Question:
I have a 13 foot vintage trillium fiberglass camper. The trailer hitch came of the ball during travel. I bought a coupler repair kit. Is there any other product I could purchase to ensure this does not occur again. Thanks

Helpful Expert Reply:
Hey Peter! Hopefully nobody was hurt, including your camper. Since you have a trigger latch I would add a lock like the InfiniteRule Trailer Coupler Lock # IR58FR. This will keep it secure while you're hooked up to the ball mount on your vehicle and prevent it from coming unlatched while towing.
