How to Lock Trailer that has a Reese Goose Box
Question:
Will this lock work with the Reese goosebox 20k version? If not can you recommend a lock that will?
asked by: Lance M
Expert Reply:
The design of the Reese Goose Boxes like # RP85FR prohibits the use of locks designed for standard gooseneck couplers. They cannot grab onto the coupler like they are supposed to.
To secure the trailer a wheel lock such as # WI490 or # RA-25 or something similar is recommended instead. I have linked some videos on these locks for you. These lock the wheels of the trailer instead which is a very effective theft deterrent.
