Was putting the boat/trailer away for the winter when I noticed the pin in the coupler was missing a clip? The first picture shows one side of the pin with the clip, the second picture shows the other side of the pin without the clip and the third picture shows the pin removed from the coupler just for reference.

I had not noticed this pin before so not sure if there is something else missing besides the clip? Not sure how/where I lost the clip so hoping I can go to parts store to get it replaced?

Am I correct in my assumptions I am only missing the one clip and nothing else? Where is best place to get replacement clip?

TIA

It's a common external snap ring. Lowe's/Home Depot/Ace. Or opt for a longer clevis pin and use a cotter pin.

It is also called a "circlip". Most hardware, auto and big box home stores carry these.
