Coupler Lock Comparison for Securing a Travel Trailer
Question:
Thanks for the information. Now wondering about the Trailer Coupler Lock - Gorilla Guard For 2-5/16 Couplers. Is the Diversi-Tech still superior?

Expert Reply:
Any type of lock you put on your trailer will be a theft deterrent. I recommend using the Fastway Universal Coupler Lock, part # FA86-0015-316, because it can mount on 1-7/8, 2 and 2-5/16 inch couplers and it fits on a wide variety of coupler types. The Diversi-Tech lock will be harder and noisier to break off than the Master Lock coupler lock which is a better deterrent for thieves.
Wheel locks are also a secure option, but can be tedious to apply and still gives thieves a chance to hook on to your trailer.
