if you are running a hitch around here and someone rear ends you they can SUE YOU for negligence.
yes I know, it dont make sense but I have seen it happen and they won.
Sounds like yet another reason to not live anywhere near that awful place.

I saw these at a 4Wheel parts store where I picked up my receiver & ball. I was wondering if they were any good. I may go and pick up one.

Thanks for the info!

We sell them in our store and customers love them. You will likely pay about $10 more than a regular lock but they're worth it. They are keyed to match your ignition key. No worries about EVER losing the key to your lock again. And, your buddy can't borrow it and never bring it back because it won't work with his truck keys.

I won't own anything else.

I'm wondering if there's anything that can be done to secure it short of buying three (yeah, that's right, three) locking hitch pins?

Does anyone have one of these and know of a good way to secure it?
a good locking pin and clip will secure that ball mount for you. I prefer the Curt MFG ones, but that is just a personal preference
