Does The Mount N Lock Bumper Hitch Receiver Lock On To Your Bumper
Question:
I would like to use this on a 2022 JAYCO JAY FLIGHT SLX 195RB This may be an odd question, but does this lock to your bumper so someone can’t unbolt it, and steal your bike rack and bikes on it? I have a 2022 Jayco Jay Flight SLX 195RB. Is the back bumper strong enough to hold this and the combined weight 135 lbs of my Saris rack, and two pedal assist bikes.

I talked to one of our install team members about the Mount-n-Lock ShakeStopper for 6" RV Bumpers - 2" Hitch Receiver - 400 lbs # MO64VR.
The easiest option would be to replace the Coupling Bolts (shown below, threaded into Coupling Nut) with tamper-resistant bolts (further below). If the coupling bolts can’t be removed, the hitch can’t be removed. You will want a Grade 5 equivalent (120,000 psi tensile strength).
Bumper weight capacities vary by manufacturer and by model. Even some of the same model may even be different depending on where they were made and the parts available at the time. Please be sure to verify the weight capacity of your bumper with the manufacturer prior to loading. You can call and give them your VIN, the manufacturer will be able to tell you the bumper weight capacity.
If you have a 4 inch bumper you can use the Mount-n-Lock SafetyStruts Universal RV Bumper Support Brackets - 4" to 4-1/2" # MO34VR to increase the capacity of your bumper.
So as long as your bumper can handle the weight you will be in the clear.
