Our 2619 came with sprial safety cables instead of chains. When we picked up the TM from the dealer his mechanic said that the sprial cables do not have to be crossed (which is pretty much contrary to the common practice of crossing safety chains under the tongue when towing). Is there a reason why these sprial cables shouldn't be crossed? Is it safe to just connect them straight?
BTW on another subject... is it ok to hook the emergency brake switch break away cable to the same connection the sprial cables are hooked on at the receiver?

Just for future reference, only take about 1/2 of what David tells you as fact..the rest is his own interpretation of reality....if you ask him about the cables, he will only have seen one other TM with the cables crossed.

As for mine I don't cross them, but it is personal preference even though it is recommended that you do so that way if the hitch should come off the ball, it won't hit the ground and flip the trailer.


So, how do you like your TM so far??
