That pin will save ya some headaches! That up and down bouncing motion on 90 can force the hitch to pop open. Great point Bob.

You can pin the latch or pad lock it all day but if it isn't latched around the ball she is bouncing off. Look at my tailgate it is a prime example. My buddy did it on the 4th day I had my truck. Latched it up sitting on top of the ball, went to load the 4 wheeler, bam the trailer shot up into my tailgate.

I did that also. Yes I have a T-top. going slow & safety chains held. Texting while latching?
