Yep.   I use both the lock that goes on the top of the latch for towing and storage, and the lock that goes in the tongue on the bottom for storage.

Yes........

[ghosthunter]

Yep

You can get locks now that key to your tow rig.

I use locks on both sides.  Various options for both.  I don't trust anyone, anywhere.

Any certain brand or type?   Thanks for the input

I use a master lock standard lock on my coupler. I haven't changed it yet but regardless you're only stopping the opportunistic thieves. If someone really wanted to take it they will find a way. I will eventually get the master lock trailer kit.

I had bad luck with a master lock on the tongue once. Was an absolute pain to cut off after it completely seized. Probably just a one off bad lock but it was annoying enough I haven't bought another of theirs.

As with anything, given enough time. They will get in! JMTCW

Carl, look at www.etrailer.com for ideas.

I just bought a set from home despot that has a tongue pin lock, a receiver ball lock and a master lock for the release it comes with for sets of keys that are keyed for all three locks for about thirty bucks.

A few years back I bought the Diversitech brand. They had keyed alike sets so I only need one key on all the hitches and trailers. It looks like they're now called Fastway. I've been happy with them so far. As Campmeat mentioned, etrailer is a great resource.

Be careful with Etrailer.  I bought a replacement lens for a trailer recently and they gigged me more for shipping than the darned thing cost.

I said for IDEAS, not to buy anything.
