Just right for Jeep Liberty
Joe from San Antonio, TX
I have a 2004 Jeep Liberty with the spare tire at the rear. This creates a big problem when trying to tow a trailer because the tire gets in the way.
This extension will give you the clearance needed to hitch a trailer without taking off the spare tire or making any other unusual adjustment. Also, it is not so long as to look weird or reduce your towing capacity unnecessarily.
It is well made and served me well. If you have a Jeep Liberty and want to tow a trailer you definitely need this product.
It seems to be pricier than warranted, but you will like it when you use it.

Very good extender

This is a great product. My only concern is the play in my receiver. I am purchasing a hitch pin stabilizer/lock to help. Now my bike rack will clear my RV spare tire. Happy trails...
