Trailer Hitch Lock for GMC Sierra 2500 with 2-1/2 inch Class V Hitch
Question:
I have a 2011 GMC 2500. A 5inch locking receiver hitch pin is too short for my trucks 2.5inch receiver. Which of your locking hitch pins will fit my vehicle? Thanks,

Our erailer.com Hitch Lock part # e98881 SHOULD fit and work as a hitch lock for the 2-1/2 inch hitch on your 2011 GMC Sierra. We have found that it fits the factory hitch of 2-1/2 inch hitches on 2010= GMC/Chevy trucks well.
The usable span of this hitch lock is 3-5/8 inches. You will want to measure the outside distance of your hitch tube to see if this would be enough.
Another option with more span is the part # AM3492 that has a usable span of 4-1/2 inches. This comes with an extra lock though that you wouldn't need.
