Question:
I am looking for a locking anti-rattle hitch pin threaded pin. Using it with a oversized bike rack large, heavy, lots of sway. Many reviews online indicate that threads fail on many products. Which one is best built? thanks

Expert Reply:
The threaded hitch pins we offer as anti-rattle devices are designed specifically to fit certain bike racks.
Without knowing what bike rack you have I can't recommend one, but if the bike rack has a hollow shank you could use a # 63232 and it will take the sway out the rack and will lock it to the hitch.
A second option is the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch, part # RM-061. The Quiet Hitch bolts around the junction of the ball mount and the receiver tube, locking the two together.
