Magnet will not work as its made of brass, or something like that,,,,non magnetic. Unless your hualing HUGE loads its not really needed. After all a 14 bolt that everyone thinks is so strong is just a redesign of the eaton without the load bolt. The 14 bolt was only used up to one tons. The eaton was used up to three tons, possibly five tons. One of the third members I picked up came from a wrecked truck that had 19.5 duallys. There was no cab, it was just the frame, so I didn't get to check what it was for sure.
