Review: Worked great on Kendon Motorcycle trailer - I have a Kendon dual motorcycle trailer, and somehow the rubber latch got torn in half when I was riding down the road. I bought this to replace it, and it works perfectly. It was a 5 minute job, 1 minute to get 2 1/2 wrenches, 2 minutes to unbolt old one and bolt in new one, 1 minute to put wrenches back. I only needed just the rubber latch, but for some reason that was more expensive than buying the whole latch replacement kit, so I bought the kit. I did not use anything other than the rubber latch piece.
Review: Excellent Fit! - All Correct, received what I was intending to purchase
