Does the Curt Bike Rack C18065 have an Anti-Rattle Hitch Bolt

Question

Question:

I appreciate your website and all of the detailed videos your provide! I am interested in the Curt 18065 Premium Dual-Arm 5-Bike Rack and have a couple of questions. Does this bike rack have a locking hitch pin available? Does the existing hitch pin keep the rack from moving rattling within the receiver? Thank you for your time.

The Curt Bike Rack part # C18065 does include a threaded hitch pin bolt that will tighten the shank of the rack to the hitch that the rack is installed in.

For a lock that you could run through the end of the bolt after it is installed you could use the # 131D.
