Ask the Experts about this Highland Hitch Cargo Carrier
- Does the Ramp on the Gear Cage Scooter Carrier Fold Into the Carrier for Storage
- We have one of these set up in our show room. It will not fold down into the carrier for storage. The hinge design will only allow it to move up to about 90 degrees straight up. I have included a link to a video of this carrier being demonstrated.
We do have a scooter carrier that has a ramp that will fold into itself. The Rage 28x48 carrier, part # SC500. The dimensions are a bit smaller than the GearCage, but it may work. I have included a video on the Rage carrier that shows how it is used

- Towing a 4-Wheeler and a Boat with a Motor Home
- The reason the setup you are suggesting will not work is that the tongue weight will ultimately be far to great at the hitch on the motor home. The extension holding the cargo carrier and, ultimately the Boat, is not made to support the weight of further attachments. Safety becomes a huge consideration.

- Are Lights Required for Use on Cargo Carrier 5801600
- Generally speaking laws in your state may vary the carriers do not require lights unless the vehicle tail lights are blocked by the carrier or the gear on them. As the carrier can stick out as much as a few feet from the rear of the vehicle, I recommend using the lights to provide more visibility for other drivers. We offer a light kit, part number 6504, which would work great on the Moover Transporter System that you mention. We also offer reflective tape, part # RE418T, which could be affixed

- Will Ramp on Moover Transporter Cargo Carrier, Part # 5801600 Fold Down Flat Against Carrier Deck
- The ramp on the Moover Transporter Cargo Carrier with Side Rails and Ramp, part # 5801600 would sit up at an approximate 90 degree angle as shown in the product description photo. The hinges will not allow it to be folded back flat onto the floor of the carrier. The ramp on the Trailer Hitch Mounted Mobility Scooter Carrier with Fold Down Ramp, part # MSCR will collapse flat against the floor of the carrier for storage. This carrier might be a better choice for you, although it is a bit smaller

- Hitch Mounted Cargo Carrier with Ramp that Will Clear the Spare Tire on a 2010 FJ Cruiser
- Thank you for the extensive measurements you have provided. That will help out a lot in determining cargo carrier fit. Based on the measurements, we do have a few cargo carriers that will fit, but the The Moover Transporter System, # 5801600, will not fit. The problem is that the spare tire will make contact with the cargo carrier rails, and the ramp may not be able to shut properly.
Instead, I recommend a carrier that will extend out beyond the spare tire so the tire is not an issue. Take a

- What is the Best Way to Transport My 34 inch Wide Snow Blower
- The 48x32 Moover Transporter System for 2 inch Hitches, part # 5801600, that you referenced is the widest cargo carrier we have at this point, and it only has a width of 32 inches. It sounds like a small trailer would be your best bet for hauling your 34 inch wide snow blower.
I would recommend you use Retractable Ratchet Straps with Push Button Release, 2 inch x 6 foot, 4K (Qty 2), part # 34414, for securing your snow blower to a trailer. I attached a review video below for you to check out

- This 48x32 Cargo Carrier with Side Rails and Ramp, part # 5801600, is designed to be used on vehicles that have trailer hitches with 2 inch openings. If you have a hitch with a 2 inch opening, this cargo carrier would work well for you.
The weight capacity of this carrier is 300 lbs. You should also check the owners manual of your 1993 Dodge Dakota so you will know how much weight you can safely carry. You should always go with the lowest towing capacity of all of the components in your towi

- Recommended Mobility Scooter Carrier to Carry Jazzy 614 Power Chair on 2009 Chevy Traverse
- The Highland Moover Transporter Cargo Carrier you referenced, part # 5801600 would be a great choice to carry your power chair. It looks like the width would not be an issue. You will want to make sure that the power chair is no longer than 48 inches.
The only thing that might prevent you from using this particular carrier is the amount of clearance between the carrier and the rear bumper of your Traverse. An aftermarket receiver hitch for that model year Traverse will typically have 6-1/2 i

- Can a Toro Pro Max Snow Blower be Transported on a Moover Transporter Cargo Carrier
- The Moover Transporter hitch mounted cargo carrier, # 5801600, would be capable of carrying a 250 pound snow blower, as long as you make sure to stay below the 300 lb capacity of the carrier.
You will also need to make sure that the tongue weight capacity of your hitch and vehicle frame are at least 320 lbs or greater, weight of carrier and snow blower combined, before using this carrier on your vehicle.
If you load the snow blower in reverse, you will need to be cautious that you do not s

- Can the Highland Trailer Hitch Mount Cargo Carrier with Ramp Carry a Chest Freezer
- The Highland cargo carrier with ramp, # 5801600, has a carrying area that measures 48 x 32 inches. Anything that is within that space can be placed on the carrier provided that it is within the weight carrying capacity of the carrier (up 300 pounds), the hitch, and the vehicle, whichever is lowest.
Also, a freezer can be tall so you will need to make sure that it is secured to the carrier as best as possible. I recommend the use of ratchet straps, like # 34414.

- Cargo Carrier Recommendation for Carrying a Golf Cart and Scooter
- Yes, we do have one cargo carrier that is capable of transporting a golf cart and/or scooter behind a motor home. Carrying both at the same time will depend on the weight of the golf cart and scooter and the size of each. You will need to be sure to stay within the recommended weight capacity of the carrier and vehicle that will be carrying them.

- Can One Person Install Highland Moover Cargo Carrier # 5801600
- The Highland Moover Cargo Carrier you mentioned, part # 5801600 weighs a bit more than 70 lbs. A fairly burly person who ate their Wheaties that morning might be able to install the carrier by themselves, but most folks would need an assistant in order to install the carrier into the receiver on their vehicle.
Using an anti-rattle hitch pin, part # SR25219 is recommended.

- Replacement Side Lens for Draw-Tite Cargo Carrier Light Kit # 6504
- The only light kit for a hitch mount cargo carrier that we have which also has side lenses is # 6504. The replacement side lens is # 2423287. If you have a different set of lights let me know what they are and I can determine if there are replacement lenses. There should be some model number information on the light housing somewhere.
If there is no model information you will need to measure the light and/or lenses and I can try to determine the correct one based on the measurements.
