Thread: Camper Safety Chains

Triggs and Tregg's aren't hard to use if you know how, I have found the best way is to get Gloria to do the reversing and I give the instructions and I'm the one who puts the pin in. This works a treat and we hitch up just as fast as most people do with a 2" ball and we don't need a hammer.

The other way is to not disconnect the Trigg coupling from the tow hitch, rather reverse the vehicle so the Haymen Reese hitch slides into the square receiver fitted to the vehicle and just slide the pin in. Incisor showed me that way when I bought his camper off of him and it is very easy.

Personally having towed various trailers with tow balls I would never go back to one and have not found to date a better coupling for smoothness and quiteness then either a Trigg or Tregg. Let alone how much articulation they give off road without stressing either the draw bar or the tow vehicle.

cheers,
Terry

The increase in length is not much more than most offroad hitches - and yes chain length is Ok if their length is correct ie the minimum length necessary to do the job.

Edit - the above applies to a Mitch Hitch so may not apply to the plow.
