Thumbs up Weigh Safe Lock Cover

I know that some Weigh Safe hitch guys said one thing they didn't like was the lack of a cover for the key hole in the lock plate. Weigh Safe just came out with a rubber cover for that. I received mine today. Nice tight fit and eliminates the ability of debris to get into the keyhole. Cheap too at around $5. Anyways, I mentioned this in my Weigh Safe coupon code thread but thought I'd post a thread on it as guys who already have their hitch probably wouldn't click on that thread.

Here's a link to the cover: Weigh Safe Dust Lock Cover : Trunk Monkey Parts | Your source for OEM and Aftermarket Accessories

The FTEWEIGH discount code will not work on accessories but for anyone still looking for a hitch, Trunk Monkey has treated a lot of us right with 10% off and free shipping.

Many Thanks

I was working on my hitch set up yesterday and was thinking about Gorilla Tape for a cover and lo and behold - you come through again. Sure appreciate this. Just ordered one from the guys in Oregon.

Perfect, the one time I used the hitch so far I was wondering if I was going to be able to get the key in there with all the slush..

I have a hitch pin with a similar key lock. It has been attached for over 5+ years and through all sorts of elements. As I needed to remove it before I traded it off for my new SD, I just shot WD-40 in the lock and it came right off. No issues. The lock was quite corroded and covered with gunk of the elements.

When I got my hitch I greased the pins and lock mechanism (not the key hole) ....I live in a salty environment on the coast....figured it could not hurt...thanks for the heads up on the cover Karl4cat
