Hitch Reducer 2" to 1-1/4" Trailer Hitch Receiver
This has worked great to reduce my 2" hitch so that I can continue to use my 1 1/4" Thule bike rack, and I like that it doesn't extend out much from the hitch. After my last trip though, the inset separated from the larger piece. I can still use it, but without the smaller piece fixed in place, I can't put it on the car first and then slide the bike rack into it since the smaller piece slides, and it's impossible to line the holes up. It's also rusted more than I expected. It wasn't inexpensive, and I was hoping it would last longer. I've used it for maybe a dozen trips.
Perfect fit BUT the inner tube broke away from the outer tube after about a dozen trips. One small weld on the outside corner is all that holds it on. The small amount of play must have been too much for it. I was even using an anti-rattle lock pin. Very disappointing due to the price point. And now it’s unsafe to use as it could slip right out of the receiver.

MaxxTow Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter - 2" to 1-1/4" Hitch - 11" Long
Installed my 2” hitch but don’t have a 2” bike trailer yet. I purchased this to continue to use my 1.25” bike trailer (until I find a deal). Used this over Thanksgiving weekend on I35 in Texas (tons of traffic)and I’m very pleased with the performance. I’m was secure and bikes traveled just fine.
I ordered this adapter from e-Trailer so I could extend my bike rack past my spare tire on my 2005 Honda CRV. This solved my problem and this thing is well made to take the weight. I'm glad I purchased from e-trailer because I know now that they sell quality products as I have also purchased a new receiver, ball mount and 2' ball to pull my trailer. If your goal is quality, great service and fast shipping then e-Trailer is one company to go with.

Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter, 2" or 4" Drop/Rise
Exactly what I needed. Now able to add storage box and still pull tow Dolly.
Etrailer’s customer is actually customer service. There’s real people who are there to help. Kate helped me get my order the next day after I realized I accidentally switched the billing and shipping addresses on the order form.

Hitch Adapter 2" to 1-1/4" Trailer Hitch Receiver - 7" Long
Fantastic Product. Saved me from having to buy a brand new bike holder for my new car with a different hitch size.
Professional, delivered a day early. As promised. What more can you want.

Hitch Adapter 1-1/4" to 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver
Very heavy duty. Will use it with a bike rack I had for another vehicle that had a 2" receiver.
Solidly made. Wish all of these would come with optional locking pins and clamps to minimize movement as I use mine primarily for a bike rack with very nice bikes aboard.

Curt Hitch Receiver Reducer Sleeve - 2-1/2" to 2"

Hitch Extender for 2" Trailer Hitches - 8" Long
Just received my 80307 Hitch Extender for 2" Trailer Hitches - 8" Long. My newly upsized spare tire had been preventing the use of my hitch rack. Was very pleased with the etrailer service and the ease of using the website. The excellent descriptions, photos, and even videos really help shopping for these types of specialty parts. Shipping went well and expediently. I trial fit the extension with my hitch rack today, and the photos are attached. It fit well and did the trick. I drove around and heard no rattles from it at all.
Prefect fit well

Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter, 2 " or 8" Drop/Rise
Perfect for my application.
Works great! I use it on my motorhome to carry my bikes with a Rocky Mounts Carrier and flat tow my car with my Blue Ox system. It places the bike carrier at an optimal height over the front of the car but my may be different for other bike carriers. Very sturdy and seems to be quality all around.

Curt Hitch Extender for 2" Trailer Hitches - 14" Long
The items I ordered will allow me to adapt my utility trailer for transporting my sea kayaks. Curt and Hopkins are both quality manufacturers. On a shipping note, the box arrived at the Post Office broken wide open. Your shipping folks need to wrap small, heavy, items in bubble wrap. Then stabilize it with foam peanuts. Just putting it in a box then stuffing the box with craft paper does not cut it. Items were not damaged so I am good to go.
This extender does a pretty good job of keeping my bike away from the rear radar system in my Venza so the backup warning system does not engage in error. Beware it’s pretty heavy.

Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter for Tow Bars - 2" Hitches - 2-1/4" Rise/Drop
Beefy. I have no doubts of the capacity of either side of this hitch adapter, there's plenty of weld to hold it all together. Very few options will provide minimal drop (for an off-road trailer) and minimal rise on the other side for an additional bike rack or cargo carrier. Jeeps are tough since you need to be able to open the gate. This one clears no problem. My spare is up on a slant back carrier, but I think the stock spare should clear as well. Get you a "Trimax THC200 Universal Anti-Rattle Clamp Fits 2" Hitch" and this thing is solid as stone.
The hitch has held up over Alaskan roads towing a jeep, but it does not sit level in the receiver so the tiny little bit that it sags is exaggerated when the tow bar is connected. Paint starting to peel with wear after a year.

Curt Extender for 2" Hitch Receivers -18" Long
I got this hitch extender to put on my camper so that I could mount my bike rack. It worked like a charm!! The bike rack and bike were super solid on the trip cross country!!
First off, I love Curt products. When I found this item at Etrailer at this low price I was shocked. I was prepared to receive a knock off. I tried my luck and was amazed the product not only showed up at my doorstep the next day but is a very high quality Curt product. My handyman was working on the house and he couldn’t believe the quality at that price. Thanks Etrailer! You are my new go to for my traveling needs.

Hitch Adapter 1-1/4" to 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver with 5" Rise
Thank you for the personal touch on the order. Not many company's do this. This is a good product and a good price. My car sits low and we needed to raise the carrier up. Looks like this will work out.
I bought this adapter so that I could mount a bike rack on the back of my 2012 Honda Civic. The adapter got the bikes high enough so that they wouldn't hit the pavement when backing out of my driveway and transitioning to the street. The product is definitely strong and well made. It was put to the test with a very heavy steel thule bike rack that was definitely heavier than all 4 of the bikes that were mounted on it. The fit was precise so it didn't hit my rear bumper as well.

Advantage SportsRack Hitch Extender for 2" Trailer Hitches - 11" Long
The "Hitch Extender" that I ordered works great. Everytime I go RVing in my Winnebago MH I utilize it. Jerry Barnes
The product arrived much faster than I expected. It seems to be well made and substantial and should do what I need. I need it to extend my Swagman rack further away from my car's bumper so I don't have to remove the peddle on my inside bike.

Malone 2" Dual Purpose Hitch Receiver
Used the Malone 2" Dual Purpose Hitch Receiver to have a bike rack with two bikes on the upper Receiver and a 21' bassboat on the lower Receiver. Ran down to Florida Everglades, Florida Keys and back home. Almost exactly 4,000 miles. Hitch worked perfectly. I did find that you can not "jacknife" the boat as much or the bow of the boat will touch the bikes on the rack but that is to be expected. Hitch was quiet, strong and exceeded my expectations. Easy to install and looking forward to using it again in a month for another 4,000 mile road trip. Note: I drive fast and the roads are not always perfect. This is a sturdy Hitch Receiver. Hope this review helps you. Sorry, crummy photo as the Receiver is a "set it and forget it" product. Be well.
I bought this Dual Purpose Receiver at Twice the price of that Big online company because of reviews from owners that bought on both sites. After evaluating the reviews, I chose to go with etrailer because I have come to trust them as a company that gives you a great product that they will stand behind and they appreciate your business. I haven’t used this receiver yet, but can look at it and I am comfortable that I made the right choice. I will follow up with another review after I use it.

Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter with 2" or 6" Drop/Rise
Worked out great for my family bike adventure. Traveled with that setup over 1000 miles and it was easy drive. I had cargo carrier on the bottom and bike rack on top, and with that setup and 4 people on board still plenty of ground clearance 11". Dual hitch is a solid piece of steel that can carry a lot of lbs. Just don't overload max. tong weight, need some room for safety!
This adapter design was exactly what I was looking for. I often carry 4 or more bikes with my Sylvan GO. The pictures show how I configured my setup. Its perfect!!! And yes, I have to be a little careful on really tight turns but its never been an issue. Thank you George and the etrailer team.

Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter, 2" or 10" Drop/Rise
Great product
I love the product not just for the obvious reasons such as it’s extremely durable and well made for safety but specifically for length of the arm. The arm length is just long enough to clear my hitch rack walls, which allowed me to plug in my bike rack. I would certainly recommend this product to others. I haven’t seen any marketing for this specific use case so have at it.
# 17
Hitch Extender For 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver 7"
Allows me to use my back rack and small boat trailer without having to remove the spare tire on my Jeep Wrangler. Works well.
I needed my bike to clear my bumper on a front hitch and this did the trick. This extender is hollow so I was able to use anti rattle/ lock before adding bike rack.

Hitch Box Extension and Reducer for Titan 2-1/2" Trailer Hitches, 24" - 34" Long
I had to remove burrs from the inside of the tube, both at the holes drilled (for hitch pin) and the end where the ball hitch goes in. The welded boss on the end of the tube had burs left over from the cutoff operation. The ball hitch would only slide in a couple of inches prior to deburring it. Also the packaging was not very good, see pictures. No damage to the product but I am surprised it even stayed in the box during the trip here, it was completely loose in the box and tore it apart during transport.
The product is good the packaging for shipping needs improvement. The box came ripped in half and only the tape on the bottom of the box was holding the box together. The plastic cap for the one end was broken and unusable. The other end had a dent in the metal that had to be filled down to be able to insert it into the receiver. The bracket for the plug extension to mount into the hitch extension was bent together so it had to be bent back straight. This was to be able to insert the plug and line up the 4 holes to be able to mount the receiver plug to the extension.

Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter - 2" (Class III) to 1-1/4" - 4" Long
The fact that it's steel is a plus, and it extends the hitch so that the bike rack that's attached now is far enough away from the hatch to not bang against it. Great product!
Ordered for our Kuat rear mount bike rack, as our SUV had a larger hitch receiver. Well built, clean machining and a perfect fit. Fast shipping and exactly as advertised. Great communication surrounding the order. Couldn't recommend more.

Titan Hitch Box Extension for 2-1/2" Trailer Hitches, 41" - 48" Long
Just received the 41/48 inch hitch extension today so haven’t actually used it. However, one can tell the high quality by looking at the welds and thick paint coating. This item is extremely heavy. I expected some weight to it, but it surprised me. Also, the tubing has very tight tolerances. I have two ball mounts, neither of which slid into the extension on their own. I had to pound them in and tap them out with a 3 pound hammer. Once paint and labels were scraped away by this action the ball mounts were able to be slid in by hand. This extension will be used on my dually carrying my truck camper. I’ll be towing an aluminum trailer with a Can Am Spyder. Total weight towed will be less than 2000 pounds so I don’t expect the extension to be subjected to any stress.
As per my last 3 orders here are some pictures of how I received the item along with what was broke or bent. I can fix it but I shouldn’t have to. So I will try elsewhere from now on cant deal with your shipping dept , anymore.

Yakima Roof Basket Review - 2020 Ford Edge
Hey, everybody, welcome to etrailer.com. I'm Bobby. And today we're taking a look at the Yakima off-grid roof mounted cargo basket here on our 2020 Ford Edge. So this is gonna be an excellent way of getting a little bit more of that cargo space inside of your Ford Edge, really freeing it up that way if you guys have any of those weekend trips, long summer trips, anything like that, really start making it easier to go ahead and actually sit inside your car without feeling cramps. Becomes a great way of to just keeping maybe some of your sports assessors outside of your vehicle. I know a lot of us probably have some kiddos starting to get in football and baseball, all that things, all those things, right Generating all that stinky clothes, we can go ahead, put those gym bags up on here, keep them from being inside of our vehicle, whatever need we have, right The off-grid is gonna let us carry it.
Curt Roof Basket Review - 2020 Ford Edge
Hey, everybody welcome to etrailer.com. I'm Bobby, and today we're taking a look at the Curt roof mounted cargo basket here on our 2020 Ford Edge.

What's nice about it We're not gonna be breaking the bank, but we're still getting a very nice secure way of going ahead and latching on our cargo, that way it's with us whenever we get to our destination. Now the Ford Edge here doesn't have the worst cargo management out there I think it has a pretty decent back end of course, but as soon as you load up four people in a vehicle, it quickly fills up, especially, you guys are finding yourself on a longer road trip or something like that, especially fitting all the snacks in, so this is an excellent way of getting that bulky cargo out of there, freeing up some space. Secondly, it's really good for anything like sports activities, if we do have those big old gym bags or sets of football gear, soccer, whatever, baseball, we're setting in all that soiled linens on the inside of the vehicle, can definitely get a little musty, kind of get that smell, right.

etrailer Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2018 Ford Edge

That'll just help out with making sure you got enough leg and elbow room for your passengers from maybe one of those longer road trips.Another great use is that if you maybe have a ton of equipment that's really dirty or muddy you just spent all day out in the rain and mud, you can just load that stuff onto the carrier, strap it down, and then take it home without getting it on the floorboard of your edge and having to clean up those carpeted floor mats.

Rhino-Rack MasterFit Rooftop Cargo Box Review - 2015 Ford Edge
Hey everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer and today we're taking a look at how the Rhino-Rack MasterFit rooftop box, the extra large version that's 18 cubic feet fits on the 2015 Ford Edge. So if you're planning on going out for an adventure or a road trip, it's pretty helpful to have a place that's not just your trunk or your hatch to store your extra sports gear, luggage, skis, snowboards, things like that. So a rooftop box would be a great option for that. This creates more space above your roof but it's also sleek and even though this is the 18 and 1/2 cubic feet version it is a good fit for the Ford Edge. So this is a very close fit meaning you can open up the hatch but you are gonna have to make some adjustments so that it doesn't touch. So here, with our hatch fully open all the way there you can see the clearance between the box and the hatch is like about a millimeter of space in between.
Curt Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2015 Ford Edge
Today on our 2015 Ford Edge, we're going to be taking a look at the Curt 20x48 cargo carrier, part number C18110. On this particular cargo carrier, something that's really nice is that it's got this nice, heavy duty steal flooring so that whatever dirt and debris they get on here is going to fall through so that way it doesn't collect and get onto the bottom of your cargo. It's got this brace that goes straight across the center and then a nice strong frame that supports it around the outside to give it a 300 pound capacity. Here on the lip, that makes up the wall all the way around, we've got some predrilled tie down points to help make that you can keep your cargo secure on this carrier. Let's take a few measurements. First, well see total distance added to the vehicle. That's going to be about 26 inches. We'll get the closest point to the vehicle which is right about 6 inches.
Reese 24x60 Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2014 Ford Edge
Ryan: Hey, everybody. Ryan here at etrailer.com. Today on our 2014 Ford Edge we're going to be taking a look at the Reese Explorer cargo carrier. The carrier is going to be a great option for you if you either need to carry more cargo or take the stuff that you normally would haul inside, put it out, and free up some space.This is one of the larger carriers available, and it's going to be 24" long, 60" wide, and 5-1/2" deep. That's going to give us plenty of room to carry all that sporting equipment, camping equipment, things of that nature. And with how the rails are designed, it's going to give us plenty of spaces to use our straps to secure everything down.The bottom of the carrier is actually made out of mesh, so when we have these leaky coolers in here, we're not going to have to worry about cleaning up inside of the car or have to worry about that water puddling up and damaging our other gear.
Rola 22x59 Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2014 Ford Edge
Brian: How's it going Brian here at etrailer.com. Today on our 2014 Ford Edge, we're going to be taking a look at the ROLA hitch-mounted cargo carrier. Our cargo carrier is going to allow us to do a couple of things. One, either load more cargo on the outside of our vehicle here, or two, take that stuff that we normally carry inside, put it outside, and free up some space.Now what I really like about this one is not only the look of it, but the feel of it. Immediately once you get your hands on it, you can tell it's extremely well-built and heavy duty. It is going to be relatively large, and that's going to be perfect for those full size coolers, that camping gear, or even that sporting equipment.

Next, we'll go over a few clearance measurements. We have a ground clearance at the rear of the carrier at about 11". The closest point of the carrier to the closest point of our vehicle is about 6". We've added 25" to the overall length of our vehicle.
Curt Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2013 Ford Edge
Today on our 2013 Ford Edge, we'll be test fitting the Curt 20" x 48" cargo carrier, part number C18145. To mount our carrier to the vehicle, we'll insert the shank of the carrier into the receiver tube of our hitch. We'll line up our hitch pin hole and then thread in our anti-rattle bolt, tightening it with a wrench. Next, we're going to go over a few clearance measurements. At the rear of the carrier, we have a ground clearance of 11", and the closest point of the carrier to the closest point of our vehicle is about 1-1/2". We've added 20-1/2" to the overall length of our vehicle.
