Everything was shipped the day I ordered it. Filters fit like they should. The BW hitch fits great, is heavy duty and will probably be the last one I buy. Great job!

Hey Charles! I can help get a return started for you. Do you know how much length you'd need for a pin to fit? I do have part # F57CR that is a little longer. It has a 7/8ths span instead of the 5/8ths. Let me know!



by:

By purchasing a new tailgate cover I wanted to make sure this new one wouldn’t be stolen.



by:

From Order to Delivery each step was Documented as to Who took the Order, Who picked it, who packaged it, and the Tracking was spot on.

The Box arrived with some torn edges and holes in it, I would assume made by the Shipper, but all the order was securely taped inside and everything was there.



by:

Excellent service, fast shipping and detailed tracking lets you know from order to delivery. E trailer makes it easy.



by:

The items that I ordered from etrailer arrive very quickly and were exactly what I needed. Customer service gets an AAA rating. Items are of good quality and look great on my new 2022 Ford Explorer ST!



by:

Works great. My hitch hasn’t fallen off yet!



by:

Arrived very quickly. Perfect fit, easy to use for the raised receiver adapter. Rubber cover keeps the keyhole protected from dirt, sand and water.



by:

I have been successfully using this hitch receiver lock for the past year. I has worked quite well and is easy to use. I added a large flat washer between the locking mechanism and the main hitch pin end to remove the small bit of side to side movement and rattle of the hitch pin.



by:

Hello, I was installing this lock to lock my also ordered Steelers hitch but it seems to be just short to lock securely. I’ve attached a picture of my hitch. Pls advise



by:

Great Product, now I can take my Bicycles and Boat, Hitch works Great.
Thank You etrailer.



by:

Impressive locking bolt! This item meets and exceeds my initial impressions and security requirements for a sound and secure locking pin. Let’s get it on the road and see how she runs! Kudos to Jessie at etrailer customer service for making this purchase recommendation- what a breeze!



by:

The lock looked exactly as described and was super easy to install to my hitch. I would highly recommend it. The customer service that I received from Etrailer was exceptional.



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

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

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:

Exactly as expected. I like the fact that I could have all keyed alike, just one less hassle trying to find the correct key in the future.



by:

I purchased this suggested Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for my Cargo Carrier, and it did not fit. After speaking with a representative attempting to find a lock that would fit, etrailer did not make one that would fit my Cargo Carrier I purchased through them. They did end up refunding my money back, but I would still like to find a lock for my carrier.

Hey, Steven! Maybe I can help you track down a lock. How was the lock ill-fitting? I don't see any dimensions of the original pin listed on the cargo carrier page to go off of. Do you need something longer? Skinnier?



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:

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.

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2026 Toyota Corolla Cross and How to Install It
    Hey Michael, congrats on the new SUV. The EcoHitch item # EH87CR does not require you to remove the rear bumper assembly when installing. It does require some slight fascia trimming though. You'll have to remove a 2-3/4” deep and 4-1/2” wide section that sits below your Cross. This allows the 2" receiver to extend below your bumper. Please note that the EcoHitch item # EH87CR only fits the hybrid models of the 2026 Toyota Corolla Cross. If yours is not a hybrid, you'll need the Curt item...

  • How to Get Multiple Keyed Alike Trailer Hitch And Coupler Locks
    We have an option for you, though there isn't a way to get matching keys for a Master Lock # 2848DAT trailer hitch and coupler lock set as they don't have a Keyed Alike option for a second set. What you can do in order to use the same key for multiple trailer hitch locks and coupler locks is use the etrailer locks, and select the "Keyed Alike" option from the drop-down on their product pages. This will get you all the locks keyed the same so you only have to keep track of a single key....

  • Recommended Hitch and Trailer Wiring for a 2026 Mazda CX-90 Plug-In Hybrid
    It sure does Steve, and congrats on your new SUV. The Curt Hitch item # C74MJ does indeed fit the Plug-In Hybrid model of the 2026 Mazda CX-90. The Curt item # C74MJ is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver that comes with all necessary installation hardware. It has a 5,000 lbs towing capacity and a 500 lbs maximum tongue weight. I really like the Curt Hitch item # C74MJ because of how it installs. The entire crosstube is hidden behind your rear bumper leaving only the 2" receiver visible....

  • Availability of Coupler Lock With a 5/16 inch Pin Diameter
    A pin with a 1/4 inch diameter, like part # e98886, is standard for coupler locks. Unfortunately there are none that are 1/16 of an inch larger in diameter. If instead you meant that you needed one with a span of 5/8 of an inch then you will want to go with the Master Lock Adjustable Trailer Coupler Lock # 2847DAT which has a 5/8 inch adjustment setting. If you meant that the pin diameter needed to be 5/8 inches then you are looking for part # e98880.

  • Recommended Ball Mount for 2 Inch Ball with No Rise and No Drop
    For a 2 inch hitch ball that has no rise and no drop, I recommend the Curt Solid 2-Ball Mount for 2" Hitches - 2" and 2-5/16" Balls - 10K - Black # C45660. For your anti-rattle, I recommend the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 2" Trailer Hitches # RM-061 which will give you the anti-rattle and then # e98880 for a locking hitch pin. If you want a 3 ball option I recommend # C62KR.

    The vehicle side of the Lock N Roll Articulating Trailer Hitch # 336VS501 can be locked to the vehicle's 2-inch receiver hitch using any standard pin lock such as # e98880. The mating part that bolts or welds on to the trailer # 336TS508 will only couple to the Lock N Roll system. 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.

  • Can a 1-1/4 - 2 Adapter be Used to Safely Haul a Cargo Carrier with a 2015 Toyota Corolla
    The concept of a hitch adapter like the Brophy # HTAD is a good idea in theory but the problem with using one of those with a 1-1/4" hitch, like part # C11265 or # 24913 for your 2015 Toyota Corolla, is that it will reduce the weight capacity of your trailer hitch by 50%. Since those trailer hitches have a tongue weight rating of 200 lbs this means that the tongue weight will be reduced to 100 lbs. If you were to use all of this for the 24x59 Curt Cargo Carrier # C18151 you would only...

  • Can Curt Pintle Hook Mounting Plate Only be Used in Drop Position
    Hello Jose, It is indeed true that the Curt Pintle Hook Mounting Plate # C48343 can only be used in the drop position; it cannot be used in the rise position. There is a similar, 8-hole pintle hook mounting plate which CAN be used in the rise position if you like, the B&W Pintle Hook Mounting Plate # BWPMHD14002. You can secure this to your hitch using lock # e98880.

  • Determining Correct Ball Mount or Draw Bar for your Vehicle and Trailer Combination for Level Towing
    To find the correct ball mount you want to measure from the inside top opening of the receiver on your truck to the ground. Then you want to measure the trailer from the bottom of the coupler to the ground when the trailer is level. The difference between those two measurements will give you the proper rise or drop for your application. I've attached an article to assist. If you don't want to use a fixed mount, or if you pull different trailers, you may want to consider an adjustable...

  • Pin and Clip Recommendation for a Curt Cargo Carrier part # C18153
    As long as you have a 2 inch hitch installed on your 2013 Toyota Sienna the Curt Cargo Carrier part # C18153 would fit and work well for you. It does not come with a pin and clip but you have a couple options. For a standard pin and clip you would want part # PC3, for a locking one part # e98880, and finally for a locking anti-rattle one you would want the part # 63232.

  • Hitch Pin Weight Capacity and Sheer Strength
    We aren't manufacturers of those parts, and we don't have the testing ability in house, so I reached out to a couple of our manufacturers to see what information they could provide to try and help. I reached out to my contact at Curt regarding the pin and clip # C21500 and he said they haven't ever needed to test the sheer strength of a pin because the hitches and ball mounts will fail before the pin does every single time. They are rated for 6 figures easily. He gave an example of a...

  • How To Measure For Hitch Receiver Lock Pin Span
    The span you refer to on the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 2" Hitches # e98880 is the usable length of the pin. To properly measure for this, you can measure the outside walls of your hitch at the pin hole. If you measured, and got 2-5/8", you'd need a hitch pin with at least a span of 2-5/8" like # e98880,. Additionally, you'd need to measure the diameter of the pin hole, so you can choose the correct diameter pin as well. Usually class I and II hitches have a 1/2" diameter...

    There is a way for you to tow your small trailer AND use the Thule T2 Pro XTR 2 Bike Rack # TH83JV, although you would not be able to do so by replacing the lower tube on the rack. Instead, what you can do is use the Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount with 2" Receiver # D210. This has a ball mount that fits 2" hitches and has a receiver above it; the receiver is also 2" so it will work with the T2 Pro XTR.

    A trailer hitch cover like the Rubber Hitch Cover # 22281 is not one that can be locked, but since it is a common piece it really isn't in too much danger of being stolen. However, if you you are looking at a hitch cover that is a little more unique, like the part # HTCC11805, then I do recommend going with a locking hitch pin like part # e98880 as opposed to a typical pin and clip like part # PC3. This will help to deter theft of your cover. Please note that the lock and clip/pin numbers...

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2017 Subaru Outback Wagon
    For your 2017 Subaru Outback Wagon the Draw Tite hitch part # 75673 is a confirmed fit and would be a great choice. This is a 2-inch hitch which is the most popular hitch size for accessories and has the best capacities. For trailer wiring the part # 118467 would also be the correct kit to get. The Convert-A-Ball ball mount # AMSC2 would work too if you needed a 2-inch drop. You will also need a product like part # PC3, part # e98880, or part # 63232 to secure the accessory in your 2"...

What you would need to do is simply use an adapter, the Hitch Reducer 2" to 1-1/4" # HT02. This will go in the 2" receiver and essentially turn it into a 1-1/4" receiver. It comes with a 1-1/4" pin and clip, though you won't be using that for your Sherpa so you can disregard it. The only thing you would need is something to secure...

  • Locking Trailer Hitch Pin for Bike Rack on 2 Inch Trailer Hitch Receiver
    The Curt hitch you purchased is part # C13272 which is a 2 inch receiver so the pin hole is 5/8 inches. A good standard lock to fit is part # e98880. With that being said, a lot of bike racks have threaded hitch pins so you can't use just a standard locking pin. Their threads are usually specific to their own locks so you might need to purchase a specific lock for your specific bike rack. If you let me know which bike rack you have I can help you with a specific locking pin.
