Review of the Rola GearSpace 34 Slide-Out Enclosed Cargo Carrier


Today we are going to show you part number 59106 what we have is a Rola GearSpace 34 twin tube slide out enclosed cargo carrier. This cargo carrier is for 2 inch receiver hitches. This cargo carrier is the largest one out there. It contains 34 cubic feet of storage capacity. This is a great all in one for storing and transporting all your gear including large items like bikes. It is aerodynamic, attractive, secure, and has a water tight design. Which means more cargo capacity than any other hitch based cargo carrier. Also the twin tube telescoping platform works with any 2 by 2 inch trailer hitch. Also provides an adjustable clearance up to 31 inches. From the hitch pin hole to the cargo box itself.

Covering a few features of the cargo carrier is it actually slides out due to the twin tube telescoping design so you can get easy access to the back of your SUV. The gray case is designed with a clam shell style opening lid. It includes the locks to secure gear inside the carrier. It also has a hard point channel cross bar to provide weight distribution and as well as a adjustable attachment point for a cargo carrier itself. This carrier does include 2 rattle reducing silent hitch pins. One for the hitch itself and one for the telescoping part. This also comes with LED lighting system which includes a 2 stop, turn, tail lights, license plate light and mounting bracket. This cargo carrier can support up to 2 bikes upright with the lid closed using the optional bike mounting kit. That part number is 59409 this unit does come with a 5 year warranty.

We will go ahead and cover a few of the specs of this. The weight of the entire cargo carrier is 120 pounds. The dimensions are as follows the inside is 63 length and 28 inches wide. It is around 40 inches tall as well. Overall it is around 68 inches long, 33 inches wide, and about 40 inches tall. The install clearance measures 10 inches long to the center of the hitch pin hole to the closest edge of the carrier. Then the adjustable slide out design can extend the carrier an additional 21 inches from the vehicle itself.

We will go ahead and demonstrate some of the features of this cargo carrier. First off, and most obvious is the clam shell design, we will show you how it opens up. It has a nice secure strap system, there is one on each side, To open it up, just grab it by the handle and pull. As you can see this has a volumous capacity of 34 cubic feet. It also has a handy drain plug so that if you need to hose it out you can open it up and let it drain out of the bottom. Since this cargo carrier is rather large, it will cover up the tail lights on most vehicles. That is why it comes with the tail lights already built into the back. Again, you have the running lights, left and right turn signal, brake, and a license plate bracket that is lighted. The wiring for the lights plugs into the vehicle via a four pole flat connector. We will go ahead and demonstrate the telescoping feature of this. You pull this pin, undo the anti-rattle pin back here, and pull it out. There is a safety cable underneath to prevent it from going too far back. With it being telescoped out you can then have easy access to the back of your SUV. Again, here is the safety cable that keeps it from coming all the way off. Also, the shank on this cargo carrier has 2 sets of holes for adustability and to meet the requirements of your bumper and tailgate combination. There you have it for part number 59106 a review of the Rola GearSpace 34.

Satisfaction Guarantee
Very impressed with the service, delivery was on time, price was great, and best of all I received the right hitch. I was very very skeptical that I would receive the correct hitch for our new 05 Honda Pilot, not only was it the right hitch, took all of fifteen minutes to install it. Already thinking of my next purchase
