I have another option for you, but Malone does not make an anti-rattle hitch lock for 1-1/4" trailer hitch receivers.

Instead I recommend the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 1-1/4" Trailer Hitches # RM-061-125 which will keep the accessories in your 1-1/4" receiver from rattling while you are driving.

I included a video of the # RM-061-125 being installed for you to take a look at.

You can have a 2-5/16 inch hitch ball on either a 1 inch or 1-1/4 inch shank. The nut on a hitch ball with a 1-1/4 inch shank takes a wrench with a 1-7/8 inch socket. A hitch ball with a 1 inch shank will take a wrench with a 1-1/2 inch socket. You…

Most often the anti-rattle bolts and locks used on bike racks are unique to the specific brand and sometimes even to the particular rack model. Racks with threaded holes in their shanks are made to accept specific matching threaded bolts to provide…

The anti-rattle adapter I recommend is the No-Rattle Trailer Hitch Wedge, part #MPG908. This will work for 1-1/4 inch and 2 inch receivers and is designed to insert into the small gap that may exist on your receiver. You then tighten it up after it…

Yes, the CE Smith Multi Sport Plus Boat and Kayak Trailer w/ Bunks #CE48870 does come pre-greased. You will want to grease the hubs approximately every 12 months or 12,000 miles.
