• How to Get Multiple Keyed Alike Trailer Hitch And Coupler Locks
  We have an option for you, though there isn't a way to get matching keys for a Master Lock # 2848DAT trailer hitch and coupler lock set as they don't have a Keyed Alike option for a second set. What you can do in order to use the same key for multiple trailer hitch locks and coupler locks is use the etrailer locks, and select the "Keyed Alike" option from the drop-down on their product pages. This will get you all the locks keyed the same so you only have to keep track of a single key....

• Availability of Coupler Lock With a 5/16 inch Pin Diameter
  A pin with a 1/4 inch diameter, like part # e98886, is standard for coupler locks. Unfortunately there are none that are 1/16 of an inch larger in diameter. If instead you meant that you needed one with a span of 5/8 of an inch then you will want to go with the Master Lock Adjustable Trailer Coupler Lock # 2847DAT which has a 5/8 inch adjustment setting. If you meant that the pin diameter needed to be 5/8 inches then you are looking for part # e98880.

• Recommended Ball Mount for 2 Inch Ball with No Rise and No Drop
  For a 2 inch hitch ball that has no rise and no drop, I recommend the Curt Solid 2-Ball Mount for 2" Hitches - 2" and 2-5/16" Balls - 10K - Black # C45660. For your anti-rattle, I recommend the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 2" Trailer Hitches # RM-061 which will give you the anti-rattle and then # e98880 for a locking hitch pin. If you want a 3 ball option I recommend # C62KR.

• Can Curt Pintle Hook Mounting Plate Only be Used in Drop Position
  Hello Jose, It is indeed true that the Curt Pintle Hook Mounting Plate # C48343 can only be used in the drop position; it cannot be used in the rise position. There is a similar, 8-hole pintle hook mounting plate which CAN be used in the rise position if you like, the B&W Pintle Hook Mounting Plate # BWPMHD14002. You can secure this to your hitch using lock # e98880.

• Can a 1-1/4 - 2 Adapter be Used to Safely Haul a Cargo Carrier with a 2015 Toyota Corolla
  The concept of a hitch adapter like the Brophy # HTAD is a good idea in theory but the problem with using one of those with a 1-1/4" hitch, like part # C11265 or # 24913 for your 2015 Toyota Corolla, is that it will reduce the weight capacity of your trailer hitch by 50%. Since those trailer hitches have a tongue weight rating of 200 lbs this means that the tongue weight will be reduced to 100 lbs. If you were to use all of this for the 24x59 Curt Cargo Carrier # C18151 you would only...

• How Does Lock N Roll Articulating Trailer Hitch 336VS501 Deter Theft
  The vehicle side of the Lock N Roll Articulating Trailer Hitch # 336VS501 can be locked to the vehicle's 2-inch receiver hitch using any standard pin lock such as # e98880. The mating part that bolts or welds on to the trailer # 336TS508 will only couple to the Lock N Roll system. Unlike a traditional ball coupler, which is compatible with any hitch ball of a matching size, the trailer-side Lock 'N' Roll coupler can only connect to a vehicle-side Lock 'N' Roll hitch. So your trailer cannot...

• Recommended Hitch for a 2026 Toyota Corolla Cross and How to Install It
  Hey Michael, congrats on the new SUV. The EcoHitch item # EH87CR does not require you to remove the rear bumper assembly when installing. It does require some slight fascia trimming though. You'll have to remove a 2-3/4” deep and 4-1/2” wide section that sits below your Cross. This allows the 2" receiver to extend below your bumper. Please note that the EcoHitch item # EH87CR only fits the hybrid models of the 2026 Toyota Corolla Cross. If yours is not a hybrid, you'll need the Curt item...

• Determining Correct Ball Mount or Draw Bar for your Vehicle and Trailer Combination for Level Towing
  To find the correct ball mount you want to measure from the inside top opening of the receiver on your truck to the ground. Then you want to measure the trailer from the bottom of the coupler to the ground when the trailer is level. The difference between those two measurements will give you the proper rise or drop for your application. I've attached an article to assist. If you don't want to use a fixed mount, or if you pull different trailers, you may want to consider an adjustable...

• Towing Utility Trailer With Bike Rack While Needing More Rise From Ball Mount
  I think we have a solution for you here, but the two parts you mentioned are using an adapter and adapter together. What you can do instead is which is use a Gen-Y ball mount shanks with stacked receivers. This gives you the ability use both a ball mount and bike rack, stacked at different heights so they don't interfere with each other. I'm not sure how much more rise you need, so here are a couple options: - 7-1/2" Drop/Rise: Shank for Gen-Y Adjustable Ball Mount # 325-GH-304 - 10"...

• Parts Needed to Complete Towing Package on 2020 Land Rover Defender D110 with Factory Towing
  Unfortunately we do not have towing components like a hitch or wiring that have been confirmed to fit on the 2020 Land Rover Defender yet, but if your vehicle came with the towing package included you should already have a hitch and wiring present though. If you actually just need a ball mount and hitch ball that fit into the receiver, then it looks like the D110 comes with a 2" receiver. For that I recommend starting with something like the Curt # C45230, which can be used for trailers...

• Can 2015 Lexus GX 460 Tow 6,500 lbs with Aftermarket Hitch?
  We only have two aftermarket hitches confirmed to fit your 2015 Lexus GX 460 and both max out at 5,000 lbs towing capacity and are not rated for using weight distribution systems. There is not an option to get the 6,500 lb capacity of your the factory system. The hitch will be the limiting factory for your towing. If you want to add the 5,000 lb capacity, you can use the Curt # C13043 or Draw-Tite # 75685. These are very similar hitches that install in the exact same location. I recommend...

• What Spare Tire Solution do You Recommend for RV?
  I reached out to all of our current spare-tire manufacturers and we unfortunately do not carry a bumper-mount option that is approved for class c tires. However, there is still the option of adding a front hitch and a front-mounted spare tire carrier. I can definitely assist you in that option if you are interested.

• Hitch Pin Weight Capacity and Sheer Strength
  We aren't manufacturers of those parts, and we don't have the testing ability in house, so I reached out to a couple of our manufacturers to see what information they could provide to try and help. I reached out to my contact at Curt regarding the pin and clip # C21500 and he said they haven't ever needed to test the sheer strength of a pin because the hitches and ball mounts will fail before the pin does every single time. They are rated for 6 figures easily. He gave an example of a...

• Pin and Clip Recommendation for a Curt Cargo Carrier part # C18153
  As long as you have a 2 inch hitch installed on your 2013 Toyota Sienna the Curt Cargo Carrier part # C18153 would fit and work well for you. It does not come with a pin and clip but you have a couple options. For a standard pin and clip you would want part # PC3, for a locking one part # e98880, and finally for a locking anti-rattle one you would want the part # 63232.

• Towing While Using Thule T2 Pro XTR Bike Rack
  There is a way for you to tow your small trailer AND use the Thule T2 Pro XTR 2 Bike Rack # TH83JV, although you would not be able to do so by replacing the lower tube on the rack. Instead, what you can do is use the Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount with 2" Receiver # D210. This has a ball mount that fits 2" hitches and has a receiver above it; the receiver is also 2" so it will work with the T2 Pro XTR. The ball mount can be locked to your current hitch with Hitch Lock # e98880 and for a...

  Hey Marc, yes the locking hitch pin part # WS54CR will work with the stacked Replacement Shank for Gen-Y Adjustable Ball Mount # 325-GH-306 you are interested in but since would prefer the hitch pin locks to be keyed alike a better option would be the # e98880 which you could have keyed alike and order as many as you want all keyed the same. The Gen-Y does give you the ability to change the height of your hitch like you are looking for as well.

• Can Brake and Tail Light L.E.D. Trailer Hitch Cover # FHG72VR be Used as Only Taillight
  The Flint Hill Goods Square LED Brake Light Hitch Cover for 2" Hitches # FHG72VR is intended as a cosmetic accessory item. It is not DOT-approved as a brake/tail light for use on its own. All of your vehicle standard brake and tail lights must still be used along with this product. The light illuminates red when running lights are on and LED lights in the background brighten when the brake pedal is pressed.

• Trailer Hitch, Ball Mount, Hitch Ball, and Hitch Lock Recommendations for a 2007 Mercedes ML350
  Yes, the Curt Class III Trailer Hitch Receiver, # 13342, is a confirmed for your 2007 Mercedes ML350 as long as it does not have the Air Ride Suspension. I have included a link to the instructions below. Hitches do not come with a ball mount. So you might also be interested in Ball Mount # C45010, and a ball. For hitch balls you can use, # 19260 (1-7/8 inch diameter), # 63845 (2 inch diameter), or # 63853 (2-5/16 inch diameter) depending on your towing needs. I also recommend a Trailer...

• Locking Trailer Hitch Pin for Bike Rack on 2 Inch Trailer Hitch Receiver
  The Curt hitch you purchased is part # C13272 which is a 2 inch receiver so the pin hole is 5/8 inches. A good standard lock to fit is part # e98880. With that being said, a lot of bike racks have threaded hitch pins so you can't use just a standard locking pin. Their threads are usually specific to their own locks so you might need to purchase a specific lock for your specific bike rack. If you let me know which bike rack you have I can help you with a specific locking pin.

• Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2017 Subaru Outback Wagon
  For your 2017 Subaru Outback Wagon the Draw Tite hitch part # 75673 is a confirmed fit and would be a great choice. This is a 2-inch hitch which is the most popular hitch size for accessories and has the best capacities. For trailer wiring the part # 118467 would also be the correct kit to get. The Convert-A-Ball ball mount # AMSC2 would work too if you needed a 2-inch drop. You will also need a product like part # PC3, part # e98880, or part # 63232 to secure the accessory in your 2"...

• Using 1-1/4 Bike Rack With 2 Inch Stealth Hitches Receiver on Volvo V60
  Hey there Rick, there is a way to use your 1-1/4" Kuat Sherpa 2.0 # SH12G with the 2" receiver that comes with the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH47FR. What you would need to do is simply use an adapter, the Hitch Reducer 2" to 1-1/4" # HT02. This will go in the 2" receiver and essentially turn it into a 1-1/4" receiver. It comes with a 1-1/4" pin and clip, though you won't be using that for your Sherpa so you can disregard it. The only thing you would need is something to secure...

• Best Extended Ball Mount for Towing a 4,000 lbs Trailer
  Hey Ben! All of the hitch extenders like the Gen-Y item # GY89SR are going to reduce your hitch's capacity by 50% so I am not sure that's going to work with your Land Rover's towing capacity. So long as you are not using a ball mount with a bunch of drop the easiest way to get some extra distance is to use the Hidden Hitch Ball Mount item # 80232. The Hidden Hitch Ball Mount item # 80232 is 15-3/4" long from the hitch pin hole to the center of the hitch ball. It does have 2" of drop built...

• How to Use Thule T2 Pro XTR Bike Rack For 1-1/4" Hitch in 2" Hitch
  Hey Blake, So there are a couple options here, but the adapter you mentioned isn't a fit and won't work with the Thule T2 Pro XTR Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" Hitches # TH23JV. One option is to switch the entire stinger assembly for the T2 Pro XTR to the one for a 2" hitch, which is the Replacement Lower Assembly and 2" Stinger for Thule T2 Pro XTR 2-Bike Rack # TH37MY. However, that's not exactly cheap, but I did want to mention it just to cover all the options. What I recommend instead...
