Recommended Way to Lock a Fifth Wheel Trailer with a Ranch Hitch Fifth Wheel Adapter
Question:
We have a 2014 5th wheel. We have the Ranch Hitch Universal 5th wheel to gooseneck coupler adaptor Is there and kind of ball lock to secure the trailer when not towing so as to not be stolen

Expert Reply:
What I would recommend for your fifth wheel is actually a wheel lock since the Ranch Hitch part # AM3100 doesn't have a great way to lock it.
The most popular option we have is the Rack'em part # RA-25 which would attach to the wheel of your trailer regardless of what coupler you have on your trailer. It has two sizes to fit basically any trailer wheel size. One side works on 12"-15" wheels, the other 15"-20" wheels. Check out the review video I attached for more info as well.
