Expert Reply:

The MasterLock High Security King Pin Lock, Item # ML387, is not compatible with your Big Tex Gooseneck Trailer. The MasterLock is for fifth wheel trailers and will not work with gooseneck trailers. We do have some gooseneck locks like the the Blaylock EZ Lock Gooseneck Coupler Lock, Item # BLTL-50-40D, that will work if you have a Bulldog, Stallion, Superior, or T.E.M. coupler.

If this will not work for you, let me know which coupler you have and I will look for other options.
