Some jackarse stole my trailer ball (who does that?!) and I needed a new one.

Saw this one at Advance for $25 vs Amazon that had a similar one without the lock for $28.

My local store was out of stock but another had one available. It's also available for shipping. You'll just need to pad your order over $35.

Seemed like a decent deal so I thought I'd share.

Friends don't let friends use locking hitch pins.

It's only a matter of time before the lock rusts, freezes, or otherwise fails and you have to cut the damn thing off.
For people who regularly remove their hitch it's fine. But if you're going to run around with your hitch all the time that's definitely a problem.
I have an adjustable height trailer hitch. I bought it so that I can always be flat with whatever trailer I'm towing. With this one your trailer would only be flat if it happens to match, which as soon as you change trailer or tow vehicle, it won't match anymore. The ball is also welded to the hitch which means you don't have ability to change ball sizes. Also it's not even a good deal, harbor freight has the hitch mount for $16 and ball for $9 which means it's really just regular price except you get a locking pin instead of regular pin with this deal.

What other tow hitch mount does the code "TOWING24" work on? I'm looking for a 2" drop hitch mount

What do you all think about Curt? I've always chosen Reese just based on recommendations since I was little.

Want in on a little secret? Any small key (size of original) will unlock the pin. Trust me.

A cheap, reliable regular hitch pin. People aren't going to steal your trailer. If you're worried about the hitch, take it off.
