a 5th wheel hitch, just a gooseneck raised above the bed of the TV. Last count 37 states required safety chains for gooseneck hitches.
