Specs:
This coupler combines with a Lock 'N' Roll vehicle-end hitch (sold separately) to create a safe, secure, fully articulating connection that's great for towing whether you're on the road or off-road. It's more secure than a traditional ball coupler, and it's more comfortable and quieter than a pintle setup. The Lock 'N' Roll connects quickly and easily, and can adapt to any towing conditions.
When using a traditional ball coupler, it can be hard to tell if the coupler is fully latched around the ball. You can head out assuming the connection is secure, only to have the trailer pop off of the ball and disconnect while you're towing. With the Lock 'N' Roll, that won't happen.
This unique coupler is designed to interlock with a matching vehicle-side hitch to form a tight, secure connection. Unlike on a ball coupler, the latching components on the Lock 'N' Roll system are easy to see, so you can tell at a glance if the connection is secure.
Once secure, the Lock 'N' Roll setup offers a wide range of motion, which makes for a smooth ride. Because of the articulating action of the combined coupler and hitch, the Lock 'N' Roll connection can handle the harsh bumps and road shock that could otherwise stress and potentially damage a ball coupler.
The Lock 'N' Roll connection also makes your trailer less vulnerable to theft. Unlike a traditional ball coupler, which is compatible with any hitch ball of a matching size, the trailer-side Lock 'N' Roll coupler can only connect to a vehicle-side Lock 'N' Roll hitch. So your trailer cannot be towed away unless it's connected to a vehicle with a Lock 'N' Roll hitch installed.
With the Lock 'N' Roll, you can have peace of mind knowing your connection will not come apart or succumb to damage caused by road shock, nor will your trailer be vulnerable to theft.
The pintle hitch connection is the most common setup when towing off road because of the flexibility in the connection. But that flexible connection can also result in a lot of slop. This can cause uncomfortable jerking as well as rattle and noise. In addition, when using a pintle/lunette ring setup, it can be difficult to back up your vehicle and trailer without jackknifing. And it can be hard to disconnect at certain angles, which may be a necessity when overlanding.
The Lock 'N' Roll assembly, on the other hand, offers a close-fit, slop-free connection that's designed for off-roading. This close-fitting design provides a smoother ride than a pintle/lunette ring connection with less rattle. It also makes it easy to back your vehicle and trailer up without jackknifing.
With the trailer end and vehicle end combined, the Lock 'N' Roll setup also creates a fully articulating connection that's great for off-roading. The bearing that's built into the vehicle-end hitch allows for 360 degrees of rotation, which means that your trailer could actually roll all the way over and not take your vehicle with it. The connection also pivots side to side and up and down, making it easy to take rough trails without jarring your setup. This also allows for fast and easy disconnection, even at extreme angles.
Each Lock 'N' Roll setup requires 2 parts - a trailer end and a vehicle end. Together they create a strong, secure connection. To connect, just line up the trailer end and vehicle end together and place the outer metal tabs of the trailer-end coupler into the hooks on the vehicle-end hitch. Then fold the latching plates on the vehicle-end hitch down and secure them in place over the tabs using the pin and clip included with your vehicle-side hitch. With the latching plates secured, the Lock 'N' Roll assembly will stay firmly connected.
When the trailer-side coupler and vehicle-side hitch are secured together, they form an articulating assembly with 3 axes of directional motion. The uniquely designed bearing on the vehicle-side hitch allows the connection to rotate a full 360 degrees. The trailer-side coupler's hinge allows the connection to pivot to the left and to the right. And when the 2 sides are joined, the tabs will roll inside of the hooks so that the entire assembly can tilt up and down.
Towing with the Lock 'N' Roll is easy, and it gives you a connection that's both flexible and secure.

Works really well for pulling a trailer with your UTV or ATV.Now, I do have a vehicle side coupler here today, because I want to show you exactly how the two components couple together and work together. This is our vehicle side connection point. Our trailer side coupler has these tabs right here. They line up. They drop into place.
Super easy to do. Then you bring the latch plates over, and those go over those connection points, and then you secure it in place by taking a pin through the latch plates, out the other side, and you secure it by installing a clip.So, when coupling, the latch plates lock in place for a secure connection. The visible connection point completely eliminates any question as to whether the trailer is hitched correctly. Also, when coupled, you have 360 degree rotation, and three axis of movement at the connection point. Also, on the vehicle side, we have a pin right here that allows this whole collar portion to swivel as well.
This prevents twisting damage to the vehicle and trailer frames caused by sudden changes in vehicle-trailer orientation. Offers a wider range of motion, which really allows you to couple and uncouple the trailer with ease. This is also extremely helpful when backing a trailer around a corner and into a tight spot.It offers very tight . sorry, I'll try to move it here.

This is just what I needed. I think it will work fine. I have the longer 15" version of this but it turned out to be a little too long. This should be perfect.
made from thick material.
Went camping with my Jeep and it worked amazing. Great product!!!
Customer service was amazing. Odelia took the time to help me find the right product for my Jeep. She was very friendly and patient with me reviewing the different options! I will return just because of her customer service.
The product itself was as advertised and is well made and easy to install. It was exactly as Odelia indicated. The best part is I also received it a day early, which gave me the time I needed to get it out on even though it was simple. I will shop here again!!! Thank you Odelia and etrailer!
