Expert Answers about Toyota Wheel Locks


  • Will The Rackem Magnum Wheel Lock # RA-25 Prevent Wheel From Turning

  • Will Rackem Magnum Wheel Lock # RA-25 Still Work If a Thief Deflates the Trailer Tire
  • My technical contact at Rackem earnestly believes even if a thief deflated the tires on the trailer that the Rackem Magnum Wheel Lock # RA-25 would not be defeated. This lock clamps onto the actual wheel of the trailer and does so extremely snug. With that being said, even if the tire was deflated, the ability for the lock to move while locked on the wheel does not change meaning it will still not move. The trailer would be able to move a bit forward however the lock would either hit...

  • Can the Ends of the Rackem Magnum Wheel Lock be Cut with Bolt Cutters
  • I pulled the Rack em Magnum Wheel Lock, # RA-25, and found that it measured 1 inch x 7/8 of an inch at its narrowest point at the end of the arms. It would be difficult for a thief to use bolt cutters to cut through the arms of this wheel lock and if they did manage to do so, cutting near the ends of the arms will most likely not be enough to actually remove the lock from the wheel. They would have to cut through a thicker section to remove the lock. One thing to remember is that locks...

  • The # CAB-C5G Convert-A-Ball Cushioned 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Adapter can easily be locked by using a padlock like part # ML4140LH. . You'd pass the shackle of the lock through the locking handle slot and out the hole in the foot of the coupler. This prevents the coupler from being opened, so it can be used while the trailer is hitched or when it's not. Either way, the lock will help deter theft by making it difficult to unlock the coupler.

  • Should The Steering Be Locked When Flat Towing A Keyless Car
  • Since you're looking at the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX1312 I assume you're trying to flat tow your vehicle. If this is the case then you would not want to lock the steering wheel up under any circumstance. Locking the wheel will prevent the front wheels from turning with the motorhome as you make turns and will just drag the car and ruin your wheels. Every vehicle that can be flat towed has a list of instructions in the owner's manual that will set the vehicle into neutral to prevent damage....

  • Best Lock For B&W 5th Wheel Hitch Head
  • While there isn't a replacement pin lock or padlock that will work, B&W has told us the best way to lock the hitch head is by using a cable lock. For that I recommend an adjustable cable lock: - Python Adjustable Cable Lock # 8419DPF The reason I like the Python lock is because it lets you adjust the locking mechanism to the length you want to tighten it around the hitch so there is no slack. The lock is also heavy-duty, made with 5/16" diameter braided steel designed specifically to...

  • Can a Replacement Key For The Club Steering Wheel Lock Be Cut Without An Original Key?
  • Typically a locksmith will use the cut key from The Club Vehicle Steering Wheel Lock # WI900YELLOW to cut the Blank Key # WI490KEY.

They may be able to remove your lock cylinder and cut the key to operate the lock.

  • How to Lock 5th Wheel Hitch
  • That's going to depend on which 5th wheel hitch you have and whether it mounts via industry standard bed rails or via an OEM puck system. If you have a industry standard rail mounted hitch, you can replace one of the existing pins that hold the hitch to the bed rails with a locking pin like # TR63254. If your hitch doesn't use bed rails, please reply with the manufacturer and the model number of your hitch, and let me know how it mounts, and I'd be happy to help.

  • Can Ark XO Trailer Jack be Stowed in Vertical Position
  • Technically you could stow the Xtreme Off-Road Swing-Up Jack # ORJW500D in the vertical position if you really wanted to, and yes the wheels will still lock, though clearance would likely be an issue if stowed that way. If at all possible and you can move the cargo basket or just flip the jack up and turn the wheels downwards on the # ORJW500D while traveling that would be ideal.
