Convert-A-Ball Dual-Cushioned, Adjustable Ball Mount - 7" Rise to 9-1/2" Drop - 5,000 lbs Item # CAB-UM uses a 5/8 inch diameter pin for the adjustment part of the ball mount. This is the same as the regular hitch pin hole.
The overall width at the adjust part is wider than the shank on the ball mount so if you are looking at locks I recommend # e98881 which has a useable span of 3-5/8 inches and you can order more than one keyed the same by selecting the keyed alike option on the page. I have linked a video review of this lock for you.
