• 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.

• Is Gen-Y Glyder Shock Absorbing Ball Mount Overkill For Smaller Trailer
  Hey Manny, Even with a smaller trailer, it is not overkill and you can absolutely benefit using the Gen-Y Glyder Shock Absorbing Ball Mount for 2" Hitches # 325-GH-12001. A trailer, regardless of size, is still going to be rigid, bounce, and affect the ride of your tow vehicle and the trailer. So adding some cushioning like you get with the Glyder is definitely a good idea, and something I recommend. So if you do decide to go with the ball mount you'll also need a hitch ball, either...

• What Hitch Pin Will Work With etrailer Class 3 Hitch e98902
  Hello Paul, thanks for reaching out. The etrailer Class 3 Hitch # e98902 has a standard 5/8" hitch pin hole. Any hitch pin for a 2" hitch should be this same 5/8" diameter. That diameter is very common. A hitch pin such as part # e98881 is what I recommend to go with the # e98902 hitch. What hitch pin did you buy? Was it not a 5/8" diameter pin?

• Longer Hitch Pin for a Yakima Bike Rack Being Used on a 2024 Toyota Tacoma w/the Thicker 2" Receiver
  Thanks for the pictures John! I reached out to Yakima and they are aware of the double wall receiver on the new Toyota's but do not have a solution for it as of (09/12/2024). The only solution I have for you today is to drill out the threads on your bike rack and use the etrailer Hitch Receiver Lock item # e98881. This is designed to fit both 2" and 2-1/2" receivers so the diameter will be the same and the added length will get you past Toyota's double walled receiver.

• Can The Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack Be Used On a Class V, 2-1/2 Receiver?
  The Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack # TH903202 will only fit a 1-1/4" or 2" receiver directly. You can use a Brophy Hitch Reducer and Extender # HR26 that will allow for the stinger to fit on your vehicle. The stinger that holds the rack into the receiver will not work on a 2-1/2" or 3" receiver. The Curt Anti-Rattle Hitch Clamp # C87UR will take the rattle out of the extender and allow for the entire bike rack to be solid as it has its own built in anti-rattle for the 2" or 1-1/4" receivers....

• Long Adjustable Ball Mount For 11,000 lb Trailer
  So there isn't a 6 inch hitch extender for a 2 inch hitch that has an 11,000 lb capacity and 1,200 lb tongue weight capacity, and hitch extenders also reduce the capacity of your hitch by 50 percent, so they are generally just used for accessories like bike racks or cargo carriers. That means the best option we can offer is a ball mount with an extended reach, which may work for you depending on the distance you need. The longest ball mount that has the capacity you need is from BulletProof...

• Can Thule T2 Pro XTR Bike Rack Use Hitch Extender
  Hi there Kay; you can use a hitch extender with the Thule T2 Pro XTR Bike Rack # TH83JV. Keep in mind, the use of an extender like the # e88YR will reduce the capacity of your hitch by 50%. As long as your hitch can still hold the bike rack and bikes with this 50% reduction it won't be a problem. I also recommend grabbing the etrailer Hitch Receiver Lock # e98881 for the extender to keep your bike rack secure.

• Compatibility of Keyed Alike Extended Length Locking Hitch Pin and Trailer Coupler Locks
  The Master Lock Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock and Coupler Lock Set - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches # 3794DAT are keyed alike, but adding the extended length locking pins will not allow the keyed alike to also include those pins.

For the coupler locks and the hitch pin length you are seeking, you will have two different keys because you have two different manufacturers...

• Is Replacement CCP Key Available for Lock Pin

• Recommended 7-Way Connector for a 2023 Chevy Express Cargo Van
  Unfortunately that 12 pin rectangular plug has nothing to do with the trailer wiring harness. To add a 7-way and 4-way connector to your 2023 Chevy Express Cargo van you're going to need to buy two separate harnesses. The reason for this is that the van's with the towing package came from the factory with the 7-way connectors like item # HM40975. The other ones have nothing and no one made a custom fit 7-way that just plugs in. The first connector you will need is the Curt Wiring Harness...

• Is There Anything Holding Inno Tire Hold 1-Bike Rack In 2-1/2 to 2 Inch Sleeve
  You aren't missing anything whatsoever. Due to the way the Inno Tire Hold Bike Rack for 1 Bike # INH110 mounts, the only thing holding the 2 inch sleeve in your 2-1/2 inch hitch is the safety pin of the Tire Hold. Basically if it were a standard 2 inch hitch, tightening the Tire Hold's handle, like you mentioned, would help secure it in the hitch along with the safety pin, but with a sleeve, that doesn't happen. There isn't a product that will improve that specific connection, and I would...
