When you want to lock back on to the coupler, you push it back as far as you can and turn the key and it will not go anywhere. We will show you how it works with a few different couplers. You unlock it like that, if you can latch the coupler and slide it together at the same time. That way it is locked here and it cannot go anywhere. The pin is already in, so take the key out and that is not going anywhere. Now we will show you how it works on an A frame coupler. It is pretty much the same thing; slide it on, latch it down, run it as close as possible like so and there you have it. No one can get a ball in there and take off with your trailer.

Well show you the operation of the lock, its pretty easy. The key goes in and it works like a screwdriver. It just unscrews like so, then we can put it on our coupler. You put this through the lock hole on the coupler, which is typical of these latch style couplers. It just goes through then screw it together with the key, back it off a little bit with a turn. There you have it, locked into place and on the ball. Thats part # 63225 or #3008, the Tow Ready coupler lock. more

This is a trailer lock that fits common 1-7/8 couplers. Well show you the operation of this lock, its pretty simple. It comes with a standard key, which of course goes in the lock, what this does is instead of being a push button this one actually threads in. It bottoms out at about that far. That way when you put it back in your coupler and try to pull it out, it binds against that and cant be pulled off the coupler. To loosen it, you obviously reverse the procedure. Thats all there is to it. Well demonstrate the operation of this on a common variety 1-7/8 coupler. It simply slides over this edge here, use the key as a screwdriver, and run it in as far as you can. When it bottoms out back out the key by a quarter turn, the key comes out, and the lock cant come off. There you have it for part # 63229 trailer lock from Tow Ready. more

Well start off with Part # V75692, it simply takes a twist of the key and the top part comes out. Then this gets set around the coupler and slides down as far as you can put it on the coupler. You take the key out and it cant come apart and you cant pull this out of a coupler. Well try it on a coupler next to show you how it works. The same steps as before, take you key and take off the top bar. Take the key out, open the coupler and place the ball inside, so it cant go anywhere, take your top bar and push it on as far as it can go. Give it a good tug so it locks into place and there you have it. To take it apart you put it back in give it a twist and pull your bar out. Then you unlatch your coupler and its ready to hook up to your tow vehicle. Now well show you how this works with a popular trigger style coupler. more

We have here a 7/8 inch wide trailer coupler latch lock. This is a lock for the latch of your coupler and we are going to show you how it works, it is a pretty simple device. Basically you have the key to unlock it and then we will show you how to install it. It has a nice weather tight cover, you turn the key about 180 degrees and the pin comes apart and it is ready to install on your coupler. We have your regular variety latch style coupler here and we will show you how it works. The lock wraps around, you put the pin in and turn the key, put the cover back on and your trailer is secure. A few finer points about this lock is that the body itself has a nice rubber grip surrounding it which makes it easier to use and grab. You have armor on the outside which is covered in plastic so it will not scratch up your new trailer. It could be important on galvanized trailers because you do not want to beat it up and start rusting and cracking. What is also nice is the key itself. It is not a special key, if you take it to the locksmith you can get a copy made. There you have it for part # 2878DAT, from MasterLock, the 7/8 inch wide coupler latch lock. more

That is all there is to it. Now we will go ahead and show you how it gets installed on to a 1 1/4 inch receiver hitch. Now that we have our hitch here, it is a matter of reversing the procedure.

This J-Pin assembly is basically an anti-sway device and also a device to lock down your ball mount for security purposes. Well take it apart and show you how it works. You put the key on there and give it a turn and it pops out and comes apart like so. Then you take this nut which comes off also, and this gets installed. As you can see, it goes through the hitch pin hole and then this has to go into a hole thats been punched into the receiver hitch itself. This hole combination is really specific to Draw-Tite hitches only, so this would really only work on Draw-Tite hitches of recent manufacture in the last couple years. Once you have your pin installed, put the nut back on and the kit does provide a wrench for it so we can give it a good snug. What happens is it keeps it from rattling around anymore. Pop the lock into place, push the button and youre good to go. There you have it, thats for part # 63201, the J-Pin Stabilizing Lock from Tow Ready. more

What this provides is a last bit of security you can add to your truck and trailer. We will install one on a ball mount and show you how it works. A good trick is to keep your lock washer in this little groove right here, it goes around your ball mount, your ball goes through the assembly, and then the trick is to thread the ball into the nut. When you do that, it brings the nut inside the guard here. It provides the ability for one to hold the nut while you tighten it down, and you cannot take the nut back off when it is on. Also what is nice about this is that on top you can see there is a nut built into the top of the ball. It uses a three quarter inch wrench so you can use that to tighten this ball down to your ball mount and you are set to go. You may ask, can someone just unscrew the top to steal the trailer? but you forget you will have a coupler on top of it with a lock so it does provide extra security. This is also available in part # 2820DAT for 2-5/16 inch couplers. There you have it for part # 2816DAT from MasterLock, the easy mount 2x1 inch hitch ball with lock. more
