Towing a Trailer and Bike trailer hitch attachment for 2 bikes

Expert Reply:

We have a ball mount bike rack, S64600, that goes over the ball mount and can carry up to 3 bikes. You may need to use an extended ball mount to mount this carrier if you do not have 3-1/8 inches of clearance between your hitch opening and the nearest point on the ball mount(see parts below). We also have a specialty ball mount, V75090, that allows a bike carrier to be mounted above the ball and carry bikes while towing. These items are all for 2 inch by 2 inch trailer hitches and you will need to stay within the hitch and vehicle tongue weight capacity. The tongue weight is calculated by adding the tongue weight of the trailer to anything mounted to the hitch (bikes and rack) and anything loaded in the vehicle behind the rear axle. You can find the weight capacities in your owners manual and on the hitch.
