HappiJac hasn't really developed a great solution for licking their turnbuckles yet. There are some options, but it also depends on what HappiJac turnbuckles that you have.

If you have the HappiJac Qwik-Load Turnbuckles # LC182895, you would just need to locate a lock that fits in the hole, in place of the pin that goes through the handle.

The Pin Locks for TorkLift # TLS9500 may work. They are 1/4" in diameter and the length of the shaft when locked is 1-1/4". As long as the hole in the handle allows the 1/4" to fit and the 1-1/4" length clears through both sides of the handle, the # TLS9500 will work.

If you have the HappiJac Original Turnbuckles # LC182898, there really isn't a great solution for locking them. But they can be converted to the Qwik-Load using the HappiJac Qwik-Load Upgrade Kit # LC182894.

If the Pin Locks for TorkLift # TLS9500 do not work, please let me know the diameter and length that fit and I can recommend a compatible couple lock that will work.
