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!

No, don't use a quick link or any other kind of device like this. They have no where near the strength needed if the trailer comes loose and gives it a good jerk.
I agree, hook it up with the new hitch and if you need more chain length, buy enough to do the job. Not that hard to change out the chains and you have the strength if you should ever need it.
