A gooseneck tow hook on a trailer has the ability to pull wider and heavier loads versus a tagalong or bumper pull trailer. You may be wondering, how does a gooseneck hitch work? The long, arched shape of the hitch attachment is what gives it its name. First you will backup the truck towards the trailer, then grease the ball, lift the tailgate, connect the cable to the truck, attach the hitch and finally attach the breakaway cable.
What is a breakaway cable and how do I use it? The breakaway cable is a chord with a clip designed as a safety feature. Its main job is to tigger the breaks in the instance of the trailer becoming disconnected. Fortunately, the heavy duty Chevrolet Silverado trucks offer a high-tech driver info and alert system. The information system on the display screen allows you to check off and confirm each and every step so when you initially attach the trailer to the hitch, you can ensure it is connected properly. The built-in alert system will detect and notify you if there is anything concerning going on such as a trailer taillight going out or a malfunction with the connection.
It is easy to forget regular trailer maintenance like repacking and greasing wheel bearings. With the Chevy Silverado, all of the on the trailer mileage data is stored in your programmed trailer profile on your truck which is accessible in the MyChevy App. If you are looking to maintain your trailer or new Silverado as you prepare for farming season or a camping trip, schedule service with our experts at Uftring Chevrolet.
