Weight Distribution Setup - What is this called?

[maxpower]

New to me trailer I'm trying to hookup weight distribution (Curt system) and the frame brackets won't fit onto the frame at the right position but it looks like these can be utilized. It's not the typical one to me at least.
I've googled but I'm not sure what this is called and if I need an insert for it.

I have them on my trailer there is no insert for it you jack up the load lever arms a bit above and hook the chains into the slots

You can remodel the frame brackets you have to weld them to your frame as an option. They just wont me removable if you want to keep the system if you sell the trailer. But they do sell the frame brackets separately. As for the second picture you have posted, I have not seen those available for purchase. You can probably get someone to make them for you. Piece of channel or rec tubing. Drill two holes and cut the groove out. If you have to tools to do so.

Thanks. Might just cut them off and have a set of chain hangers put on.

You hook up truck, then jack up trailer just pass level, put rod level rods on hitch and put chain in slot so leveller is tight. lower jack and trailer should be level.
