Insert the second bolt tight against the frame through the link plates from the
outside in. Slide on a split washer, then thread a 1/2” nut onto the bolt.
Bottom-mount Couplers
If your trailer has a bottom-mounted
coupler, is a V-nose trailer, or has
some other obstacle that makes installing the link plates in
the upright position difficult, install the link plates upside
down so that the single hole is below the trailer frame, and
the L-bracket studs are toward the bottom of the frame. See
Figure 10.
Top-mount Couplers
Place the link plates so the single hole is above the trailer
frame, and the L-bracket studs are toward the top of the
frame on the outside. See Figure 9.
Identify your coupler style.
See Figure 8.
