Tow Ready J-Pin locking anti-rattle device for 2" trailer hitch receivers.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
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
Innovative product. Works well with bike rack which previously rattled and bounced excessively. This appears to tighten everything well. 59536
Work's great on our new hitch, keep's the bike rack from rattling. Thanks etrailer for the great service. 440497
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
Summary: The J-Pin is the best invention since sliced bread! If etrailer were more efficient it would be illegal. 153704
Works as expected! Can tow a empty dolly without any sway. If you have a huge amount of play be warned that the hook end will give your receiver a bit of an angle. Didn't seem to affect towing for me though! 643963
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
Great product. It gets rid of the rattle and feels mor firm. 616163
I really like this product. When it is not being used to secure a hitch cargo carrier, I use it to leave a ball mount/hitch ball in permanence on my vehicle, so that people keep their distance when parking. I had originally spayed it with white lithium spray grease (on the exterior only; not in the mechanism or lock) to reduce corrosion, but road salt has been eating it a bit, and got into the key hole (because the flimsy rubber cover fell off a couple of months after purchase). So, I dipped the whole thing in degreaser to to remove the lithium grease, then dipped it in hot water 3-4 times to try to dissolve the road salt that got into the key hole, then submerged the whole thing in 70% isopropyl alcohol to help remove the remaining salt and remove some of the water from the first rinses, then submerged it in 99% isopropyl alcohol to remove the remaining water (from the 70:30 isopropanol:water), then put it for a couple of hours in the oven at 225 Farenheit (water boils at 212 Farenheit) to evaporate every last bit of water, and finally lubricated the lock with graphite. So, for those of you who live in or drive through areas where road salt is used and want to avoid this thorough clean-up, I would suggest you take a thick plastic bag, put some silica gel cat litter (to absorb any moisture in the plastic bag), put the bag over the lock, and seal the bag with a tie-wrap or a couple of rubber bands. That should keep humidity and dust out of the mechanism. 645186
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
Excellent quality 695244
Great price on sale. Very well constructed and very heavy gauge steel. I plan to install the hitch next week on my new 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee). Per thgeir videos and instructions, the install will truly be easy. (I plan to install the purchased wiring kit later.) My only issue is that the shipping carton needs to be better reinforced. The flanges of the htich had broken through the box and the paint was scrapped off in spots down to bare metal. No damage to the hitch itself at all but I spray painted those spots with black paint to ensure they did not rust prematurely. Very happy with the quality of the J-Pin lock#63201 as well. Same for the wiring kit. 681696
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
This was recommended because I have a Draw Tite hitch (two holes in the receiver) and was having trouble getting the original pin to lock, the bike rack was wobbly in the receiver. Turns out there is a nut welded to the *inside* of the bike rack so the J-pin wouldn't even go all the way through. If I had been given better instructions for installing the lock pin that came with the rack I wouldn't have even needed this. Company was quick and easy to work with on returning it though so there's that. 688685
Nice design and fit perfectly with my Draw-Tite Max-Frame hitch. I haven't tried it with a trailer yet but it seems like it will work well. 700186
