Trailer lock

[cab13367]

jester,
do you have a swing away tongue?
Another option is to pull the pin and put 2 locks in the open pin holes on the swing away so that it cannot be closed/put back into towing position..

Here's a more secure alternative to two padlocks as it would be more difficult to cut.

Cab,

That is a great find. I am going to place an order for one this week and i will take pic's on how well it fits.

I use something like this, which fits nicely where the coupler safety pin goes:

Brad,

I have not. I don't leave my trailer out other than when it's sitting at the ramp parking lot attached to my Durango while we are on the water. For that, I have a lock on my hitch receiver and a lock that replaces the pin on the trailer tongue. And both are keyed alike.

All this talk of a trailer lock got me to thinking about my old school Kryptonite bike lock that I haven't used since college. Well, it happens to work perfectly as a swing tongue trailer lock! See pic below.

We are going to the lake for 5 days (leaving tomorrow) during which time the boat will be in the water 24/7 and the trailer will be all by itself in a distant parking lot so this will come in handy.

Great thinking, but are these any cheaper than the other finds?
