What did you do to your Tremor today?

I got myself a new hitch pin lock. This one's special and accepts a full size kik cylinder. Yeah, I know it's overkill, but I'm a total lock nerd. I like this sort of stuff.

Looks great! How hard was it to add the pin?
Piece of cake...
1) Disconnect the harness
2) Gently work the cover off - I used an awl with an angled head and worked around the perimeter and it popped right off
3) Using a thin straight awl punch out the plastic "door" from the backside of pin 18
4) Insert the pin from the harness referencing the others for proper orientation
5) Reassemble and connect

I was worried about getting all the pins realigned when reinserting the plastic cover but it has long grooves that make it really simple.


From PTT video, this is the pin location:

Parked near another Tremor in the Tanger outlets in Sevierville, TN.

Mine is the white / stone gray in the back ground. Someone has a beautiful red Tremor!

You probably already know about the Lock Picking Lawyer on YouTube. Most of the locks he reviews (i.e. most of the locks on the market) are total crap, it's pretty eye opening. Anyway, this one got a very positive review from him, if I had a $1000 hitch this lock would be on my list.

Yup. I've been following his channel since he had around 10k subscribers. He has exploded in popularity these past few years.

I've gotten a few Paclock locks, this hitch pin lock being the latest. They make some pretty solid products. If you want the kik cylinder version, it was pretty cheap at $80-some shipped. You need to call them up and order over the phone, though. It's not on their website yet, assuming it ever will be.
