Exaggeration can make a person money, so they often do it. Overall, the product is a good one, the cables are fairly rigid, but they are strong enough to hold it to the vehicle even under extreme circumstances.
On the packaging of both items, the length is indicated as A full extension of the cables is when they have no coiling, at which point the length should match. It eliminates slack and extra material that is present with other devices by providing a taut position for the cables with the coils.
Safety cables, similar to those shown above, are attached to my trailer. I find the coiled cable to be the best part. Their light weight, their ability to adjust to turn, and the fact that they don't drag on the ground make them

The fact that they keep their feet off the ground really appeals to me. Curt 81830 17/32 was also added while I was at it The inch trailer safety chain is certified by the The hook has a latch and can hold 7,600 pounds. A loop ends once the loop is complete. On the cables, they are identical to the ones installed by the manufacturer. Although it's a pain to close them to the cable, it works out in the end. The vise I used was a heavy duty bench vise with a cheater bar that fits within a six-inch block. In addition to changing the mounting point on the trailer, I modified the mounting plate. It was the perfect time for an upgrade with these Curt products. However, even though the coiled cables do not seem as strong as the very stout sea cables, they are as strong There are 7500 pounds of certification on the links.
As for the original chains, they were not rated appropriately for the trailer, but each of these cables individually exceeds its As compared to chains, they are also far more user-friendly. As the cable is used, it will float in a semi-rigid fashion The ground is no longer dragged as a result of the coiling. The S hook spring latch stays attached to the tow vehicle and allows them to easily attach to it. From now on, I will not have to worry about the hooks coming loose. It also gives me peace of mind that if I disengage the trailer mid-tow that the cables will keep it secure and prevent the trailer from completely separating My recommendation for these cables is that they are extremely well worth the price. As a result, I am now using them on all my trailers. It is a small price to guarantee the safety of others, after all.
As I intended, the safety cable should have been looped around the frame of my trailer near the hitch, but it didn't work out that way. Although the cable on this is the same size and has the same size loop end, I wasn't considering the cable insulation over the cable or the additional thickness of the cable ferule, but the alternative type of closures were much more expensive than the 4-way loop closures. The cost of the Reese's cookies was a dollar. The solution I came up with was to loop some chain I had over the frame, pass it through the eye of the cable, and then close it off with They are decent cables, but don't really extend out to the full length as I expected because there really isn't much room to stretch them out. As far as we know, they have not experienced any problems, so we are giving them 5 A star. I have a neighbor who recently hit the road without inserting a hitch pin in his receiver, he made it as far as the highway before both trailer and truck separated. A safety cable is required in many states, and my neighbor recently hit the road without it. As good as the fact that these cables prevented the trailer from slipping was, the fact that they made it all but impossible to slow down without having the trailer smash into the rear of your rig. To form a cradle for your hitch in the event of a problem, make sure the chains are crossed before attaching. It was the locking pin that goes through the hole in the hitch latch that I purchased that was the most valuable purchase. As a result, insurance in this state only covers you while the trailer is attached to the vehicle, so if the trailer comes loose and causes damage, that's another story.
It was already cut and taken off the card, but I'll keep the ties since they are a bit short and I've already removed them from the 40-inch card. It is for this reason that the stars are arranged symmetrically. Since I have to use chain to make them long enough, they would have been easy to install except for the fact that I have to get chain and use a short piece to make them ADVERTISE THE PRODUCT IN THE CORRECT WAY OR DO NOT ADVERTISE.
Now there will be no dragging, no sparking, and no safety chains to be concerned about. My trailers have a set on each of them. I've ordered several sets and have them on all of.
For my 23' Sea Ray boat trailer, I purchased these to replace the 23 year old, rusty safety cables that were about to fail. In addition, I replaced the old bolt with a grade 8 bolt, washers, and locknut, and I feel fully confident that this new set of cables will operate successfully. It's easy to install, and it seems to be of.
It's good that the cable retracts when it's not being used and that there is no danger of dragging them on the ground as well. I would like the company to consider making two or three lengths of such cables, since they are too long for my application. We are satisfied with the overall outcome.
It was my first time using them, but they did not drag and seemed to work beautifully. The installation was quick and easy, even on a trailer dunked in salt water every day. The chains on the trailer needed to be replaced, and this was the perfect alternative.
