the receiver can be locked into the hitch with a standard hitch lock via the hitch pin hole ... was that the question?

Just put the locking pin in the empty hole?

Tighten it really tight and nobody will steal it.

There could be, but Ive never seen one. If you get it really tight like 05kjrenny said, they wouldnt be able to steel it without a pair of channel locks..

Get one of those really really BIG philips screw drivers, that are like 20" long, rotate the shackle against the hitch, put the point of the screw driver in the shackle bolt hole and tight the crap out of it. I did that well over a year ago and it is still there, in the frint hitch, even after going through a Passat rear bumper :twisted:
