Best Way to Reduce Rattle and Wobble of Bike Rack in 2 Inch Trailer Hitch
Products Featured in This Question
Question:
I have a 2019 Tahoe with factory hitch and Yakima Ridgeback 4 that has way to much wobble for my comfort. Which products would you recommend for fixing? Thanks!

Expert Reply:
The best way to reduce the rattle and wobble that you are understandably trying to get rid of is with an accessory anti-rattle clamp, the etrailer Anti-Rattle Hitch Stabilizer for 2" Hitches # e99007.
To use it, just clamp the U-bolt around the rack's shank and put the stabilizer plate over the hitch receiver; this will tighten up the connection and help stop the wobble you mentioned.
I have added a link below to a video review for you to check out as well of the etrailer Anti-Rattle Hitch Stabilizer for 2" Hitches # e99007.
