Specs:
This hitch combines with a Lock 'N' Roll trailer-end coupler (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 hitch, 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 hitch is designed to interlock with a matching trailer-side coupler 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 hitch and coupler, 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.
When combined, the Lock 'N' Roll hitch and coupler also create 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 included pin and clip. 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 parts 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.

It has two length adjustments. Therefore my tailgate doesn't hit the hitch. Will give an update after I tow my overlanding camper. More to follow...
This is the best hitch! Super durable, easy to use and secure. Really well build solid. Is super heavy which shows the quality
Let me just tell you that I got rear ended while the hitch was on ….short story nothing happen to my car or the hitch, but the person that rear ended me, well that’s a different story
This hitch has made it possible for both our Subaru Outback and our truck to pull our small RV. It was a good price for an invaluable piece of equipment!
The Hitch as exactly what we needed as our new vehicle was a bit lower and we need to have the extra positions to get the correct height. The hitch has performed as expected...great product, we love the hitch.
Thank you this is perfect!
Great product worked very well
Awesome product
product was described well and came quickly, and was the right combo of two products I needed. However I thought it would come with a hitch pin, that might have been my error to think that though.
This adapter was just what I needed to hook up my 21" tongue height off road utility trailer to my Nissan Frontier.
Worked very well on our 3 week road trip and the etrailer staff was very helpful in assisting with the purchase.
Item works And performs as advertised! This works wonders on my lifted truck and is ideal hauling my Opus Camper! Thank you Etrailer
Works great. Used to tow overland trailer with a Honda Pilot Touring.
Product quality seems good, I was just not to impressed with the shipping because when it got to me the grease zerk was sheared off. That's the only reason I gave it a 4
So glad I found this product on etrailer site, it saved my bacon !
Order was promptly shipped and arrived damage free. Product works like a charm and appears to be well made.
Excellent customer service and very quick to get my product out the door and onto my tow vehicle!
The best.
Good quality. Tough. Well made. Nothing else to say.
