Safety Chain Hook Recommendation for a Hitch with Large Safety Chain Hoops
Question:
I need 2 quick links that have at least a 1/2 inch opening and an inside diameter of 1 inch to hook my safety chain snap hooks into because the snap hooks are too small to connect to the hitch see photos. Are these links big enough?

Due to the thickness of the safety chain loops on your hitch your best option would be to go with a hook and keeper setup like the part # 1483-535-04. I attached a picture that shows the size of the opening on the hook.
For just the hook you would want the part # 6495-401-04.
