A-Frame Coupler Lock for Wide Latch

Question

Question:

Does the 1/4" lockable pin in product Item # 1481DAT extend from the lock to the bent end? Im looking for a 1/4 inch lockable pin for a 2 inch A-frame cast coupler. Will this one work for me. The unlockable pin that is on the coupler is 2-3/4 inch.

There is a solution for you, though the Master Lock Hitch Receiver and Coupler Latch Lock Set # 1481DAT will fit coupler latches that are 2". Instead, I recommend the Bulldog Easy Access Coupler Lock # BD580409 which has a 1/4" pin diameter and spans 3-5/8".

I've added links to video reviews of this coupler lock for you to take a look at.
