That is correct the inner dimension of the Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler item # DM14793-95 is 10 3/4 inches. I have attached a picture that breaks down the measurements. You would need to fabricate a spacer on either side to attach this coupler to your trailer. The Bulldog Heavy-Duty Cast Head Coupler w/ Wedge Latch item # BD43805W0317 is a weld on coupler that has a 10 1/4 inch inner measurement. I have attached a picture of it also. view full answer...
Yes, you will be able to remove the master cylinder from the Titan Brake Actuator - Painted - Drum - 2-5/16" Ball - Weld On - 12,500 lbs, part # T1607500. This is a direct replacement, so you will not need a reducer. The master cylinder you need is for a drum brake actuator. It is the Replacement Master Cylinder and Push Rod Assembly for Drum Brakes - Model 10 and 20 Actuators, part # DX66FR. This replaces the master cylinder and pushrod in the Titan Model 10 Actuator.

There is a few options to get the increased clearance you need to raise your trailer so you can stow away your jack when not in use.
I recommend replacing the coupler with a standard a-frame coupler you would still be able to get the coupler off the hitch without hitting the spare tire as it would be the same height. With an A-Frame coupler like the # DM14791-97 installed this would raise the trailer a few inches so you could keep using your jack, or it... view full answer...
The Bulldog coupler part # BD44150WH301 is a really great choice for your Featherlite trailer. It'll be very reliable and easy to use so you'll really like it. Then for an a-frame jack we have the zinc coated Bulldog A-Frame Round Jack # BD1700100301 which has a 5,000 lb capacity. Like I mentioned this has the zinc coating you are wanting which will fight corrosion and has more capacity than you'll need which means it will raise and lower easily. Trailer jacks are rated for their lifting... view full answer...
Yes, if you wanted to weld on the Demco coupler part # DM37ZR instead of bolting it on you certainly could. This is powdercoated though so you will need to remove the powdercoating first. For a similar coupler that was designed to be welded on and instead is just primed we have the part # DM14791-97 which has a 10k capacity, the same latch design, and fits a 2 inch hitch ball. view full answer...
Thanks for the photos, and based on them we do have what you need, which are over-the-hub disc brakes. The only thing you will need to verify is that you have a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern on your hub; it looks like you do but you'll want to be sure by measuring from the center of your hub's wheel stud hole to the farthest edge of the opposite stud.
If that measures 4-1/2 inches you have a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern. I have also added a link below to a printable bolt hole template. Assuming... view full answer...
Thanks for the photos, and I can confirm that you do have an A-frame style of coupler. We do not have a latch repair kit by that manufacturer for an A-frame coupler for a 2 inch hitch ball, so the best we can offer is a new A-frame coupler. There are both bolt-on and weld-on options available.

I have a complete replacement option for you, but unfortunately we do not have any confirmed replacement parts for the coupler of your Wells Cargo Trailer.
Instead I recommend going ahead and replacing the entire coupler with the Fulton 50-Degree A-Frame Coupler, 2-5/16" Ball, Low-Profile Latch, Primed Finish - 10,000 lbs # FE443050303 which has the same 10,000lb rating as your trailer.

For the Bulldog Collar-Lok Coupler w/ High-Profile Latch # BD028463 we have the Latch Repair Kit # BD024200 that is specific to the coupler. For a Jack there are several options based on how much weight you are needing to lift and also if you are wanting manual or electric.

The A-Frame Trailer Coupler # CA-5210-B will have the exact same yoke latch as your current Ram coupler, so it will not be adjustable, unfortunately. With that said, if you were over doing the weight capacity and can swing the Dutton Lainson A-Frame Trailer Coupler # DL14008 with 5,000 pounds of capacity, it will have the adjustability you are looking for.
If you do need more capacity than that though, your best option will be the Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler # DM14791-97. This is actually... view full answer...
It would appear that that your 1978 Airstream had the standard 50 degree a-frame style coupler. You can verify this to ensure that the etrailer A-Frame Trailer Coupler # CA-5280-RB will fit correctly on your Airstream.
I personally prefer the auto latching style couplers like the Demco 50-Degree A-Frame Trailer Coupler # 12660-97SP. This coupler for me is cleaner and works simpler with the latching system. The connection for the jack has nuts welded on to the bottom of the plate making... view full answer...

Most square frame tubing will actually have a swelling in the steel that causes the frame to not be an exact rectangle. This is why you will see a bit of an angle on the Bulldog Collar-Lok Coupler # BD028386.
I suggest using a large clamp to pull the steel as close together as possible. Be careful that the clap does not distort the inside wall of the steel tubing as this will weaken the steel and possibly cause the angle to increase. The heat from the welding process will help to pull... view full answer...
I do have some options for a Lock N Roll Articulating Coupler. The correct one will be based on frame type, part # 336TS504 for a-frame and part # 336TS528, part # 336TS506, or part # 336TS508 for straight tongue. These will all pair perfectly with any of the vehicle side Lock N Roll Articulating Trailer Hitchs like part # 336VS501. view full answer...
I spoke to Lock N Roll and they use 6mm x 1 low profile zerk fittings in their Articulating Coupler # 336TS504. The low profile ones can be a little difficult to locate, but they are out there.

I recommend replacing your Atwood coupler with a Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler # DM14791-97, as parts are virtually impossible to find for the older Atwood couplers. This will get you all new latch components that feature an EZ latch system.
The coupler comes primed to protect against rust until you are able to have it welded on in place of the old coupler. view full answer...
The Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler # DM14793-97 will require six 1/2" grade 5 bolts with correct washers and nuts to ensure a secure installation. The length of the bolt will be determined by the size of the frame rail that you are mounting to. I have included a video linked below for a similar coupler being installed that will help you through the installation process.
These bolts and the rest of the hardware needed can be purchased at a local hardware store. view full answer...
I have a solution for you. We do not carry hardware kits for the Demco Cast Head Coupler w/ Jack Hole - eZ-Latch - 2" Ball - A-Frame - Bolt-On - 10K # DM37ZR. However the instructions will give you the dimensions you will need and you can pick them up from any hardware store. view full answer...

The AT15775 part that you referenced was a replacement latch repair kit from Atwood for yoke style A-frame couplers. This kit is no longer available as Atwood was bought out and their parts were discontinued.

The etrailer A-Frame Trailer Coupler w/ Round Jack Hole # CA-5280-RB uses the standard a-frame angle of 50 degrees. The length from the rear of the coupler to where the coupler meets its narrowest point is approximately 9" long. I have include this information in the picture below. view full answer...
The latching mechanisms of couplers can pretty easily get corroded or dirty to the point they become difficult to operate. Best bet is to spray down the mechanism liberally with a spray lube like WD40 and see if that frees up the latch to allow it to install easier. A lot of couplers have adjustable latches as well. If you look under the coupler and see a nut maybe try loosening it a bit so that it could come down and latch onto the ball a bit easier.

Yeah we can get you a new coupler that will take a 2-5/16 ball.
Depending on the payload I suggest the Buyers Products A-Frame Trailer Coupler w Jack Hole - Auto Latch - 2-5/16" Ball - Weld On - 15K # 3370091595. It has a weight capacity of 15,000 pounds, is heavy duty steel with a black powder coat, weld on install and made in America.

The Lock N Roll Articulating Coupler # 336TS504 is listed as a weld-on application because it doesn't have bolt holes and was left unfinished to make the welding job easier. If you were willing to drill holes in the coupler you certainly could bolt it to your trailer. I'd recommend painting it to help fight corrosion.
I attached a page that has all of the ball mount solutions that go with this for you to check out. Main difference between them is the amount of drop they all have. view full answer...
You are correct. Other than how they are made, the Demco Cast Head Coupler w/ Jack Hole - eZ-Latch - 2" Ball - A-Frame - Bolt-On - 10K # DM37ZR and the # DM14793-81 have the same ratings and will work the same.
There is no pro or con to either, so I recommend going with the one that is the most cost effective at the time.
I included videos of the # DM14793-81 for you to take a look at. view full answer...
Atwood was bought out and their replacement parts are no longer available - including the repair kit you mentioned - so the best option is to replace that A-frame coupler with a new one that attaches to a 2 inch hitch ball.
There is a similar option with a yoke latch, the A-Frame Trailer Coupler # CA-5210-B, or another nice option with a low-profile latch is the Bulldog Collar-Lok Coupler with Low-Profile Latch # BD028287.
Those are both weld-on options, but there is a bolt-on option... view full answer...
In regards to the Bulldog Collar-Lok Coupler w/ High-Profile Latch part # BD028463, you will indeed need to be more centered over the hitch ball in order to couple in comparison to the Bulldog Heavy-Duty Cast Head Coupler w/ Wedge Latch part # BD44125W0317 which will more or less center itself with enough pressure. For that reason, I do prefer the trigger/wedge style. view full answer...
As long as the 5,000 lb capacity of the Bulldog Collar-Lok Coupler # BD028384 or the Bulldog Collar-Lok Coupler # BD028288 is adequate for the weight that your flat bed trailer will see then either will work well for you.
The difference between the two is in the latching mechanism. The # BD028288 has a low profile latching system that would work great if you needed additional clearance near the draw bar of your vehicle. If you did not have any clearances issues in that area you could... view full answer...
The lock I recommend for the Demco A-Frame EZ Latch Coupler # DM14793-81 is the etrailer Trailer Coupler Lock # e98887.

I reached out to Lets Go Aero for confirmation that you can even use the Demco 50-Degree A-Frame Coupler # DM15349-52 and they said that you will not have any structural issues with having the bolt holes drilled in the sides of your Frame as the Demco will require. Since the holes in the new coupler will not line up centered on your frame rails you will need to pad out the top of the frame 1/2" with some additional steel to center the bolt holes in the tube.

The etrailer brand # CA-5100-Z is manufactured in China. It's constructed of 1/8 inch thick stamped zinc plated steel, which works out to be 11 gauge.

You can absolutely use the Demco 50-Degree A-Frame Trailer Coupler with Jack Hole - eZ-Latch # DM13205-95 with a horse trailer. Couplers aren't specific to any kind of trailer, so as long as it has the specs you need, it will work for sure.
This coupler will fii A-frame trailers, couples to a 2-5/16" hitch ball and has a 21,000 lb capacity. It can also use a pin lock, the Master Lock Adjustable Trailer Coupler Lock # 2847DAT.

Depends on the weight of the trailer. If the trailer will never weigh more than 5,000 lbs then you wouldn't necessarily have to go with a 5k rated coupler like the Demco part # DM14793-52 that you referenced. 5,000 lb couplers are very popular, so if you were just wanting something priced a little better the part # CA-5100-Z would work great too. view full answer...
Basically you need to lock the outer sleeve of the Demco Hydraulic Brake Actuator # DM8609502 to the inner sleeve to prevent the two from moving. You could run a large bolt through all of the pieces to allow this to happen or some will weld the pieces together. view full answer...
I found a few pictures of the coupler on your 2019 Winnebago Minnie 170k Travel Trailer and you currently have an A-frame coupler.
The most likely replacement option is the Demco 50-Degree A-Frame Trailer Coupler w/ Jack Hole # DM13205-95 which is for trailer frames that have the standard 50 degree frame and requires a 2-5/16" hitch ball. The 50 degree A-Frame is the standard but it wouldn't hurt to confirm that the 50-Degree A-Frame is in fact what your trailer uses.

To install the Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler # DM16680-52 that you referenced, you will want to use 3/8 inch, grade 5 bolts , approximately 1-1/2 inches long (depending on how you are installing the coupler).
You will want to use 5 of these bolts per side for a total of 10 bolts. view full answer...
Yes the Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler # DM14793-97 could be welded instead of bolting it to the trailer. Instead though I would recommend the # DM14793-52 which isn't primed so would be a bit easier to weld. view full answer...
For the Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler w/ Jack Hole - eZ-Latch - Zinc - 2" Ball - Bolt On - 10K # DM14793-95 you were looking at I recommend the Electric Jack w/ Footplate - Drop Leg - A-Frame - 25-1/8" Lift - 3,500 lbs - White # EJ-3520-WBX as it will fit perfectly and has the drop leg you were looking for.
We do not currently offer a manual jack with a drop leg that will work with this coupler, but a standard manual A-frame jack like the Buyers Products A-Frame Jack w/ Support Foot... view full answer...
The inside dimension of the Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler w/ Jack Hole, part # DM14791-97 is 2-12 inches.

I went out to our warehouse to measure the Bulldog Heavy-Duty Cast Head Coupler # BD44150W0317 that you referenced and found a distance of right at 15-1/4 inches from the front of the coupler to the center of the jack mounting hole.
The other available couplers in the capacity range you are needing will have pretty similar measurements. If this is not enough length to give you the needed tailgate clearance then your best option is to go with a longer ball mount for your truck.

If you look at the diagram that I received from my contact at Demco, you can see several of the dimensions of the # DM14793-81 trailer coupler.

All of the A-frame couplers we carry are for the standard 50 degree A-frames. What you could do, since your A-frame is a lower angle, is have some steel spacers welded on to get to 50 degrees and then use a weld-on coupler. I have linked the weld-on options for you. view full answer...
A standard 50 degree coupler like # DM14793-81 will work on your custom 45 degree frame with a little modification. Without welding shims the coupler will not have the strength, so you will need to make some adjustments to your current tongue design. I've attached the dimensions for you to determine your fit requirements view full answer...
For a surge style set up, the Titan Disc Brake Actuator # T4750520 will definitely be a good actuator. This will also work in unison with the Titan Disc Brake Assembly # THRCM13378DACEK without issues. This does utilize an electric lockout making backing up a lot easier as well.
If you wanted to go with an electric over hydraulic set up, the HydraStar # HBA16 would be a great option. That being said, to activate an electric over hydraulic actuator, you will need a brake controller like... view full answer...
It sounds like you're looking for a replacement a-frame coupler like # CA-5280-RB but in a silver-painted or zinc-plated finish. Please click on the link provided to see all bolt-on standard a-frame couplers for 2-5/16-inch balls.
For the highest-rated designs Demco part # DM16680-52 is a 21K-rated bolt-on coupler with a silver powder-coat finish and part # DM13205-95 has a zinc finish. Both fit jacks with a 2-1/4-inch diameter outer tube and have a standard 3-1/4-inch mounting hole... view full answer...
The etrailer.com A-Frame Trailer Coupler # CA-5210-B referenced in your question features an 8,000 pound weight capacity, which refers to the overall weight of the trailer. Since you plan on loading the trailer up over 9,000 pounds, this will not be the best option. We do have higher rated couplers available that would not require you to change from a 2 inch hitch ball, such as the Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler # DM14793-81 that has a 10,000 pound capacity. I have also attached a link that... view full answer...
I do have options for you but trailer coupler repair kits are not exactly universal. If I knew the exact trailer coupler you have on your trailer then I could confirm 100% whether or not we have a trailer coupler repair kit for you. However, it looks like you have the Fulton A-Frame Coupler part # F44305R0317 which means the Repair Kit for Fulton A-Frame Coupler 2-5/16" Ball part # F640801 would be correct for you.
My advice would be to order both the coupler and coupler repair kit.... view full answer...
What you're looking for is the corrosion-proof composite latch handle that is part of some Demco eZ-Latch couplers like part # DM14793-52.
We don't sell the latch handle individually but we do carry a repair kit, part # DM6109, that has it included. view full answer...
The A-frame couplers we carry, like # 12660-97SP, are weld-on applications and cannot be bolted on to a trailer frame. Any welding should be done by a qualified welder in a shop that works on trailers. The coupler you have reference accepts a 2-5/16 inch diameter ball. I have included a link to all of the A-frame coupler options for you to view. view full answer...
There will be no trailer coupler latch repair kit for an Atwood Trailer Coupler 88555 which is discontinued. Unfortunately, the only option is a full replacement for which I recommend the Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler part # DM14793-81. This coupler can be bolted-on once you cut the old one off and it doesn't require the handle to be open while coupling. view full answer...
I may have a solution for you, but unfortunately in this case you can't find one because these low profile latches are not available as a replacement part according to my contact at Horizon Global (who own Bulldog). If your latch has broken or is no longer working then you would need to replace the coupler and the # BD028287 would be the recommended replacement as it would be a like for like swap. view full answer...
The Demco 50-Degree A-Frame Trailer Coupler # 12660-97SP can be used on your Jayco 23RB. This weld on coupler has the same 21,000lb rating, EZ Latch 2-5/16" coupler that fits a 50-Degree trailer A-frame that the Demco 50-Degree A-Frame Trailer Coupler # DM16680-52 you found. Since it needs to be welded on it is only primed in a red primer to prevent corrosion.
You will need a longer Coupler Lock like the Master Lock # 2847DAT since the Demco EZ Latch requires a minimum 3" coupler pin... view full answer...
In order to install the Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler # DM13205-95 you'll need to remove the current one on your Primetime Avenger.
This is a bolt-on coupler so the welding won't be necessary. view full answer...
I wish we could help but the coupler and it's repair kit that you need were both discontinued three years ago so we can't get either. Best option would be a new coupler like the Fulton part # FE443050303 which has the same trigger design, same 10k capacity, and also fits the 2-5/16 inch ball design as well. view full answer...
