Hi Grahame, they are the best I came across after looking for something that would virtually stop anyone who try's to hook up my van. I lock my hitch as well with a padlock. Had mine a couple of years now, sure gives peace of mind.

I used to have one of these locks and they are good,however I left the device in the hitch for nearly a year and rust jammed the thing.If you do have one just make sure you don't leave it in situ too long.
Grease it up before attaching, and maybe cover it with a plastic bage or something. It looks like a good idea. I've never locked my van on site, but you've raised my suspicions now, so I might have to go and get a lock.

They will take anything - we had our van on a pad at the front of the house, came out and someone had cut the power lead (the one that goes from van to car) - right at the van connector end - and being a 7 point plug (one of the old round ones) - the auto elec wanted $150 to fix it - but hubby being clever fixed it for about $20. Thing was we had a trailer sitting on opposite side of driveway for years with the same plug - never touched that!!!!!

Thanks for that ,just ordered one. When we had the old dear no one would have given her a second look. Now we have a nice 21.6 ft Roadstar some one is quite nervice about leaving it on its own.. This may help with the nervers... Just keeping the insurance payed up will also help... Bob n Bev....
