THE CODY SAFETY CHAIN
SYSTEM
Users of Gooseneck Trailers
are aware of the presence of "safety chain laws" that are on the
books of most states in the USA as well as neighboring countries.
These laws appear to vary somewhat from jurisdiction to jurisdiction,
however the choices that you, as a user of this type of hitch might have,
generally fall into two types.
-
A type of mechanism that
attaches to the Gooseneck Ball - and usually can be removed,
especially if the ball is reversible.
-
U bolts which attach to
the center section of the hitch itself, usually requiring additional
hole drilling in the bed bottom of the vehicle during the installation
process.
The above options are still
available, if specified OTHERWISE.
Most Cody Gooseneck Hitches are
now being shipped with the unique Cody Safety Chain System which consists
simply of 2 (two) hook like devices made of heat treated (hardened) steel,
as illustrated in the photo below.
These safety chain hooks come
in pairs. There is a right and a left. They are heat treated
for additional strength. One of the hooks is 2" longer than the
other. This is necessary because the holes at the base of the ball
which they are inserted, are positioned diagonally. Additional sets
of hooks are available if the user has more than one trailer, and would
like to install a set on all of his trailers. This safety chain
system requires no additional drilling of holes in the bed bottom of your
truck, yet utilizes the strength of the center beam of the hitch.
THIS IS WHAT YOU CALL THE
BEST OF BOTH WORLDS!
AND IT'S FOUND ONLY WITH
A CODY!!
CODY HITCH
Safety Chain Hooks
Unique and efficient 'safety chain
hooks' drop and turn into the CODY HITCH center beam at the
base of the ball; thus utilizing the strength of the center beam.
The trailer chain may be permanently
fastened to the hooks or the chain's clevis may hook into the
'hook's' enclosed eyelets.
