See what our Experts say about this Blue Ox Trailer Hitch Lock

  • Longest Trailer Hitch Lock for 10 Locks Keyed Alike
    The Blue Ox # BX88177 consists of two 1/2 inch diameter and 2 5/8 inch diameter pins. They are only able to have the 4 keyed alike. The measurement is 4-3/8 inches between the opening like # BX88212 which cannot be keyed alike . The only option to get all ten keyed alike is to use the DeadBolt Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock - Extra Long - Flush Design for 2-1/2" Trailer Hitches # e98881 which measures 3-5/8 inches between the outside cylinders. I've attached photos to assist.

  • Hitch Receiver Lock for Toyota Tacoma OEM Receiver Hitch
    The OEM receivers on the newer Tacoma and Tundra models are wider than what's usually seen, so a longer lock is needed (as you seem to already know). We came up with a lock that has a inside span of 3-5/8 inches which works perfectly with those Toyota OEM hitches, part # e98881. The Blue Ox # BX88212 would also work, as its inside span is long enough, but our option is less expensive, so that's what I'd recommend.

  • Locking Hitch Pin for 3 Pins on B&W Tow & Stow Ball Mounts for 2-1/2 Trailer Hitch
    The Bulldog Hitch Receiver Lock # BD580412 that you referenced is a little short for the adjustable part of the B&W Tow & Stow 2-Ball Mount # BWTS20037B but we do have something that will work instead. The Blue Ox Lock # BX88212 measures long enough to fit the Tow & Stow!

  • Stainless Steel Hitch Lock that Fits 2-1/2 inch Trailer Hitch
    Since hitch pins don't typically carry the weight of a trailer they are not weight rated. Normally it's the tongue weight of the trailer that pins the ball mount to the hitch tube which keeps it in place and not the hitch pin. This is not stainless but we have the part # C23519 which is similar and is stainless.

  • Locking Pin Compatible with BWGNC4250 Gooseneck Coupler
    The B&W Defender Locking Gooseneck Coupler Inner Tube - Round - 2-5/16" Ball - 25,000 lbs # BWGNC4250 would require an incredible lifting height of the trailer steadily straight up to release a trailer when locked at the coupler to the hitch ball. That is the only reason it doesn't come with the locking pin you referenced. The InfiniteRule Hitch Lock for Gen-Y Gooseneck Coupler w/ 4" Round Tube - Stainless Steel # 34065041 would be a great fit. It is a 3/4 inch diameter lock that has...

  • Three Locking Hitch Pins for Class V 2-1/2 Inch Hitch Receiver that Can be Keyed Alike
    We do have a way for you to lock your ball mount to your hitch receiver but unfortunately, the Blue Ox # BX88212 is not able to be keyed alike. For another solution,our etrailer.com lock # e98881 fits 2-1/2 inch Class V hitch receivers and can be keyed alike. Just select the drop down to do so on the product page when ordering. Hitch pins don't actually bear any of the trailer's weight so they are not given a weight rating. They are tested to be used with a Class V hitch and therefore...

  • What Does the Span of a Locking Hitch Pin Refer To
    The span of a locking hitch pin like the Blue Ox # BX8858 means the amount of space that can fit between the two walls of the hitch receiver- so yes, basically the distance from the outside wall of one side of the receiver to the other. We have noticed that certain Toyota factory hitches have a thicker walls on their receivers that measure 2-7/8" instead of just under 2-3/4" so if you've got a Toyota truck with a factory receiver you would need to use a locking hitch pin like the # BX88212...

  • Having Trouble Getting Key To Turn On Blue Ox Hitch Lock BX88212
    If the key won't turn at all it could be a stuck tumbler. I recommend getting some WD40 and spraying it into the key hole. Use the key to work the WD40 into the lock core inserting and removing the key several times. Eventually, hopefully the lock core will release and work again. Otherwise, the lock might be beyond saving and will need to be replaced.

  • Locking Adjustment Pins for the B&W Tow & Stow 2-Ball Mount Part # BWTS10037C
    Yes, in order to prevent the adjustment pins part # BWTS35010 from being stolen on your B&W Tow & Stow 2-Ball Mount part # BWTS10037C you are going to need a hitch pin lock that has a 5/8" diameter and at least 4-1/2" span. For this, I recommend the Blue Ox Trailer Lock part # BX88212 which is one of the very few options that meet the above criteria. Please keep in mind that the built-in channel prevents removal of the platform when the ball mount is installed, which will help prevent theft.

  • Long Locking Hitch Pin Needed for Class V Trailer Hitch on a Chevy K2500 Pickup Truck
    You might be able to use Blue Ox pin # BX88212 which measures 4-3/8 inches between the ends so it will work. The best way to measure to ensure the clearance needed is to use a tape measure that is small enough to fit through the hitch pin holes. Then measure the outside to outside width of the hitch that way.

  • Keyed Alike Trailer Hitch Lock for 2-1/2 Inch Trailer Hitch
    Although there is an option for a trailer hitch receiver lock for a 2-1/2" trailer hitch that you can get keyed alike, the Blue Ox Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # BX88212 is not one that you can get keyed alike.

To order them keyed alike, just hit the "Keyed Alike" option in the drop-down box on the product page and enter the quantity you need. I added...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2019 Nissan Titan SV
    Out of the Draw-Tite # 76154 and the Curt # C13304 trailer hitches I recommend the Curt option for your 2019 Nissan Titan SV because Curt tends to have stronger welds and a thicker powder coat which gives it better protection. Both options have the same weight ratings and so it really boils down to construction, for which Curt takes the prize. Since most people who install trailer hitches on pickups typically use it for towing you'll also need wiring and a ball mount to complete a towing...
