Trailer Hitch Mount Cargo Carrier that Can Fold to Carry a Lawn Mower on a 2013 Toyota RAV4
First, if I can address the lawn mower, it would be a tight fit. There are other carriers that might be a better option as far as fitting the lawn mower and ease of loading. For the fit when folded you will need to look at the distance from the center of your hitch pin hole straight back to the distance required to clear the rear of the vehicle. When folded the carrier is 3 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole so your measurement would have to be less than that for it to fit. You migh

Where Can Straps be Hooked to on the Rola Dart Trailer Hitch Mount Cargo Carrier
The holes at the rear of the Rola Dart Cargo Carrier # 59550 are there to install lights, # 20174 or # 59516.

How to Carry a Motorcycle and 2 Bikes on a 2007 Ford F-150 SuperCrew Cab
I have a solution to carry your 2 bikes as well as your motorcycle. The Rage Powersport Motorcycle Carrier, # SMC600, will carry your motorocycle, however, it does not have an additional hitch on the back of the carrier to attach an additional hitch mounted bike rack. In order to carry the two bikes as well as your motorcycle, a roof mounted rack is the only alternative. For the roof of your 2007 Ford F-150 SuperCrew, I recommend the Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Roof Rack with Aero Crossbars. The c

Trailer Hitch Mount Cargo Carrier with a Rise in the Shank for a 2012 Toyota Van
Some cargo carriers do have a rise in the shank such as # 63153. It has a rise of 2-1/2 inches. Curt cargo carrier # C18130 has a rise of 3 inches and would be a good option for you. You could also use a multi-purpose ball mount, # D210. When using the receiver portion it will raise the accessory nearly 4 inches from the top of the hitch receiver opening to the bottom of the receiver on the ball mount. The receiver capacity on D210 is 350 pounds so you have to stay within its capacity. I have

Differences Between the Blue Ox Motorcycle Carrier I and SportLift III for Motor Homes
The Blue Ox Motorcycle Carrier I, # SC2000, and the SportLift III, # SC4200, are similar carriers when it comes to weight and towing capacity, however, what sets them apart are their features. The Carrier I is more of a traditional style motorcycle carrier that uses a ramp to load the motorcycle onto the carrier. The SportLift III has a winch that lowers the platform to the ground to make it easier for you to load your motorcycle. This carrier was designed more for large, full dress bikes th

There are not many differences between the Curt Cargo Carrier, # C18132, and the Surco Cargo Carrier, # 52018F. Both cargo carriers have similar designs including the folding shank, steel mesh platform and raised sides. They also have the same weight capacity and dimensions.

Trailer Hitch Mount Cargo Carrier for Use with a 1998 Winnebago Rialta Motor Home
For a motorcycle carrier for use behind a motor home you can use # UF48-979033. It does not fold or have a raised shank but it is the only one of this type of carrier that you can use behind a motor home. Folding items are not recommended behind RVs and trailers because of the extra movement at the back, like being at the back of a school bus. The places where carriers fold is a possible point of weakness and the extra bouncing at the back of an RV could cause a folding carrier to fail. For a

Trailer Hitch and Cargo Carrier Recommendation for a 2010 Toyota Prius
We do have some cargo carrier options for your 2010 Toyota Prius, however, the Rola Enclosed Cargo Carrier. # 59110, will not fit on your Prius.

Can Hitch Mounted Bike Racks be Added to Hitch Mounted Cargo Carriers to Carry Bikes and Cargo Items
We do have some options that will allow you to carry cargo and bikes on your 2012 Toyota Highlander, however, bike racks should not be mounted to a hitch mounted cargo carrier. The opening that you see on this cargo carrier is simply a hollow tube, not a receiver. Adding a bike rack to a hitch mounted cargo carrier would place too much weight too far back from the trailer hitch. This will create additional stress that the trailer hitch and your vehicle frame cannot support. It is similar to

Carrying a Vespa Scooter with a 2007 Subaru Outback Wagon with Class II Trailer Hitch

If your 2007 Subaru Outback has a Class II trailer hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver there are some other options. If the wheel base on the Vespa is less than 48 inches, you could use carrier # RHWC1114. But you have to make sure that the Ves

Weight Capacity Rating for Rage Scooter Carrier, Part # AMC400
The Rage Motorcycle Carrier, part # AMC400, can itself carry up to 400 pounds. The carriers 40-lb weight does not count toward that limit. However, the 400-lb maximum load plus the 40-lb weight of the carrier itself mean that the maximum total 440-lb load requires a 2-inch hitch receiver with a tongue weight rating of at least 500 pounds. You will first want to confirm the capacity of your hitch; this will be indicated on the safety/warning sticker. You cannot exceed the tongue weight rating

What Carrier Would Be Used for a Dirt Bike on the Front of a Truck
In determining whether or not a rack on the front of your Ford F250 truck to carry a dirt bike will work, you have a lot of variables to consider.

Raising Rola Trailer Hitch Mount Cargo Carrier 59052 Up a Few Inches on a 2010 Nissan Xterra
The Rola trailer hitch mount cargo carrier, # 59502, has a rise in the shank already that raises the platform up 2 inches. The Nissan Xterra is a tall enough vehicle to where you most likely would not need any additional rise. But if you did you would need to use something like # MT70066 to raise it up a few more inches.

The good news is that with your exhaust pipes being 15 inches from the carrier, the chance of exhaust heat or fume damage to your luggage is slim.

It is likely that you will be able to open the rear hatch on your 2011 Toyota Highlander with the Rola cargo box # 59110 tilted down. However, we have not tested them together so I cannot say for sure. What I recommend to give you nearly complete access to the rear of the vehicle is the swing away version of this carrier, # 59109. Opening the rear hatch will not be a problem with the swinging carrier installed. It swings off to the side so you can not only open the rear hatch but actually sta

Trailer Hitch Mount Cargo Carrier to Carry a 2003 Yamaha Vino Scooter
On scooters like the Yamaha Vino, the rear brake is close to the ground because of the small tires on the scooter.

Which Carrier for 250-lb Motorcycle on 2012 GMC Savanna 1500 with 400-lb Tongue Weight Hitch

For instance, if the receiver opening is 2 x 2 inches, it would be a Class III with a capacity of between 3500 lbs and 6000 towing and 300-600 lbs tongue weight.

Recommended Carrier to Transport Scooter on Rear of 2000 Winnebago Rialta
The majority of the lower cost motorcycle carriers we offer are not intended for use on the rear of a motorhome or RV. On a typical RV, there is a greater distance between the rear axle and the rear bumper than what you would see on a regular passenger vehicle.

If your bumper has a hitch then you need to consult the owners manual or trailer manufacturer to determine if it is rated for the combined weight of the carrier (about 50 pounds) and your bike. If you need to install a trailer hitch I recommend a frame mounted hitch, see link. Frame mounts are much safer and overall a better choice for this application.

On trailer hitches that we have installed on the same generation Lexus GX470 as yours, there would be clearance to fold up the Curt cargo carrier, # C18100. How you will be able to tell is to measure from the center of the hitch pin hole on your hitch straight back to the distance required to clear the rear bumper on the vehicle. If that measurement is less than 5 inches then it can be folded without touching the vehicle. I have included a link to a video review of this carrier for you.

Carrying a 400 Pound Power Chair Behind a Class A 40 Foot Motor Home
I will be happy to help you determine the best option for carrying your power chair on the motor home. First, since the weight of the chair is 400 pounds, you are going to want a carrier that has a higher capacity than # PS10401-10402.
