Extending Safety Chains
If I need to extend (or replace) the safety chains on my trailer, do I use the loaded weight of the trailer to determine what capacity of the safety chain/cable I need? Thanks!

Cool. Thanks. The reason I ask is because ProPride says you don't need their extension kit if your hook ups extend 24" past the front of the trailer. Our wiring harness is 28" past, the brake cable is 30" past (seems long), but the chains are only 26" past. I'm thinking that just a heavy duty (properly treated) quick link or two on either side would be enough length extension. Thoughts? Especially from ProPride owners. As always ... much thanks! :-)
