For your SportsRack Bike Carrier and hitch receiver, I recommend the HitchMate Threaded Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 2" Hitches # HE6001. This threaded locking hitch pin has an overall length of 5-7/8 inches. The distance betwwen the lock and the head of the bolt is 3-1/4 inches. The threaded portion is about 2 inches. These measurements can be found in the attached video.
