Expert Reply:

Although we do have hitch pins that are compatible with 2-1/2 inch hitch receivers, the Master Lock Pivot Lock Hitch Pin, like part # ML1495DAT, is only available for 2 inch hitches.

If your concern is that you will lose the clip with a standard pin and clip like part # PC3 then I have a recommendation for you.

I recommend using a locking hitch pin, like part # TR63253, which has a bulky lock in the place of a clip. Not only will it be easier to find on the ground if you dropped it, but it also adds a layer of security to your towing setup and helps to prevent theft of anything that you are using in your 2-1/2 inch hitch receiver.

I have attached a review video that you can check out for more info.
