Video of Tow Ready J-Pin Stabilization Pin and Barrel Lockset for 2" Trailer Hitches
Videos are provided as a guide only. Refer to manufacturer installation instructions and specs for complete information.
Today were going to review part number 63201 from Tow Ready. This is our J-pin stabilizing pin with lock. Well go ahead and start off by installing a ball mount into our hitch and well go ahead and use a regular pin and clip. Now you can see with the pin installed we can move the ball mount around and this one creates noise and a thunking sound. Then well go ahead and show you how the J-pin works. First well go ahead and show it going through the ball mount.
You can see how the J-hook goes through where the hitch pin went and then the J part goes around to the side and pushes on the side of the ball mount. When you tighten down the J-pin it pulls the ball mount to the side to help eliminate the noise. Now well go ahead and install the J-pin into the hitch. When we install it in the hitch you can see theres a second hole in the hitch. This J-pin is designed to work with hitches with a second hole.
This will work with Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, and Reese Hitches. Well go ahead and install it and you can see how the J-pin will go through the smaller hole and how it will push against the ball mount. To put it all together well put the ball mount in and then lets go ahead and put the J-pin in. Now well go ahead and install the flange nut. Well run it down finger tight and then use the provided tool that comes with the kit and tighten it up.
About two quarter turns and the ball mount has moved to one side and not able to move. Now well go ahead and install the lock. Well go ahead and take the lock well push it as far as we can go and then push on the lock core and that locks it in place. Then we can go ahead and install the rubber cap. Now we use this on a ball mount to secure it.
However this can be used on a cargo carrier or a bicycle rack that uses a pin and clip to hold it in place. This is designed for us with 2 inch receivers only. Thatll finish for review of part number 63201 from Tow Ready.

Tow Ready J-Pin locking anti-rattle device for 2" trailer hitch receivers.by: Cory L.03/14/2018
This hitch was installed on my 2015 Subaru Forester 2.5i Limited. The website is fantastic and makes finding the correct products for your vehicle very easy. The hitch arrived in only a few days and came complete with all the necessary installation accessories. The hitch comes with fish wire for the frame bolts so you don't need to fuss with buying fish wire. Some reviews stated that you can go in from the inside of the vehicle but this is totally unnecessary and more work. Just follow the instructions, with exception of the muffler heat shield. You can drill 1/2" holes through the heat shield in the dimpled areas corresponding to where the instructions tell you to cut out the heat shield (see some of the other reviews for more detail on this). These holes allow you to securely fasten the heat shield over the hitch using the hitch bolts. Make sure you have a torque wrench and an 11/16" deep socket to tighten the frame bolts. I would also recommend removing the muffler which is very simple. Lube the muffler mounts with WD-40 to facilitate the removal of the muffler. You will save at least $300 installing this yourself. 485071

I would like to tell you about my experience with etrailer.com. I am a return customer because I always find what I need at reasonable prices, quick and inexpensive shipping charges. I ordered this lock for a 1999 GMC Safari to fit my Draw Tite hitch. It is very well made. Fits perfectly and no wobble at all. I highly recommend etrailer.com. I feel they are a very good company to deal with because I get personal service which is uncommon these days. 399525

I purchased the Draw-Tite hidden trailer hitch, Airlift 1000 air springs and tail light wiring kit for my 2017 AWD Sienna. Reviews were correct, the hitch looks great and you should bend the tabs during installation to get it in. I also purchased the wiring kit for trailer lights (pain to install but worth it) and the Airlift 1000 additional load supports that should help with a full load. The air springs were surprisingly easy to install especially when you are already installing the hitch and wiring kit. Recommend doing it all at once (wiring kit first, then hitch, then air lift springs). etrailer has been over the top on customer service. Shipped quick, checked after it arrived and love the website! Already placed another order for more accessories! (get the cargo bag ahead of time with free shipping if you are going to use a cargo hitch) 360094

Summary: The J-Pin is the best invention since sliced bread! If etrailer were more efficient it would be illegal. 153704
Parked in many motel parking lots with high value electric scooters attached - nothing stolen! The proof is in the pudding.

Innovative product. Works well with bike rack which previously rattled and bounced excessively. This appears to tighten everything well. 59536
Works well every time I use it. Very pleased.
Joe T - 05/17/2014by: Keith04/06/2018
Good solid product. Nice cap over the key slot and O-ring to keep dirt out of the mechanism. One manufacturer issue. This Draw•Tite® J-Pin® Anti-Rattle Pin could not be used on a Draw Tie hitch which was pre-drilled for a J-Pin. The mounting bracket which was part of the hitch got in the way of installing the pin from one direction and from installing the lock from the other direction. 493294

I'm really excited about my stabilization pin. We'll be using it for our Reese Explore ProSeries 63153 Rambler cargo basket. I took it out and tested it today after it arrived. There was a fair amount of play between the cargo carrier shank and the receiver when I tugged on it, and the stabilization pin cut that down to pretty much nil. It was easy to install, and I'm excited about the locking feature. Last time we took the carrier on a road trip, I removed it and put it inside our van each night - not wanting it to be stolen. It'll be nice not having that hassle anymore. 487947

I guess I didn't know if the hitch has two holes is enough reason to buy this product. I liked the quality of it but it just doesn't work for me, at least for now. I needed to secure my Thule Vertex 4 Bike Rack - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting Item # TH9029XT, but now I have to find pay for Thule Snug Tite Hitch Lock and Anti-Rattle Device - THSTL2. The problem is my Bike Rack has already one of the locking mechanism, and I just need the second lock to the hitch, but can't find it here :(. I wish this point was brought up in the video so I knew what I was about to buy. 373677

The Tow Ready J-Pin Stabilization Pin seems to work really well on a DrawTite trailer hitch (also purchased from etrailer) equipped 2015 Subaru Forester using a standard tongue. No tongue rattling when pulling a loaded 4 x 6 foot utility trailer. The barrel lock on the first pin that I received was either jammed in the lock position, or was supplied with the wrong keys. In any case, no problem exchanging after a quick telephone call to etrailer. I received the replacement in a couple of days. No return of the defective pin necessary. As usual, excellent service. 511472
by: James12/27/2017
This is an easy to use lock that I thought about returning because I thought it was too much for my needs and I could get by with a cheaper product. I'm glad I didn't do that even though etrailer had processed an RMA for me with no hassles. I've had this for a year and it's stood the test of time and use. I can get it fitted in literally just a few minutes. I've attached the key as well as the keys to my trailer to the included tool which makes my process easier and finding the tool and keys in my trailer bag one simple task. 463100
by: Paul H06/30/2017
Simple to install, everything needed is included. And now my trailer ball and bar has ZERO slack...it feels like it is welded straight into my frame. Those rattles and unexpected clunks going down the road are a thing of the past! Shown being used on a 2017 Subaru Outback (that also has a hitch from etrailer.) 400630
by: Rick k05/05/2014
J-pin works great ! No more rattle pulling my trailer it tightens the receiver good . Lock is nice also, we'll made! 128876
by: BOB12/03/2016
I RECEIVED THE PRODUCTS SEVERAL DAYS EARLIER THAN PROMISED. INSTALLED IT EASILY THE SAME DAY RECEIVED EVEN THOUGH I AM 74 YEARS YOUNG - I LIKE THE PROVISION FOR UTILIZING THE J-Pin Stabilization Pin and Barrel Lockset for 2" Trailer Hitches - Part #63201 and the welded on tab for utilizing the Pollak 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket w/ Mounting Bracket - Vehicle End - HM40975 - A better setup for the 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee than the factory tow package and much less expensive as well. 322774
by: Jim E.05/10/2011
This product is great. It completely eliminated the loose hitch problem that caused my bicycles to sway back and forth on their hitch mounted bike rack. What was even better was the help I got from eTrailer.com in showing me what was needed and shipping it quickly. I would never have found this product without your help. Since you had already helped me with my trailer hitch, this time I knew to ask you first. Keep up the good work...I'll be back. 13279
by: Jerry H09/14/2018
As promised this product eliminates the rattle in the 2 inch to 1 1/4 inch adapter I installed for my 1 1/4 inch bike rack. However, there is still a pretty noticeable wobble in the bike rack. The bike rack is bolted into the adapter, so the wobble is at the hitch and the adaptor. I plan to try putting some sort of shim between the 2 inch hitch and the 1 1/4 inch adapter. Hopefully, this will eliminate the wobble, which I consider unacceptable. 565200
by: RYANPB02/15/2013
Great Product. Came up a little short but added two washers from the hardware store and everything snugged up real tight. No more wobble on my rear step to get into my sprinter van, and it is locked on. Also the wrench was useless in my case, no access at all. I would recommend this product to anybody with a newer hitch (it requires an extra hole) to lock on a step or bike rack, something you aren't going to take off every day. 66412
by: Jeffrey01/03/2018
Class 3 receiver hitch works great on our 2017 Subaru Outback. Perfect fit and the light kit is custom to the vehicle. The install process was easy and the how to video"s at etrailer took all the uncertainty out of the job. Went on just as advertised and I was ready to roll. The hitch blends in with the rear of the Outback and is functional and good looking. Thanks for all the good work making the ordering and installing so easy. 464660
by: Steve08/05/2016
Have only opened the box and not yet had the occasion to use the new trailer J-pin. It appears to be well made and of high quality. Of particular note, it was a pleasure actually opening the package. I had no need to get out the tin-snips or a hand saw or a hunting knife. The package stayed closed until I needed it to open and then popped apart as if it was just waiting for my request. Thank you eTrailer! 280162
Product behaves as promised. Hitch now much quieter.
Steve - 08/17/2017by: Millissa06/20/2017
Really liked the product, but not able to use it because we have a nut welded in our hitch. We did not know that when we purchased this item. The tow hatch is great. Very easy to install, took about 45 mins- 1hr. Would like to see e trailers use foam packing around the hatch ends so they don't go through the box during shipping. Thankfully they taped all the items to the hatch so everything was there. 396763
by: Ron W.10/08/2012
This stabilizer pin does just what it aims to do for my Draw-Tite hitch (not sure it fits other brands). It made my loosey-goosey bike rack rock-solid tight! It's easy to use, as long as I don't lose the two keys supplied, which I thought was too few (a similar product I recently bought provided 6!). I plan to have some more made, otherwise I would have given it the highest score. 56682
by: Colin04/11/2013
Etrailer is a quality retailer. Every experience has been uneventful, no screw ups, great service and products that meet my picky standards. The J -Pin's design is simple and functional. Got it for my wife's bike rack because it fit sloppy. No plastic, metal on metal. It tightens down the receiver and rack so there's zero play between the two. Thanks again, Colin 75438
by: Mark07/06/2018
This is a great, secure locking pin. Holds tight. Easy to use. I hope replacement rubber caps are available. I'll use it for my hitch ball as well as the step unit. 538487
by: MARINE77709/18/2014
These are EXCELLENT- the BEST on the Market and I do HOPE the Manufacture never decides to DROP THEM! IF you pull ANYTHING- this -if put on CORRECTLY will NOT BANG on taking off or Stopping while pulling a Boat or whatever- I think THIS was a GREAT Inovation- without this on my Hummer or SUV you HEAR the Bang Bamg as you take off and Go- they are the BEST!!! 151999
by: John06/13/2013
Seems like a solid product, but be careful which hitch and bike rack combination you're using it with. For example, I have a hitch that it works with (Hidden Hitch) but it does not work with the bike rack that I use with that hitch (Thule)....so I had to send this pin back. Call eTrailer to check on your specific hitch/rack combination before ordering this. 84426
by: Jordan C.12/19/2011
I know nothing about hitches and the like. eTrailer tossed this item in for free for me on my order. After installing my cargo carrier I was really worried that it moved around too much. Turns out that this J-pin Stabilization Pin was exactly what the doctor ordered. If you get a cargo carrier, get this pin. You will not be disappointed. 28273
by: Ron D.12/22/2016
Best of everything, Price, Selection, Availability, Shipping, Information and additional accessories. Ordered hitch and accessories 5 days before xmas with no intention of receiving before Jan 1st. WRONG, had everything on my porch in 3 days, merry xmas to me. Cant say enough about etrailer.com, Don't buy anywhere else. Thank You 328215
by: Mark03/20/2018
Cargo carrier secured! There was considerable "play" with my cargo carrier previously, which led me to searching for a true / non-hack fix. The J pin was the answer. I can't shake the carrier now without shaking my vehicle. They are tight together, as well as secured. Great concept, great product. 487220
by: Bryan01/10/2012
This product is simple, easy to use, and does the job as advertised. I use this product in conjunction with a cargo platform and it eliminates most of the flex/bounce you would have with a standard hitch pin. The lockset is also a nice feature and both the pin and lockset seem to be plenty durable. 29414
by: Steve J11/02/2017
This is a good product. What sold me was the awesome video that e-trailer had for this product. Actually, their entire site is a treasure trove of good information, reviews, and videos. Plus, they have a price-match policy. In the future, I will look here first for any trailer and truck needs. 448483
by: Greg T.03/13/2017
I had ordered both a class I and class II hitch and several other towing related items and all items arrived very quickly with all parts & components. I had these installed for me at a local trailer place - everything installed nicely and both my vehicles tow accessories worked perfectly. 355934
by: Robert05/02/2018
The quality was excellent but the way it was thrown into the box with the hitch caused the package to open and the keys were lost. They fell out of the big shipping box that the hitch was shipped in. Called customer service and they sent me a replacement very quickly. 503545
by: Brian W02/26/2017
eTrailer.com was great to deal with. Ordered the hitch on Saturday and received the hitch on Wednesday even with a holiday on the Monday. Very easy to install because of the great videos that eTrailer.com had. I will definitely do business with eTrailer.com again. 350253
by: Kent S.04/26/2017
Everything about etrailer is an example of superior customer service and quality merchandise. I ordered the j-lock for a cargo carrier for the hitch I installed today on my Honda CR-V. The hitch was also purchased from etrailer. Keep up the good work. 372894
by: Ric E.02/04/2017
Works like a charm, very happy with this product... 338637
by: JOE SIMMONS12/01/2012
I was very surprise to see the package come so fast it took me only 45 min to in stall the hitch on to my truck I don't have a camra that will take pic and put on to my comp. sorry but the hitch looks very good on the truck. im very happy with it. 60417
by: Rick D S03/03/2017
Arrived in Three Days !!!!! GREAT. Thanks. Glad I watched the videos etrailer has above the J-Pin stabilization pin & Barrel lockset. Installing hitch on my Ford Escape. I like the idea that I can secure the hitch with the J-pin and lock it. 348105
by: KC11/18/2016
This is a great lock, I have been using it for 1 year now and have had no problems with it. It keeps the hitch from rattling and the lock mechanism is still easy to use even after all the dirt and road debris from a years’ worth of travel. 317980
by: Stephen07/06/2018
This is an excellent companion product to the newer receiver hitch platforms that accommodate such a pin that reduces sloppiness in the fit of inserts. The wrench that was included was a big plus and it is easy to stow. 538424
by: Chris W.12/03/2012
Great product! I was excited when I learned it was free with my purchase. It is a little more heavy duty than what I need since I won't be leaving the hitch on all the time, but I can definitely use it on my dads ranch. 60547
by: C Sheppard09/09/2017
Works great. 430383
by: Jim H.08/03/2016
I am very happy with the quality of my trailer hitch locking /ant-rattle pin with a 'key' lock. Service was impeccable and promptly received. Thank You. I will certainly use etrailer.com for any future needs. 278831
by: Ed06/14/2011
The process was effortless! the j-pin was delivered on time and at the lowest cost on the web. The description is accurate and tech support clear. It is like dealing with Amazon! Overall a great experience. 16948
by: Bill06/21/2016
Good product, eliminates a lot of noise. The only downside is the lock cover doesn't weather well, had mine over a year and the "rubber" keyway cover is starting to fail. I would buy another one. 263196
by: Chris08/01/2018
I haven't had a chance to haul anything yet but I'm looking forward to trying out this hook style pin and barrel set I bought from these guys I'm sure it's of great quality and works flawlessly 548592
by: Wayne10/20/2017
Very expedient handling order and shipping I knew exactly where the product was works perfect and very reasonable priced I recommend this company to anyone who has a need I thank you very much 444595
by: Gary12/22/2017
This is one of several item purchased from etrailer and will not be the last. You will not find another on-line store with this many trailer related products, prices and customer support. 462060
by: Doug09/25/2012
I was looking for a product to take the noise out of my hitch. This product works perfectly and I love it. If you have a Draw Tite, Hidden Hitch or Reese this is the hitch pin you want. 55730
by: Bob L12/05/2012
Strong and a very reliable product. The nicest thing is that it will nor add to any rattle when properly installed. Makes it impossible for someone to steal your tongue and ball 60691
by: John08/18/2017
Great hitch pin takes all the wobble out of by cargo carrier and my bike rack must be mated with a compatible hitch like the Draw-Tite which has the second hole for the J-Pin. 421871
by: Kevin S.05/18/2017
Ordered on a Monday and received it the next day. Unbelievable quick service. Also very happy with the hitch. I would definitely recommend this company for your next purchase. 382232
