FAQ

Q. What do I do if the head of my receiver locking pin is stuck on or the key won’t turn?
A. Use a penetrating oil (or penetrating fluid).  Apply it generously in the space between the head and the shaft of the pin as well as into the locking mechanism itself.  Let it sit for 5 minutes tap the head with the wooden handle of a hammer and re-apply penetrating oil and let sit for another 5 minutes.  This should solve the problem.

A. If it is a manufacturer’s defect we will replace it: call us for a Return Authorization number. If you need replacement or extra keys you can order them right here from the website. (Some exceptions to certain key numbers apply)
