Doesn't fit 2021 Tundra 2" receiver as it's too short and locking mechanism won't engage. However it does fit our 03 Tacoma so I'll keep it.

This device works great - sturdy construction, easy to use. Gives me that little bit more peace of mind knowing no one is going to easily walk off with my trailer hitch (not that I ever worried about that) or my bike rack (the rack cost me a few bucks and it's nice knowing it's secured with a not easily cut receiver lock.
by: Al02/22/2022
the hitch lock i got with that order was useless (for now) to me because it was sold compatible with the Lock N Roll Articulating trailer hitch item 336VS501 that i bought from you 2-3 yrs ago; but actually it is for a bigger hole.
I do not want to make the hole bigger on the Lock N Roll because there is no much room there, so i will have to get a less diameter lock later on.

Ordered trailer and tire locks with keyed same. All 4 locks arrived with different keys. Tried calling after 15 phone wait was told their systems are down internally. I should call back tomorrow. And wait again? I asked the support person if they could call me about an incorrect order received - was told no I need to call then again tomorrow. I don’t think so, I’ll return the order and buy from another online store.
by: Ralph08/22/2020
Everything worked out well. On time and fits perfect. Attach hitch setup and my new Ridgeline.
It comes with a 2" inch receiver and I have a full compliment of 1.25. stuff from my previous car. All from etrailer i must admit!
so I needed the 2-1.25 reducer, a good lock, and the 7-4 reducer for my goodies!
Thanks for the grest service

great it is used a lot
Ralph - 08/23/2021by: Kent03/20/2022
Excellent fit and finish. Unit is stout and veery well made. Still looks great one year out (truck lives in garage when not driven). Changing from one ball size to the next is easy and fast. Pin requires a small amount of lube every couple months to keep everything smooth and functions as good today as when new. Chrome finish on balls is holding up well.
I use the hitch couple times a week so I do not keep in the stowed position, however, the stowed position is very clean and would an excellent feature for those who tow infrequently.
Overall, very happy with this hitch. Much prefer this unit over storing and changing out the yoke as before.
by: UOO Dad01/02/2016
Straight out of the box looks and feels great. Fits nice and snug inside the 2" Curt hitch receiver. Too early to comment on service life and durability under wet weather conditions but hope for good desired outcome.

No issues after a year of use and exposure to rain and frequent car wash treatments. Thanks for checking and you are welcome

Impressive locking bolt! This item meets and exceeds my initial impressions and security requirements for a sound and secure locking pin. Let’s get it on the road and see how she runs! Kudos to Jessie at etrailer customer service for making this purchase recommendation- what a breeze!
by: Robert03/25/2019
Most will never believe this, but i ordered this locking pin to use in conjunction with the other pin that is the exact same as this one. Except the 1st pin has been installed and in service since late 2009. I used it to hold a hitch in the receiver tube of my motorhome that coupled our hauler trailer to the motorhome. I recently decided we would start flat towing a car, instead of the hauler trailer with the expedition on it.
so i needed one more locking hitch pin to use with the tow bar rise/drop receiver adapter. When i removed the first pin, i expected it to be rusty and not unlockable. SURPRISE, a little wd 40 in the key hole to aid in key insertion and BAM she unlocked and was clean as a whistle.
it was a no brainer to order an exact duplicate for use now.

still works perfect

Great products made in the usa! The ordering tools on the website made it easy and the shipping was very fast. I will always order from etrailer for all my trailering needs.

Good quality metal construction, good fit through hitch. Key insert does not jam with a little silicone lubricant as protection. Easy to lock and unlock

I've had two of these locks and are on a summer rig, work great, no problems so far.

These are great, strong, and keep your bars or hitch covers safe from theft!

I bought this at the same time as one for my 1-1/4" hitch and was able to get them keyed to match. Well made, and fits well too! Easy to use! Love it!
by: Tim 11/23/2021
This lock is perfect for locking a hitch. I wasn't sure if it would work, but it does, and whatever you have in your hitch receiver is secure

Absolutely great, even after a year going through winter it works like new.

Hello, I was installing this lock to lock my also ordered Steelers hitch but it seems to be just short to lock securely. I’ve attached a picture of my hitch. Pls advise
by: Stan 07/27/2021
I've used these over a year for several multi-month long trips to secure a front hitch fora spare tire and for a supertruss mounted hitch extention on my truck when pulling trailers with my truck camper mounted. They've been used across off road desert and Northern winter roads with sand and salt. The locks fit snug and still easily spin to lock and unlock. It is great to have only one key for four locks!
by: Michael L01/22/2022
An excellent lock. The 2 5/8" span did not work for me. Hopefully, I can return it for one with a larger span.

view full answer... - How To Measure For Hitch Receiver Lock Pin SpanThe span you refer to on the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 2" Hitches # e98880 is the usable length of the pin. To properly measure for this, you can measure the outside walls of your hitch at the pin hole. If you measured, and got 2-5/8", you'd need a hitch pin with at least a span of 2-5/8" like # e98880,. Additionally, you'd need to measure the diameter of the pin hole, so you can choose the correct diameter pin as well. Usually class I and II hitches have a 1/2" diameter...

view full answer... - Can I Get 4 Hitch Locks Keyed Alike In Two Different Lengths?The best I can do to get you 4 locking pins is give you the two pins of the same sizes keyed alike.

- What Differences Between etrailer Locking Hitch Pin e98880 and e98882There's not really a reason other than personal preference between the chrome finish # e98880 and the stainless steel # e98882; I happen to prefer the stainless steel option but the chrome does give you a bit nicer finish on the lock which is important to some users. Both locks will do a great job of fighting off corrosion and they can both be keyed alike to other etrailer locks.
view full answer... - Is Stainless Steel or Chrome etrailer Hitch Lock Harder to CutTechnically, chrome is harder than stainless steel but it isn't going to be a difference between stopping a thief or not stopping one. If a thief really wants to, they'll be able to remove any lock, locks are more of a theft deterrent and both require effort to be removed. There aren't specific alloys for the pins and locks, they are made of steel (though all steel is technically an alloy, of course. Having said all of that, the better option between the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver...

For a 1-1/4" receiver, the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 1-1/4" Hitches - Flush - 2-1/8" Span - Chrome # e98879 you were looking at will work just fine since it has a 2-1/8" span and a 1/2" diameter pin to fit in the hitch pin hole.

view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock For Wide 2" Trailer HitchWe do have a hitch lock that will work for you, but the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 2" Hitches # e98880 will not work with your 2" receiver that has an added 1" gap.

view full answer... - Will North Carolina State 2 Inch Trailer Hitch Receiver Cover Fit a 2001 Yukon DenaliThe factory installed hitches on the Yukon are 2 inch hitches so a 2 inch hitch cover would be acceptable.

view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock Recommendation for a 1997 Ford F-150The trailer hitch lock # 5201 is designed to fit in a 5/8 inch diameter hitch pin hole found on a Class III, IV, or V trailer hitch. The span or part that goes through the receiver and accessory is 3-1/2 inches long, overall it is 7-1/4 inches long so it is a fairly long lock. I personally like the flush mount type from etrailer, # e98880. The span is 2-5/8 inches so the 2 ends are flush with the receiver.
