Replacement Hitch Pin for XPORT FlatbedLR 2 Bike Rack

Question

Question:

Im looking for a locking pin. The thread on my rack is a standard 1/2 13 thread. None of your description show any threa measurements. From the looks of it the SA3002 might work, I just need to know the thrad measurement. Thanks,

Typically the threads on the locking pins that come with bike racks are proprietary, so each company is going to have a different thread pitch that is designed to work on the shanks of their bike racks. From some previous customers we've determined that you should be able to use Hollywood Racks part # HRLHPTC, which is a set of hitch and cable locks that includesa 1/2-inch diameter threaded hitch pin with the same thread pitch as the Xport part. This hitch pin is not sold separately, so you would need to purchase the entire package just to get the pin.
