Yeah, I can probably use pliers to hand-tighten it. That's what I did for another bolt that requires a 17mm wrench. (Why the manufacturer decided to mix US and metric sizes for their 2 bolts is beyond my comprehension.

Great - I just got the same rack at PB - can't beat it for $140
.
I was thinking about getting a hitch lock, but even if you lock it at the hitch, someone can remove two 17 mm bolts holding the hitch bar to the rack. Is there a solution for that?
