Is Hitch Lock Included w/ Hollywood Racks Hitch and Cable Lock # HRLHPTC An Anti-Rattle Lock
Question:
1. The only model listed on the Mfgr. website is the LHPTC. Is your HRLHPTC model the same i.e. the HR in front of it just your internal store code? 2. If it is indeed the SAME model, why is this listed as anti-rattleinch on your website when the product description, product box, mfgr. website is not advertised as such i.e. anti-rattle?...

Expert Reply:
The # HRLHPTC we offer is our part number for the Hollywood Racks LHPTC. It is the same exact item.
The hitch lock offered with the # HRLHPTC is indeed an anti-rattle lock, as indicated by the threaded portion of the hitch bolt. The threaded portion is designed to engage a threaded nut or sleeve inside the shank of certain Hollywood Racks hitch mounted bike racks. When the threaded bolt is drawn down, it pulls the shank of the bike rack tightly up against the inside of the receiver tube which prevents the rack from wobbling around in the receiver.
I couldn't say why Hollywood Racks doesn't describe it as an anti-rattle lock.
