Expert Reply:

Manufacturers of hitch accessories such as bike rack and cargo carriers make the threaded bolts and weldnuts in the accessories uniquely threaded so that you cannot use other manufacturer's products so the Swagman lock, # S64031, is not a confirmed fit for the Curt cargo carrier # C18145.

To lock the carrier to the hitch I recommend using a short cable lock such as # 8419DPF or # TR63255. You would just need to route the cable through the carrier and then through the safety chain loops on the trailer hitch.
