Paul, I use a similar tire lock. More like a Denver Boot. I have parked the trailer at some shady areas and with the wheel lock, along with the hitch cover, have had no trouble......hope I haven't jinxed myself? Paul www.severngaspumps.com

I like the idea that it also doubles as a chock... just have to remember to place it on the right downhill side.. smile

You cannot trust those locks I know a guy that had one and they just took the wheel off and put another one on it.


I am always looking for anything Texaco or Oklahoma oil and gas company's, also I am a newbie at seeking globes.

Locks only work to keep honest people from taking your property. Crooks just get slowed down a little.

Good to hear you're recovering your property.

Waiting on a sting to go down now. They said they will call. Looks like a fellow was duped into helping the real thieves and hopefully he'll be singing like a canary. Suppose to know where the trailer is from what I heard... so here it is my birthday and hopefully it will be one of the best in many years if that trailer and more stuff gets returned!

You need to use a locking lug nut in addition to the wheel lock. The key is to do enough things to make it take longer to steal the trailer and therefore deter a crook.
