Question:
I was wondering if there is a anti-rattle locking hitch pin you can tow with? Not big trailers like landscaping of snowmobile 2 place Trailers thank you

Hi Brian; the reason you aren't seeing an anti-rattle hitch pin for towing is because they're all designed to fit hollow shanks. A ball mount like the # BWTS10035B you were looking at is going to have a solid shank which means the anti-rattle won't work. What you can use instead is the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 2" Trailer Hitches # RM-061. This fits around the receiver and shank to keep it secure so it will work with anything. Then you can add a standard locking hitch pin like the # e98881.
