    2 5/16” Trailer Coupler Locks

    Need some help here. I just purchased a new Ranch King trailer with a 2 5/16 bulldog coupler on it. I have bought a few coupler locks to put on it while it’s being stored under the barn and I can’t seem to find one that fits snug with the larger coupler size. Has anyone here purchased a coupler lock that fits a 2 5/16” coupler snug and secure? The one I have on now, the ball that goes into the coupler is so small it just hangs there. It seems the universal size does not work well for the 2 5/16” size. Let me know what you guys have are using.

    While I don’t live in an area where I am too concerned about someone coming and taking it, I don’t like taking chances. Thanks for the help!

      Yeah I knew they would be brought up, just not looking to spend that much on a lock. Those are the best out there though.

          Buy a couple cheap 2 5/16 balls and cut off the shanks. Put them in the coupler and use a high grade locking pin, Just as effective, less bulky and less cost.

            That is a awesome looking coupler lock. However, like all of them, with the advent of cordless grinders, a cutoff wheel would get you through those in less than 30 seconds.

              True - just slows them down - hopefully long enough to get noticed or worse...

                  Not even that much cordless drill and 3/8 drill bit. Drill out the key hole and you are done. Key holes are brass on most locks remove the tumblers and the lock comes open


                  I do not lock the hitch. I run braided cable through the rims and tuck the lock under the frame somewhere.

                      Dats some funny stuff right there, y’all ever seen how fast a redneck can back up to a locked trailer, wrap it with a piece of chain and haul it off to where they can get the lock removed?

                        My favorite is a long rod about 3/4” diameter with a T on one end and a hole drilled in the other for a padlock. Pass through the holes in the wheels across the trailer and lock. Not terribly easy to spot and a big wake up call to anyone trying to pull it.

                        Or cable/chain both wheels on one side of a tandem together.

                          One of the few locks the LockPickingLawyer recommends.

                          Never knew I could be fascinated by locks until stumbling across that youtube channel
