Question:
What is the thread size for the threaded hitch pin on the Rhino Rack T-Loader RTL002? Will a Thule THSTL2 fit the threads on the T-Loader? I already have the Thule lock and would like to avoid buying a second lock for the T-Loader. If the threads of the pin are different, will the Thule lock at least lock over the end of the Rhino Rack pin to secure it?

Hey Rick, I wish I could say yes a Thule locking hitch pin would work with your Rhino Rack T-Load part # RTL002 but they are different sizes. The good news is the T-Load comes with a lock for the hitch pin so you won't need anything else.

I bought my T-loader used. It did not come with a lock; however, I do have the anti-rattle pin. Is there a lock I could use with it?

Jameson - I ordered the rhino rack T loader, and it came with the rhino rack lock for the hitch pin. Might want to make that clear in your product t listing, so others don’t have the same ci fusion or order a lock they won’t need to buy separately.
