I will comment on the safety chains for the Andersen.... I had gotten in the habit of hooking the safety chain hook to the eye bolt when not attached to the truck so that they didn't hang way down.
I had two instances where the dealer and the storage place bent my eyebolts. I couldn't figure out why until one day I was hooking up and my wife noticed that with the hooks hanging from the eyebolts while connecting the trailer, the hooks can get pinched between the Andersen and the eyebolt causing it to bend the eyebolts.
Now, I hang the hook on the back of the pinbox so they aren't near the Andersen when connecting the trailer.
