Both devices are designed to help tighten the connection between the hitch and the towing accessory. Between the two, I recommend the Road Master Quit Hitch, like # RM-061 for 2 inch hitches. The Quiet Hitch's U-bolt design might give you a stronger connection over the Pro Series Anti-Rattle one bolt design.

The Road Master Quiet Hitch is designed to help immobilize your ball mount or towing accessory when installed in the hitch. When you tighten the nuts on the immobilizer, the U-bolt will pull up on the ball mount or hitch accessory to help secure the shank into the hitch.

The Pro Series Anti-Rattle, # PS63091 for 2 inch hitches, slips over the ball mount or towing accessory's shank. The bolt is tighten to draw the shank up tight into the trailer hitch.

The two points of connection, on the U-bolt, should be a stronger than the one bolt of the Pro Series device. Also, the Pro Series device's mounting bolt directly touches the hitch. Over time, the bolt might wear in to the paint and metal of your hitch.
