LPL picks Reese hitch ball lock in probably under 5 seconds.  Then breaks it with a ramset.



So what is a good stout hitch lock?

I've used these, but locks only keep honest people out.

almost all locks can be brocken or cut easy. Sometimes shocking easy. Best thing is just keep good insurance on trailers.

I just use a Masterlock padlock through the hole in the trailer coupler.

Especially true since thieves have started using those cordless cut-off tools.
