    I found these online and they look pretty good. http://durasafelocks.com/shop/traile...-trailer-lock/

    I've purchased this lock from Durasafe a number of years ago. It works just fine on my 2007 619 Fisherman trailer.

    Hmmm....Interested in the Durasafe Lock shown above but the link shows sold out....has anyone actually tried this particular one? My trailer is 2012....I think its 5/8" pin but I'll check prior to ordering. Maybe just spray some lube in the lock occasionally to keep from rusting out. I found this one on Amazon:

    I sent Durasafe an e-mail to ask when they would become available. Will share once I get an answer.

    That is the same lock that Ranger used to have.

    After having problems with three, I went to a pin (similar to the one Ranger Rodney posted) & padlock.

    FYI the SS trailer tongue locks are now available on the Durasafe site.

    For those guys that just run the T style pin - what kind of keyed lock have you put underneath? One with a small enough bar to fit through the hole and a short length so it doesn't hang down - and a rubber pad is what I would be looking for to protect the bottom of the lock from road grime.

    Any pictures or suggestions are appreciated.

    I'm not sure the exact lock #. It is a standard size/model from Master. I needed to enlarge the pin hole just slightly.

    Under the Additional Information provided on the Durasafe website says it is 4.75 in. but the description says it can work on lengths up to 6-5/16" which should fit my Z20. The Trimax (Amazon) looks just like the one Ranger issued for the 2005 to 2009 boats, but discontinued them and now going with the ones Rodney posted. I don't think the new Ranger pins are stainless steel. Has anyone has verified that it fits over 6"? I will try to find out.

    Just saw this picture of the tongue lock on Durasafe's website. Interested to find out what type of lock this is for sure.

    Thanks Sugelle, that pin on Amazon is what I need for my 2014. The 2007 had it, and I missed having a lockable pin.

    That link doesn't work now and I don't see that locking bar on their website. The smooth usable length needed on my 2011 Z519 Ranger swing away tongue needs to be 6-1/4" (6.25").

    I've got the Trimax TH6 on my '04 185VX. It works great. You can get them from Amazon for about $18. Just an option.

    Mn bowhunter’ is that used on the swing arm on your trailer and
    if so, do you have problems with it rusting to the point you can’t get the lock off?
    Mine is and not sure what to do other than sawing it off.

    Sad that you have to worry about someone stealing something so petty. Sign of the times I guess.
