Helpful Expert Reply:
If you installed the Locking Anti-Rattle, Threaded Hitch Pin # S64029 and you couldn't fully tighten it down and now you can't back it out I believe you have stripped the hitch pin. It might stay put how it is but I would try to uninstall it (might have to drill it out) and then install a new one properly.
Make sure when you install it that it is not facing at an angle and that you don't force it to start threading right off the bat.
