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?

Hey Travis, welcome back! You're friend makes a good point the only way to lock the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch item # BWRVK3305 is to use a padlock like item # Master Lock 1-9/16" Wide Solid Brass Body Padlock item # ML140DLH. The picture below will show you where to install the padlock.
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.
