Expert Reply:
The Bulldog Lifelong Trailer Hitch Lock # BD580402 for 2-Inch Hitches is a general-purpose 5/8-inch diameter hitch lock intended for standard 2 x 2-inch trailer hitch receivers. It is not described as a universal-fit item though it will fit the majority of 2-inch receivers with the exception of some factory hitches that have an outside width greater than 2-1/2-inches.
Bulldog describes this a Lifelong lock due to its stainless steel construction and reliable ball-bearing lock mechanism.
The inside span of this lock, the portion that fits inside the receiver tube itself, is 2-1/2-inches wide so as long as your 2-inch receiver tube is not more than 2-1/2-inches wide at the outside then this lock should work fine. The linked video illustrates its features and operation.
