anybody recomend a good wheel lock or trailer tongue cover/lock. I'm looking online but nothing looks that special in the photos. Should i just do the huge chain through the rim and around the leaf springs?

Master makes on that locks the ball socket, not easy to install/uninstall, but thats the whole idea!!:D

The copper colored Masterlock device is one of the best on the market. The name of the company escapes me know, but an Ontario,Ca, company makes a wheel lock device, it is orange in color. Looks lake a "Denver Boot".
I use that on the jet ski trailer, and the larger masterlock on the boat trailer. Chains are a joke and a padlock, no matter how large or strong are also useless.
Let me add in here, ALWAYS lock the trailer, even if it is a storage garage!

The tire locks are great on a single axle trailer, but a tandem only requires the locked axle to be jacked up and viola..trailer gone!!
