• How to Lock the Ark Articulating Off-Road Coupler to Deter Theft
• Hey Sam, thanks for reaching out! The Ark Articulating Off-Road Coupler for 2" Receivers # AR44FR is a great way to add some versatility in where your trailer can be towed, but since everything can move around it does present some challenges when we're looking for coupler locks. The best option for keeping your trailer (and the Ark coupler) from walking off is for you to use the Stainless Steel Coupler Lock # e98882 to secure the Ark to your trailer, and then the BulletProof Hitches Extreme...

• Safety Pin Diameter for the Curt SecureLatch Pintle Hook
• The safety pin on the Curt SecureLatch Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Ball # CU57FR is 1/4" in diameter but the hole is oversized by about an 1/8". If you don't already have one, I'd also recommended getting a hitch lock # AMP37FR so you can keep everything safe and locked up to your vehicle.

• How Do You Tow A 2WD Truck With The Drive Wheels In The Back?
• Hello Ronnie. Generally, we do not recommend that you tow a 2wd truck with the drive wheels in the back in the way you described. Although, towability can differ depending on what vehicle you have and without knowing exactly what truck you have it is hard to give more specifics. I suggest that you check your owner's manual and follow whatever guidelines they list pertaining to flat towing or dolly towing your vehicle.

• Thanks for reaching out, Roy! The term "best" can be a little subjective since everyone has their own experiences and needs/wants, but in regards to which bike rack has the best features it is the Thule Epos Bike Rack # TH99XE hands-down because it comes with a locking quick-pin system for easily installing the rack to a hitch, individual towers and locks for the bikes, wheels to help make toting it around easier, and a step on the back for tilting the rack away from the vehicle.

• Recommended Roof Rack For a 2023 Toyota 4Runner Raised Rails To Use a Load Assisted Kayak Carrier
• Personally I would go with Thule roof rack since their Hullavator Pro Kayak Roof Rack # TH898 is by far the best option for a load assisted kayak rack. This rack allows you to do all your straps from the lowered position making it so much easier to both load and unload a kayak up to 75lbs. By using a Thule roof rack it also allows you to use all the same Lock Cores # TH450800 so you only have one key for all your locks. You will need their WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711420 and Feet # TH710401...

• Front Mount Bike Rack Assembly For a 2010 Toyota Tacoma
• The best way to put a front mount bike rack on a 2010 Toyota Tacoma is by installing a front hitch # 31313. The 2" receiver and 350 lb TW capacity will allow you to carry pretty much any bike rack of your choosing. I am not sure what kind of bikes you have or how many you need to carry. A great option for a 2-bike rack is the Hollywood Racks Trail Rider # HR200Z. This rack can hold two bikes weighing up to 45 lbs apiece. I like this rack particularly for front mount applications because...
