I would think that if the chain breaks, then most caribeners are also going to break.
Not sure what could ever cause the chains to break other then a violent wreck? The break away cable is in case the receiver comes of the ball for whatever reason. The cable is designed to disengage if the truck pulls it out of the trailer which only happens if bad things go down. The chains should still be connected and crossed so the tongue jack doesn't hit the ground
