What is the appropriate hitch lock for the Twist Step and 2" trailer hitch. Have 2013 Lexus RX450h

At the time we bought our Twist Step (last March) I couldn't find a lock that worked with our 2" hitch. I did buy one but it didn't fit so we just didn't lock it. If I recall, as I did more research they weren't available. I hope this helps!

I do not know but you can go to an autozone and they can tell you. That is where I purchased my hitch for my Twist step. My dog when she is let out of the house goes to back of the car and waits for us to depart. She wants to go for her ride and the twist step is her ticket to go.

Hi JH, You would need to purchase a SR0901 - SportRack Hitch Pin Bolt with lock (http://www.sportrack.com/p/hitch-pin-bolt-with-lock?pp=24)

I do not know of one that is compatible but I have contacted Prorack through email to find out if they have one that they sell or can recommend one that will fit. If you would also like to contact them, there email is support@prorackgear.com or Phone: 888-925-4621, Option 2 I am curious about this as well for I would also like to have a hitch pin that screws in with a lock for this rack.

Toyota and Lexus use the exact same push-pins throughout. They fit both my 2015 Lexus GS 450 Hybrid F Sport and my wife's 2014 Toyota Avalon Hybrid.

I don't remember, it's been awhile since I did it. I know it's the same lockset that is on travel trailers. Since my cargo trailer didn't have anything before I started, I had to custom fit it.

Sorry, I am not the seller or maker of these hitches. I am only a customer. You'll have to ask the company or a vendor. Good luck.

This is not a car specific locking pin but it fits 50mm [2 inch] towing hitch If your tow hitch is this size it will fit

The hole is for a 1-1/4" shank on the trailer ball, I am not sure if 2" balls are available in that shank size. You would not normally need the strength of a forged ball hitch when a 2" ball is used. The weight of the loaded trailer determines the strength of the ball and of the hitch required.

DBuff, I bought this kit, but found that I only needed the threaded(highly recommend) hitch lock to secure the hitch. I additionally bought two padlocks to secure the bike ratchets easily- this also assured me that my bikes stayed cinched down opposed to only using the cable. Hope this helps.

My husband has an 05 Subaru Outback. He had to modify the hitch by cutting the back end of the 2" receiver box 1" from the top, angled to the bottom, because the car bumper is angled. As is, he only had 1/2 a hole at the back hole. ( He used a tool that looks like a chop saw but has a grinder?)

I am using the combination of a Master Lock 72DPF Heavy Duty Cable, 15 Feet Braided Steel, 3/8-Inch Diameter with a Master Lock 40DPF Round Padlock with Shielded Shackle, 2-3/4-Inch, Stainless Steel. This allows me to pass the cable through four bike frames and the wheels, the security loops on the bike rack and finally through the hitch on the vehicle. It makes for an easy-to-manage and relatively secure set-up that allows me to park long enough to grab a meal or gas. I do not think there is a manageable solution that would give me the peace of mind to leave the bikes on the car overnight. If you are asking about which lock to secure the rack within the hitch receptor, none that I researched looked to be anymore secure or as simple to use as the cabled approach I described. You are going to want to lock your bikes in addition to the hitch so why not kill two birds with one stone (and one key). I also decided to use the Curt Manufacturing 21510 Coated Hitch Pin and Clip instead of the stock pin which makes for quick, tool-free installation and removal of the hitch. However if you go this route, you will need to enlarge the holes on the Allen Sports Deluxe rack as they use a slightly smaller than standard hitch bolt; enlarging the holes is something that can be done with a good quality bit, your average electric drill, some oil to keep the bit lubricated and about five minutes of drilling . The upside is the Curt Hitch pin is significantly more substantial than the Allen Hitch bolt and so much easier to deal with.

They make an adapter to use from a Class 3 to a 2 hitch and they also make a part that stops rattling with your adapter. Amazon has this part in which I'm going to purchase for my hitch.

Try searching for a 'trailer hitch lock' you should find what will work for your needs.

The lock should just push onto the bolt and lock itself, you do not need the key in the lock to make it lock. Make sure the bolt is all the way through the hitch so the lock can snap into place

No, the shank between the locking head and the bend is just over 2-5/8" long - a little slack when used with a 2" receiver, but it would need to be at least 3-1/4" long to fit a 2-1/2" receiver. Amazon does offer a Class 5 locking hitch pin, though; see Trimax SXT5 Premium 5/8" Class V Extended Receiver Lock

Yes, I use it on a 2010 Lexus RX450h. It works perfectly. You just have to loosen the gas side a lot to get it over the bulge of the pedal, but it works.

The rack shank will slide into the hitch receiver and lock in place with a pin. If it doesn't assemble, verify you actually have a 2" receiver, not a 1.25" which is more common on light duty SUVs.
