📘 Overview
The Hide-a-Hitch stows the trailer hitch underneath the vehicle bumper, fastened with the hitch pin already fitted to the truck, so the ball mount is out of sight and attached to the vehicle rather than sitting loose in the bed or left in the receiver where it can be pulled. It solves a small, persistent problem: a ball mount is expensive enough to be worth taking, awkward enough to be a nuisance in the bed, and forgettable enough to be left behind. Note that Equipment Lock has discontinued the Hide-a-Hitch — what is listed here is remaining stock, and there will be no replacement from the manufacturer.
⚙ Key Features of the Hide-a-Hitch
- Uses the existing hitch pin — no separate fastener to buy or lose, and nothing new to fit to the truck.
- Stows beneath the bumper — the hitch is held under the vehicle rather than protruding, which is what takes it out of view.
- Keeps the ball mount with the vehicle — the hitch travels with the truck instead of being left in the yard or rolling loose in the bed.
- Reduces the exposed profile — a receiver with nothing showing does not advertise that there is towing gear to take.
🔑 Why Stow the Hitch Rather Than Leave It
- A hitch left in the receiver is the easiest thing on the truck to steal — stowing it out of sight removes the prompt as well as the access.
- A hitch in the bed damages the bed — a loose steel ball mount slides on every corner, and the marks it leaves are permanent.
- It is where you need it — the ball mount stays on the vehicle, so towing day does not start with a search of the yard.
- No new hardware — it fastens with the hitch pin already on the truck, so there is nothing else to specify.

❓ Hide-a-Hitch Questions, Answered
Is the Hide-a-Hitch still made?
No. Equipment Lock has discontinued the Hide-a-Hitch and no longer publishes a product page for it. What is listed here is remaining stock.
How does the Hide-a-Hitch attach to the vehicle?
The Hide-a-Hitch secures the trailer hitch beneath the bumper using the hitch pin already fitted to the vehicle, so no additional fastener is required.
What problem does the Hide-a-Hitch solve?
It keeps the ball mount attached to the truck and out of sight when not towing, rather than left in the receiver where it can be pulled out or loose in the bed where it slides around.
Are dimensions published for the Hide-a-Hitch?
No. Because the product has been withdrawn, Equipment Lock no longer publishes a specification, and nothing has been estimated here in its place.
What should I buy instead if the Hide-a-Hitch is out of stock?
For securing a ball mount that stays in the receiver, the Hitch Pin Lock replaces the ordinary pin with a locking one on Class III and IV hitches. For securing a parked trailer coupler, the Ball and Ring Hitch Lock is the product that applies.
