Question:
Are there locking pins for the coupler to the base arms? A friend of mine ask what would happen if they pulled the pins and stole your coupler...any thoughts on this?

What kind of trailer do you have?

Hey Jerred I was talking about the pins on either side, holding the head unit to the upright mounting bars. He was asking what if somebody comes and pulls those big pins and just lift your head right off of the upright mounting bars? Thank you Travis Gray.
