I chose this Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock because of its ease of use. The screw on/off function makes installation and removal easy. I also purchased a Trailer Coupler Lock from e-trailer and was able to have both locks keyed alike.



by:

This was the recommended receiver lock for a 2" hitch. It fit the hole of the hitch on the trailer but was to large for the etrailer tire mount hitch hole, even though this was their recommended part. Also these locks are a little "wonky". The key actually turns an internal screw that screws into the lock cap. Difficult to undo and relies on the key to tighten or loosen. Sooner or later the key is going to break or bend and get stuck. I wouldn't recommend these to anyone. There are better ones out there.



by:

Cool to follow up on your product. The multi-ball works as it should. I bought it since I didn't know if the trailer I would get would be 2" or 2 1/4. I tow a 4,000 # trailer/race car with it.

It's a heavy piece to carry around, but I feel that it will last a good many years. I did make a spacer to cram into the receiver, so the hitch doesn't rattle as much.
Otherwise it's great.

by:

Should work as advertised. However, this pin does interfere with the safety cable holes in the Roadmaster Spare Tire carrier with hitch receiver. I'm hoping the safety chains are long enough to reach the hitch mounts

Great idea! Never have to worry about my bike carrier disappearing!

Works GREAT! Not any problems with it and dont expect any! Thanks!



by:

The product looked to have the features that fit my criteria. Use and installation was simple,and the product video was very helpful and accurate.



by:

Yes the trailer, ball hitch and battery you installed worked great. It has served us well and you did a great job.



by:

Most will never believe this, but i ordered this locking pin to use in conjunction with the other pin that is the exact same as this one. Except the 1st pin has been installed and in service since late 2009. I used it to hold a hitch in the receiver tube of my motorhome that coupled our hauler trailer to the motorhome. I recently decided we would start flat towing a car, instead of the hauler trailer with the expedition on it.
so i needed one more locking hitch pin to use with the tow bar rise/drop receiver adapter. When i removed the first pin, i expected it to be rusty and not unlockable. SURPRISE, a little wd 40 in the key hole to aid in key insertion and BAM she unlocked and was clean as a whistle.
it was a no brainer to order an exact duplicate for use now.

still works perfect



by:

I have several of these locking pins that were all keyed alike. I lost one and the good folks at etrailer were able to send me a matching replacement. Now I don't have to distribute multiple keys to everyone. I've used a number of locking pins in the past and this is my favorite. No tiny flange that barely grips the pin that feels like you could pull it apart with your hands. You rotate the key several times and it screws the two parts together. A much better system



by:

It does not fit through the hole in the Kuat bike rack that I own.



by:

The item was not long enough to go through my 2019 Toyota tundra receiver hitch. I’m having to return it after calling and getting a real nice help from Trevor to get a longer one sent to me and return this one for Credit.



by:

Straight out of the box looks and feels great. Fits nice and snug inside the 2" Curt hitch receiver. Too early to comment on service life and durability under wet weather conditions but hope for good desired outcome.

No issues after a year of use and exposure to rain and frequent car wash treatments. Thanks for checking and you are welcome



by:

This was a recommendation as an added purchase by the company that did work. Better than others I’ve seen that lock with a barrel key (easy to break into), this one has an actual key.



by:

My second pair for a different hitch. No rattle and no issues for over 5000 miles. Love the option of keyed alike option for less keys. Highly recommend and excellent customer service and support!



by:

Strong nice to keep spare tire mount se cure



by:

Have bought a second pair due to the quality of it. Have used it to travel half the country without any issues. During my second pair for another hitch, I incurred an issue in getting the correct one but the customer service was there each time to resolve the problem and in a timely manner!



by:

Great service, good selection of parts.



by:

Too short to fit hitch even though website states it will fit 2 inch hitches.



by:

My husband is a proud Bluewater Vietnam Navy Veteran, celebrating his 50th year anniversary of coming home. My husband is retired & I decided to get a trailer hitchcover for his old truck, to compliment his combat veteran's license plate.
While searching for a unique, eye catching hitchcover, I came across etrailer.com. The cover I chose is eye catching, unique & a sturdy heavy plastic. It was easy to install & the lock, purchased with it, will keep it in place!
He loved the cover - and the price! PS: Still young at heart!



by:

Doesn't fit 2021 Tundra 2" receiver as it's too short and locking mechanism won't engage. However it does fit our 03 Tacoma so I'll keep it.

For the Toyota Tacoma with has a thicker 2 inch OEM receiver, I recommend part # e98881 which has a 3.62 inch span.



by:

Does what it says.



by:

I really like my trailer hitch lock. It is well made. It holds my Texas hitch cover in place. It fits perfectly.



by:

Everything worked out well. On time and fits perfect. Attach hitch setup and my new Ridgeline.
It comes with a 2" inch receiver and I have a full compliment of 1.25. stuff from my previous car. All from etrailer i must admit!
so I needed the 2-1.25 reducer, a good lock, and the 7-4 reducer for my goodies!
Thanks for the grest service

  • Is There A 12" Hitch Extension I Can Use While Flat Towing?
    I do have a potential solution for you, but I do not have an extender that will measure exactly 12". At least nothing that will be rated for use while flat towing. I do have a 14" hitch extender from Gen-Y part # GY89SR. This is rated for 10,000 lbs towing and 500 lbs tongue weight. It is recommended to use an anti rattle device like part # e99007 when using an extension. This will help to reduce any additional play at the hitch. You will also need a second hitch pin like the # e98880. Please...

  • Can Roadmaster Spare Carrier # RM-195125 Work on Winnebago Travato
    The Roadmaster Spare Tire Carrier # RM-195125 that you referenced does fit the hitch of your 2021 Ram Promaster Winnebago Travato. While we haven't had any customers come back with your specific RV we know your hitch is standard enough that this would work well. To lock the wheel to the Roadmaster Spare Carrier part # RM-195125 the part # e98892 would be a great option and then for a hitch lock the part # e98880 would work really well. The # e98892 installs by attaching to the bolts...

    I do have an option for you but I don't really know of a way to give you everything you want with the Blue Ox Hitch Extender for Tow Bars part # BX88265. If you use the hitch pin hole closest to the end of the shank you might be able to fit the Blue Ox Hitch Receiver Immobilizer II part # BX88224 and add the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 2" Hitches part # e98880 but that is all I have for you. Instead, a much better option would be the RockyMounts Hitch Extender LS part # RKY10011...

  • Will Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount with 2 Receiver Work with Cargo Carriers
    Yes, you could definitely use the Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount with 2" Receiver # D210 with a cargo carrier and your pop-up camper. So long as you know you have the turning clearance (which depends on the size of your cargo carrier) that is exactly what this product is designed for. The ball mount is 12-1/2" from hitch pin hole to hitch ball mount and 7-1/2" to the receiver pin.

  • Hitch Lock & Anti-Rattle For Roadmaster Dual Hitch Adapter RM-077-4
    There is a hitch lock as well as an anti-rattle device available for your Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter # RM-077-4 but because it has a solid shank, there isn't an anti-rattle hitch lock, as solid shanks prevent the use of an anti-rattle lock.

  • Locking Hitch Pin Recommendation for Class III 2 Inch Trailer Hitches
    I like our etrailer.com lock # e98880. This is the most popular hitch lock for 2 inch trailer hitches like # C13149. The flush design means that the ends are right up against the hitch pin hole on the receiver making it nearly impossible to get a tool in there to even try to cut the lock off. I have included a link to a video review of this lock for you along with a link to all the locking hitch pins we carry for 2 inch hitches.

    As long as your Honda Ridgeline has a 2" receiver opening trailer hitch you'll be able to easily install and use the Yakima LongArm Truck Bed Load Extender # Y01149. This extender simply slips into the receiver tube and and can be secured in place with a pin and clip, I recommend a locking one like # e98880. The model year of the Ridgeline is a not a determing factor in fitment.

It does have a Tongue Weight (TW) rating of 300 lbs but you will be limited by the maximum TW rating of your LeSabre.

That means could use the Class II Reese cargo carrier you mentioned, but it wasn't designed for it. There is a very similar carrier which will work.

I went ahead and attached a diagram that shows the dimensions of the trimming you need to do (the shaded areas). The great thing about the Curt hitch is that it installs close to the rear bumper.

  • Ball Mount Platform Thickness of Gen-Y Glyder Shock Absorbing Ball Mount
    I reached out to Gen-Y, who told me the thickness is approximately 1/2" for the Gen-Y Glyder Shock Absorbing Ball Mount for 2" Hitches - 2" Drop - 7K # 325-GH-12001 and the 6" Drop # 325-GH-12005. Along with that, the platform has a 1 inch diameter hole, so for a hitch ball you will need 2-5/16" Hitch Ball # 63847 or 2" Hitch Ball # 40038. It does not come with a hitch pin or lock, so I highly recommend adding a lock, the Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 2" Hitches # e98880.

    Trailer Hitch Pins like the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 2" Hitches - Flush - 2-5/8" Span - Chrome # e98880 and # e98881 do not have a specific weight rating due to the fact that they are so much stronger than the rest of the components used for towing. A hitch pin like the # e98880 and # e98881 will still be holding long after the tow bar, ball mount, or trailer hitch receiver has failed.

There are a lot of factors that affect the height of the hitch on your vehicle in relation to the ground but typically we've found that when the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 76227 sits 15-16" from the top of the receiver to the ground.
