Coupler Lock Part 03133

mally24

Hey everyone -

I just purchased a 2006 T@B and, within a week, lost the coupler lock pin. 

I know that it’s an AL-KO Coupler Type AK26, and I know the T@B part is Part #03133. Could someone point me in the direction of where I can purchase a replacement? 

I’ve attached an image of one of the handouts in my owner materials for reference. 

Thanks so much!

Hi Mally24! We just purchased a 2005 T@B and also need a coupler lock. Did you end up getting one? Cheers, Jo

Is the coupler on a 2006 TAB different from the current TABs?  I have a 2019 TAB400 and use a padlock on the coupler.  From the picture above it doesn't appear that this is a solution for earlier TABs though.

@falcon1970, the coupler lock on the current TaBs is different from the early DM Tabs.  The DM TaBs have a lock on the side of the coupler as shown above in previous post.  The replacement lock cylinder is also shown above, which fixes a trailer with a missing lock unit.  

You can also use the universal locks that have a ball which goes into the coupler and locks over the lifting coupler release, as shown in your photo above.  But this type of lock only works when parking the trailer.  For towing you need the locking pin setup, which latches the lifting bar, to reduce a chance of uncoupling.
Cheers
