A safety fastener for ball and socket hitches provides two laterally spaced vertical fastening collars structurally carried on each side of a vehicle hitch tongue forwardly of the hitch ball and defining a plurality of vertically spaced fastening pin holes extending diametrically therethrough. Each vertical fastening collar carries a vertical fastening post at least one of which defines a plurality of vertically spaced fastening pin slots therein for adjustable positioning in at least one fastening collar by a fastening pin in releasably extending therebetween. The fastening posts carry a horizontal beam extending therebetween, the horizontal beam having a rearwardly extending fastening protuberance over the socket beam carried on the ball. Fastening pins may be lockable to prevent unauthorized disconnection of the socket beam from the ball.
