How do you lock this actuator to the trailer ball hitch to prevent trailer theft.? For my current one I can put a combination lock on it for security.

To lock the latch of the Demco Hydraulic Brake Actuator - Drum - Zinc - 2" Ball - 7,000 lbs # DM72VR you were looking at you will need the etrailer Surge Brake Coupler Lock - 3-3/8" Span - 1/4" Diameter - Chrome # e98888.

This lock goes in the hole shown in the included picture and keeps the coupler closed so no one can hook up a hitch ball when the trailer is sitting around, and will also make it so no one can remove the trailer from your hitch ball when it is hooked up to your truck.

I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
