Video Transcript for Feature Breakdown: Fastway Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock

What's going on guys. It's Colin here at etrailer. Today we're going to take a look at this Fastway hitch lock. Now this lock is going to be able to secure any of your hitch mounted accessories like your Fastway ball mounts, any other high end ball mounts you might have, maybe even a cargo carrier. It's going to be a direct replacement for that five eighths pin that you have for your accessory and you're just going to lock it into your hitch receiver. So that's going to be really nice to have to turn it and make sure no one can just come up and remove that standard five eighths pin and clip and then just walk off with your hitch mounted accessory.

Now this pin has a really nice sturdy steel construction. It's also got a chrome plated finish, so it's going to be really strong and durable and it's also going to resist rust and corrosion. And it's also going to fit up to your three inch by three inch hitch receiver.Right now. We have a two and a half inch by two and a half inch receiver. So you can see there's a good amount of play right here in our pin, that's going to just be there so that it'll fit your three inch receiver if you want to use it for that.

Or if you wanted to, if you had multiple vehicles in your household or you maybe just downsized in your truck size and downsize to a two inch receiver. You could just use this for that two inch receiver as well. Just keep in mind you're going to have a half inch more of play than you see right now. The inside diameter of our pin is going to be five eighths like I said. And then the inside width from the lock to the other side right here is going to be three and five eighths of an inch, so like I said, it'll fit those three inch hitches pretty well.We have a really nice all weather dust cap right here protecting our lock cylinder from getting any of that dirt, debris, road salts inside the lock cylinder and causing any problems.

It is a pretty unique key right here, is going to make it very hard to pick. You just line it up and we can unlock it. We have some nice grips on the side right here, I can just grab it with two fingers and pull it right off, and pull the pin out so you guys can have a closer look at it. We've got some nice O rings on the inside of the lock cylinder. Pretty hard to see right now, but you can kind of feel it when you put it on to the pin.

You can kind of have to compress it a bit to lock it up. Those O rings are going to prevent water, dirt, debris from sinking inside from the pin down into the lock cylinder which could cause problems.Now I've worked with this hitch pin a lot today. I can safely tell you that I'm really impressed with it. I think it does a great job of preventing theft on your hitch mounted accessories. That lock is really snug on there. It's going to be very hard for someone to come and pick this unique lock cylinder right here. Now what's also nice about it is that if you own any other Fastway products like our ball mount right here, you can actually get this in different types of kits to where you could have a hitch lock and a lock for your ball mount itself to make sure it secures it on there. So right now on our ball mount, we just have a standard pin and clip system. So if someone really wanted to, they could remove this pin and clip and do off with just the ball mount right here and just the platform would stay locked on there. You can get that in a kit and that'll secure it very nicely.Now if you're still unsure about this Lock, you kind of thinking you want to look at something different, I would suggest looking at etrailer, lock right here. I just have it in my pocket and show you guys real quick. They're both going to do a great job. They both have a steel construction to it, so it's going to be very solid. It's going to be very hard to pick, though this system is a little different. I'll show you this real quick. There's going to be a standard key, but it's kind of a pick proof system, meaning that we have to unscrew it from the threads that are on the lock. So it makes it very hard to pick. It's a little bit more work to get off a little bit more challenging. But in my opinion, in some cases it does provide you with more peace of mind. Either way, whichever lock you go with, even if it's not one of these two, you definitely want to make sure you pick one up to secure any of your hitch mounted accessories.

Fastway Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock - 2", 2-1/2", and 3" Hitches - 3-5/8" Span - FA86-00-3160

Average Customer Rating:  4.7 out of 5 stars   (137 Customer Reviews)


by:

It is okay for Weebles to wobble (as long as they don’t fall down) but hitch pins should not.

At least Fastway is consistent in attention to detail. The span of the usable span is actually 3 5/8” not 3.25” as indicated on the packaging but the diameter is 79/128” not 5/8”. I understand the difference is only 1/128 but, at least in my new truck’s hitch, it wobbles a little. A true 5/8’ hitch pin does not wobble, the one I have is just not long enough. So at the moment I will use this lockable hitch pin but will be on the look out for a replacement. This is unfortunate because it appears to be otherwise well constructed



by:

Does exactly what it's supposed to do. I use it to keep my weight distribution hitch on my truck! LOL.



by:

Hitch lock worked perfectly for my 3 inch receiver.



by:

Worked exactly as described. I use it to attach my weather tech bumper step. Plenty of room with my 2.5 hitch.

Excellent product. This lock has been in use for a year now with no problems or issues.

I put hitch lock on with hitch receiver and have not removed it from 1 year ago.



by:

The receiver lock was exactly what I wanted it is a nice lock and easy to use!



by:

Looks good, feels good, fit perfect, decent price, locks good and so far so good. Time will tell if corrosion messes it up.



by:

Product seems very good put in on the hitch right away. Have not towed anything yet.
Not happy with the shipping time. This item went to California then had to come back to Arizona. Only reason I can figure is that was the cheapest shipping option for etrailer.

Exactly as advertised and just what I needed for my 2&1/2" hitch receiver. It is well made and was delivered in a timely manner. I will be ordering more things from etrailer.



by:

Its another locking pin. Does not fit tighter in the hole or anything. Just an easy install normal locking pin.



by:

I am very happy to find a locking hitch pin with barrel keys. This will make it so much simpler to find the right key from the jumble of keys on my key ring when I'm rigging my tow vehicle.



by: 09/23/2022

your delivery system is pathetic and your personal that handle the calls rude. You sent me an email telling me my package is here. Its not. I called your representative state that I had to call ups or start an eight day (8) check process. Then your representative told me that UPS put in my mail box, which my house does not have. We have neighborhood central box that ONLY USPS has the keys other than me us to access our mail. I am currently partially disabled. I didn't expect to have to drive to pick up the unit I assume was paid to be delivered to my door; let alone stand in a line for an hour. But than your representative told me that USPS has now delivered it??????
I am still waiting for my wife to come home and get the mail; I am unable at this time. I am not happy! I have no proof, but you have my money nice.



by:

Great lock. Rubber cap are holding up good. Functions good.



by:

This receiver lock work like new after using for a year. It has been used in through the seasons including the winter snow and road salt. I would purchase again if I need another one.



by:

I have ordered many items from etrailer over the years and I have been very happy with the products and customer service. They are a great company and place the customer first.



by:

Received as advertised and prompt shipp ing.

  • Troubleshooting Fastway Trailer Hitch Lock Not Turning To Unlock
    We have a few different hints on how to help get the key to turn so you can unlock the Fastway Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # FA86-00-3160. First I would try inserting the key and then lightly tapping the back of the key with a rubber mallet to make sure the key is fully seated. If that doesn't get it done then next use a silicone-based lubricant spay like # RM-747 or real penetrating oil, which will help loosen things up. Do not use WD-40 because that could mess things up internally. After...

  • 5/8 Inch Locking Trailer Pin
    We have two options for a locking 5/8" locking pin and both are keyed unique. Which means you won't get to select which key you get and can't get multiple locks that work with the same key. Each of these do come with two keys. They are the Fastway Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock - 2" Hitches - 5/8" Diameter item # FA86-00-3050 which fits 2" hitches. And the Fastway Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock 3-5/8" Span item # FA86-00-3160 which fits 2", 2-1/2", and 3" Hitches.

  • Adapter & Reducer Sleever For 3 Inch Hitch to Use Bike Rack With 2 Inch Shank
    I would definitely go in a different direction to use your bike rack with a 2 inch shank in your 3 inch receiver. There's a simple solution which is just to use a 3 inch to 2 inch adapter sleeve and then a 2 inch hitch extender and you're set. So the best option is going to be the following: - Trailer Hitch Receiver Reducer Sleeves - 3" to 2-1/2" or 2" # e33YR - Trailer Hitch Extender for 2" Hitch Receivers - 8" Long # e88YR Just put the sleeves in to turn your 3 inch hitch into a 2...

  • Hitch Pin Hole Size of Buyers Products 3 to 2 Receiver Tube Adapter
    The Buyers Products 3" to 2" Receiver Tube Adapter part # 337RTA302 uses two 5/8" diameter hitch pin holes, on both the 3" and 2" receiver side. That said, the pin does need to be a bit longer than the standard ones on the 3" side, for this I recommend the Fastway Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock part # FA86-00-3160.

They do not offer this with a matching 2-1/2" hitch receiver lock. I recommend getting the Fastway Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # FA86-00-3160 with the Bulldog lock above as they both use different style keys so you will not confuse the 2 different locks. It fits a 2"-3" hitch receiver.
