King Pin Lock

I just bought a Fifth Wheel King Pin Lock for ours. Costs around $35 - $40, but don't have to worry about someone driving off the storage lot with it.

I use one of these along with a heavy duty combination lock (I don't need more keys!):

If my 5er isn't attached to the truck, it has this on it. Almost any locking device can be defeated given enough time to work at it, but, this is easy to use, no additional keys to keep track of if you use a commercial heavy duty combination lock and is easy on, easy off and hangs on the same hook my power cable is attached to in the front compartment.

thanks.

5er Hitch Lock

I purchased a 5er hitch lock from Camping World for about $40. It is a keyed/screw-on locking mechanism.

While I was at it, I painted the lower rim of the hitch pin so that I could see it better when checking to see that I was hitched correctly.
