MAKE YOUR OWN - This part is a total waste of money. I went to REI to pick-up this lock, when I asked the salesman the price he told me $50! I asked him why I could not simply use a small piece of chain to connect the rack to the trailer hitch. He told me I would be better off doing that and said just last weekend they had broken one off for a customer, with a single whack with a hammer (on the lock side which is thin evidently).

I picked up a small length of strong chain for $2.09 at the hardware store, put it through an old bike inner tube so it would not clang against the hitch and used two old padlocks to lock the chain ends to the rack and the trailer hitch (which is bolted and spot welded onto the car). So please, don't waste your money on the Thule STL2 Snug-Tite Lock II, MAKE YOUR OWN!

First, the lock fits very loosely on the hitch"pin" (screw), so the unit adds noting to the stability. But, the real issue is though this lock will impede the removel of the hitch pin, security is an illusion. The upright assembly is held to the hitch with two standard bolts (nuts). So, with the lock, instead of removing one bolt (the hitch pin), you have to loosen two nuts and remove two bolts. You've really gained almost zero added security.

I ordered this lock but received the other version; the one that goes through and locks on the other side. The one I received works, but is not as secure as this version. I was very disappointed, because I could have purchased the version that was sent to me locally, but ordered this one because I believe it is more secure. On the version I was sent, the lock fastens on the end of the bolt on the other side of the receiver. Problem is there is a small portion of the bolt exposed, and a thief could gain access with a cutting tool. This one (which I did not receive) is much more secure, in that no part of the bolt is exposed. I had to use the version I was sent anyway, because I was going on a trip and couldn't wait for an exchange. Amazon did not even acknowledge that they made the substitution, so it makes me leery of ordering anything else from them if I'm in a time crunch.

After purchasing an expensive Thule bike rack, I found that in order to get a more secure bolt for the receiver was to purchase this lock. The rack can be taken apart and stolen at other points on the rack, but this lock bolt designed for the receiver does seem like it would provide a more stable and secure fit and lock rather than the supplied bolt.
I purchased this lock through Amazon (warehouse deals) BE CAREFUL when buying from this place. They must not have any quality control there. When I received the lock it only came in a plastic package that contained a wrench and a plastic "Thule" connector - IT WAS MISSING THE BOLT, WASHERS AND CYLINDER LOCK AND KEY. How in the world could you send someone something with not even half the parts. We were leaving for vacation and really needed the lock but had to leave without it because of the poor quality control from Warehouse deals.
Thankfully we have had no problems with just using the supplied bolt that came with the rack. When I contacted Amazon about the problem they made me pay for the return shipping.....so I am out $5 and still NO LOCK!!!

Thule should redesign this product or offer alternatives. This product is rather expensive for what it is.

I purchased one for my rack and lost it on my second outing. My problem is that the lock can't be locked without the key. I kept the bike lock keys in the glove compartment. I mounted the hitch converter (to 2") and locked it on. I then put the rack on and tightened the pin with the supplied wrench but I forgot to grab the keys for the Thule lock. So I set the lock in place loaded the bikes and I forgot to get the key to lock it. So I lost it in the road. My mistake but the product design could be better to help prevent this.

If I buy another one I'll put the lock in my pocket if I don't have the key but a lock that will snap on without the key would have saved me from myself or a wire attached to a washer and the lock cylinder so that it would hang down but can't fall off if it's not locked would have also helped me.

I would suggest that Thule should offer a combination lock version. Thus you are never without the key.

I had to reluctantly replace my old Sportworks rack (moved and had no room to transport it)and found that the simple hitch pin/theft deterrent system Sportworks used has not been carried over by Thule. Instead Thule supplies a 12mm x 40mm short threaded bolt. Then I discovered that Thule wants $50 for a hitch pin bolt w/a cheesy looking yuppie lock "system".
Sporkworks utilized a simple and practical partially threaded hex head bolt w/a hole on opposite end for attaching a small padlock or cotter pin, simple easy, no rattle w/lock washer and impossible for the pin to completely back off.
So I purchased a 12mm dia x 80mm long partially threaded bolt $2.25 that would extend thru the receiver, drilled a hole (you'll want a drill press) that would accommodate a small padlock $1.50 and presto I had an IMO a secure, rattle free "locking hitch pin". The benefit is the bolt extends thru the receiver so the lock is on the opposite side in the event the bolt unthreads it will not come out due to the pad lock and you will not loose your rack & bikes on the road.
I am disappointed that Thule did not provide this type of simple bolt set up like Sportworks did as original equipment. The Snug-Tite one key could have remained an option for those who care about such things but a $400.00 rack should come w/a a basic securing system that has a lock & loss prevention capability. Thinking about it I've never seen a hitch pin that did not extend thru the receiver so a cotter pin could not be used to prevent pin loss.
If I had to do it over I'd buy a KUAT brand Sherpa or better the NV, they come complete w/integrated hitch & bike locks for the same price, the NV has a built in repair stand. Anybody want to buy my once used Thule T-2?
