Will The Master Lock Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock 1479DAT Fit A 2026 Toyota Land Cruiser OEM Hitch?  

Updated 02/25/2026 | Published 02/17/2026

Question:

Do this model fit a 2026 Toyota Land Cruiser OEM hitch? I have heard they are a little wider and may need a longer pin. I like the angle of this one as my old one was difficult to unlock from the side.

Hi Andrew!

The Master Lock Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock - Swivel Head Design - 2" Hitches # 1479DAT has 2-3/4" of useable space, but I think I would go with one that has a little more just to be on the safe side.

With that said, if I were doing this, I would go with the Master Lock Stainless Steel Trailer Hitch Lock for 2-1/2" Receivers # 1469DAT. This has 3-1/4" of useable space, but the same 5/8" diameter pin. Toyota is notorious for having thick hitches and with this one you may end up with a little too much space, but that would be better than too little. And it's dang near the same price.

What are you going to be keeping in your hitch?

Thx! That’s the one I was looking at first but then I saw it was for 2 1/2” hitches so I wasn’t sure. For now it will mostly be the Carr folding hitch step. Just don’t want it stolen. I have an older Master Lock straight pin but it’s seen better days and is tough to unlock from the side. Occasionally a bike rack, although my current Thule has it own pin lock/bolt and a folding cargo carrier which is pretty heavy duty. I may look into a newer, lighter one. Appreciate the advice!

@AndrewB You're very welcome! And I agree, those straight pins can be a pain to get to. This one definitely makes it easier. Now if only they would switch to a barrel style key... Anyway, have fun out there and let me know if there is anything else I can help with! ^___^
