Expert Reply:
The Curt Anti-Rattle Hitch Clamp # C87UR is a good option, but I personally an not a total fan of the clamping handle piece. If the point where the handle should be snapped down is 1/4 turn too much, you would either have to back it off that 1/4 turn, or try to over tighten it to get the handle in the correct spot. It does, however, have a very nice feature. This is a tool free install and removal process. The nut can get a little tight while in use, but generally, once the snap handle is unbuckled, you can pull it off with just your fingers.
That all being said, I prefer the simplicity of the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch # RM-062. This would require tools for the installation and removal, but you wont have to worry about getting a snap handle into the correct position. Just tighten it down and be on your way. As this is tightened down with tools, I also believe this can get a tighter fit.
