Ditto.
They will steal anything that is not locked up. Several hundred pounds of scrap metal in one run through a camp ground as well as unsecured generators and bicycles AND THEY WILL NOT BE GETTING MINE.

Grease on the bar ends is the solution to grinding noise on EAZ Lift bars. It is a pain to wipe them clean every time you remove them so the plastic bin keeps all my greasy stuff.

Wife used old pair of my Levis and cut legs off and sewed one end of each leg shut! Then sewed the rear pockets to make 2 bags! Now we place the Bags over the Trunnion end of bars then place each of the bars in separate Leg bags! Now place Both bars in a Padded Shotgun Case! Done deal! Youroo!!

Have the Blue Ox system, no exposed grease on bars, cover the ball with a rubber cap. Store all in back of truck and lock cover. Out of sight type thing. Imho not much scrap value in a fairly pricey set of bars and receiver head. Locks! Keep honest folks honest sometimes! LOL.

My bars are greasy too. Usually I slip a plastic bag over the greasy end and either store them laying across the batteries as mentioned before, or put them back in the heavy cardboard box they came in inside the basement. I usually leave the trunion on the truck; it's got a lock on it.

Go online or to a tackle shop and ask for rod storage tubes. Grease stays in,,,

I put mine in the front storage compartment with the hitch itself when the TT is parked.

We have the skinny front pass-thru storage (doors are 18" tall x 8" wide). My bars, pins, etc all go the driver's side when not in use (as well as my small tub of items for the dump station). The WD head goes inside the main entry door (on some lumber) when in storage. While camping, I just leave the head unit in the receiver.
