Cool to follow up on your product. The multi-ball works as it should. I bought it since I didn't know if the trailer I would get would be 2" or 2 1/4. I tow a 4,000 # trailer/race car with it.

It's a heavy piece to carry around, but I feel that it will last a good many years. I did make a spacer to cram into the receiver, so the hitch doesn't rattle as much.
Otherwise it's great.

by:

I have several of these locking pins that were all keyed alike. I lost one and the good folks at etrailer were able to send me a matching replacement. Now I don't have to distribute multiple keys to everyone. I've used a number of locking pins in the past and this is my favorite. No tiny flange that barely grips the pin that feels like you could pull it apart with your hands. You rotate the key several times and it screws the two parts together. A much better system



by:

Yes the trailer, ball hitch and battery you installed worked great. It has served us well and you did a great job.



by:

My second pair for a different hitch. No rattle and no issues for over 5000 miles. Love the option of keyed alike option for less keys. Highly recommend and excellent customer service and support!



by:

Have bought a second pair due to the quality of it. Have used it to travel half the country without any issues. During my second pair for another hitch, I incurred an issue in getting the correct one but the customer service was there each time to resolve the problem and in a timely manner!



by:

Too short to fit hitch even though website states it will fit 2 inch hitches.



by:

Most will never believe this, but i ordered this locking pin to use in conjunction with the other pin that is the exact same as this one. Except the 1st pin has been installed and in service since late 2009. I used it to hold a hitch in the receiver tube of my motorhome that coupled our hauler trailer to the motorhome. I recently decided we would start flat towing a car, instead of the hauler trailer with the expedition on it.
so i needed one more locking hitch pin to use with the tow bar rise/drop receiver adapter. When i removed the first pin, i expected it to be rusty and not unlockable. SURPRISE, a little wd 40 in the key hole to aid in key insertion and BAM she unlocked and was clean as a whistle.
it was a no brainer to order an exact duplicate for use now.

still works perfect



by:

Great product and great service. Somehow this part was not received in the initial order. etrailer sent me an email checking up on the delivery (nice service) and I let them know what happened and after a few questions, they immediately sent me a replacement.

I am very impressed with their service! I highly recommend etrailer!!



by:

Straight out of the box looks and feels great. Fits nice and snug inside the 2" Curt hitch receiver. Too early to comment on service life and durability under wet weather conditions but hope for good desired outcome.

No issues after a year of use and exposure to rain and frequent car wash treatments. Thanks for checking and you are welcome



by:

Perfect product! It does exactly as described. And the folks at etrailer are always very helpful!



by:

this trailer lock fits a 2x2 hitch perfectly. I like the turn key style to prevent picking the lock. The cap that covers key lock fits snug. I just got it and like it. I hope it holds up well



by:

The items that I ordered from etrailer arrive very quickly and were exactly what I needed. Customer service gets an AAA rating. Items are of good quality and look great on my new 2022 Ford Explorer ST!



by:

I purchased this to replace a similar locking pin that had begun to show wear after 15 years of rigorous towing. I believe this pin is well made and will last another 15 years.



by:

Fit perfectly and is sturdy

Great

My husband is a proud Bluewater Vietnam Navy Veteran, celebrating his 50th year anniversary of coming home. My husband is retired & I decided to get a trailer hitchcover for his old truck, to compliment his combat veteran's license plate.
While searching for a unique, eye catching hitchcover, I came across etrailer.com. The cover I chose is eye catching, unique & a sturdy heavy plastic. It was easy to install & the lock, purchased with it, will keep it in place!
He loved the cover - and the price! PS: Still young at heart!



by:

I wanted a Lock that was easy to use, and impossible to make a mistake that could leave it unlatched. After using it for a year, this lock does both, and was not expensive.
It is easy to use by actually turning the pin, and holding the key still, rather than trying to turn the key. And you know for sure it is properly latched because the lock end closes up to the side of the receiver



by:

The item was not long enough to go through my 2019 Toyota tundra receiver hitch. I’m having to return it after calling and getting a real nice help from Trevor to get a longer one sent to me and return this one for Credit.



by:

Doesn't fit 2021 Tundra 2" receiver as it's too short and locking mechanism won't engage. However it does fit our 03 Tacoma so I'll keep it.

For the Toyota Tacoma with has a thicker 2 inch OEM receiver, I recommend part # e98881 which has a 3.62 inch span.



by:

So far so good. Fit perfect, very little side to side movement.



by:

The first time I used this it came apart and fell out of the hitch receiver. I had locked it and tested it but after 200 miles or so, it had come apart and fell out. I am very lucky that my trailer did not go flying down the road, it was close to coming off of the car though. So glad that I checked it at a gas stop.



by:

Well, the pin looks great. It appears to be just as advertised, however. I ran into a problem in that I had ordered two pins to be keyed alike, but they are not. Stuff like that could happen anywhere. I got on the phone with etrailer and they are sending me a replacement. In my view, that is the mark of a great vendor to work with.

Well not quite a year, actually only a few days. A correctly keyed pin arrived today, I now have two pins that work with the same key. They work great with my Gen-Y hitch. As I anticipated in my prior review, etrailer promptly made things right. Getting both pins keyed the same is convenient. Between bike racks, tonneau cover, camper, racks, and one or two extras, I have a bunch of keys. Every key I can eliminate is a win.



by:

Good products.



by:

Everything worked out well. On time and fits perfect. Attach hitch setup and my new Ridgeline.
It comes with a 2" inch receiver and I have a full compliment of 1.25. stuff from my previous car. All from etrailer i must admit!
so I needed the 2-1.25 reducer, a good lock, and the 7-4 reducer for my goodies!
Thanks for the grest service

great it is used a lot



by:

I really like my trailer hitch lock. It is well made. It holds my Texas hitch cover in place. It fits perfectly.



by:

The lock looked exactly as described and was super easy to install to my hitch. I would highly recommend it. The customer service that I received from Etrailer was exceptional.

  • Can Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount be Used for Bike Rack Between Car and Travel Trailer
    So long as you have the needed space between your RAV4 and travel trailer for your bike rack and trikes to fit you can use the Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount with 2" Receiver for Bike Racks and Cargo Carriers # D210. There's no way for me to know how much room you have or if you have the needed space so you'd need to take some measurements, of course, and the # D210 extends 12-1/2" from the hitch pin hole to the hitch ball. This ball mount - when you are towing and using an accessory at...

So to carry cargo with your '19 Enclave, the best option we have is a trailer hitch receiver and cargo carrier. - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # CU29FR - Stromberg Carlson Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches # CC-100 - Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # e98880 I have added a link below to a video...

  • Will Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter Add Rise or Drop to Trailer
    Adding a dual hitch receiver adapter will not add any rise or drop to your towing set up so you could easily use the dual hitch receiver adapter without issue. The Malone Dual Hitch Extender for 2" Trailer Hitches # MPG544 will be straight out and isn't at an angle but that inch is not going to be problematic. Getting 100 percent level in any towing set up is difficult so a single inch is going to be fine. This dual adapter has a long 12" extension and will give you a pair of receivers...

  • Dual Receiver Hitch Adapter to Use Hitch Bike Rack and Tow Bar
    I suggest the Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter # RM-077-2 which will fit your 2-inch hitch and provide the dual receiver opening you need to use your hitch bike rack along with your tow bar. This item carries a flat towing capacity of 10K and a tongue weight rating (TW) of 400-lbs. You can lock it to your RV hitch with pin lock # e98880. If you need more rise/drop instead use similar Roadmaster part # RM-077-4 which has 4-inches of rise/drop.

    Hitch Pins like the etrailer.com Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock, part # e98880, do not have a weight capacity listed.

This hitch pin has an overall length of 6 inches and is designed to fit 2 inch receivers. This hitch pin has a covered key slot to help prevent corrosion. I have attached a link to a product review video for this hitch pin you can check out.

If you will be placing any cargo in the carrier that would block the view of your tail lights from vehicles behind you a tail light kit is required.
