RHINO USA - SHACKLE & LOCK DOES NOT FIT BRONCO OEM HITCH

[Jonny way]

I bought the Rhino Shackle Hitch Reciever and Pin Lock from their website. It stated it was compatible with the Bronco but the Lock does not fit with the OEM hitch as you cannot access the lock to insert key. I have attached a picture to show the issue. The sad thing is I called Rhino to say you should show on your website that the lock, which you sell with the shackle doesn't fit they told me I had to pay return shipping cost as they didn't care. I won't be buying from them again. I wanted to write this review for anyone looking to buy this with the OEM-factory hitch. You would need to buy a different lock. See the picture attached. As you can see key cannot be inserted from this position.

What they said. I have the Bolt hitch pin and I put the key lock on the other side.

No. The shaft length prohibits it from other side.

Oh man. Discretion is the better part.....

I initially thought the same thing with my Bolt pin but there is an angle at which it will go in from the other side

I watched Rhino's video, they were using an aftermarket hitch.

On a side note, I had a locking pin once and after a couple winters it had to be removed with a torch.

Yeah. It looks like we can get it working at a difficult angle from behind the plug. Not easy but I think Ill just get a lock that keys from the front instead of side.
