The Bulldog BX1 gooseneck couplers have that handle assembly at the bottom so the # BLTL-50 would not fit. The BX1 series of gooseneck couplers can be locked with a padlock like the part # 141T.

When the BX1 couplers are in the coupled position, you can place a padlock through the hole as indicated in the picture. The coupler could then not be opened with or without a trailer connected.

I did some checking and the hub/drum we offer that will work for you is the part #8-430-5UC3. This uses the same bearings as the 8-415 and will be an exact fit aside from the fact this is a non-ABS setup and the 8-415 came in an ABS setup and non-ABS…
