Equalizer hitch. where do you store when not in use?

At home stinger and bars in the storage compartment. Camping, the bars in the storage compartment and hitch on an old piece of carpet under the trailer. Never leave the stinger in the receiver, or in the trailer coupler. My shins have thanked me e er since I stopped.

Everyone in the campground has a key to my storage compartment, so look at it only for convenience, not security.
