Most Popular Hitch Expander for Ford Explorer

Product was delivered on-time as expected. This adapter is being used on a Volvo XC60 with a retractable receiver. Although it fit in the receiver the locking hitch pin did go all the way thru without a little brute force. Not sure if it is a receiver, adapter, or a hitch pin problem. Would have been nice to have a little more guidance.

The part was for a 2025 Volvo XC60. It fits perfectly with the Volvo’s tow hitch. I can now use my bike rack without an issue.

The Curt C45785 1.25 inch to 2 inch hitch adapter seems well-constructed, but does NOT fit the current SPA Volvo OEM 1.25 inch automatic retractable hitch receptacle (mine is on a 2020 V60 Cross country). The lock pin hole doesn't go back far enough to accommodate the pin -- see photo.

Sits fairly loose in the 1 1/4" hitch receiver. Also didn't come with a hitch pin, so you have to buy that separately too.

I purchase this to use with a Thule bike rack. The Thule rack requires a 2-in receiver so this should have worked. However it's so shaky and loose that I didn't feel comfortable driving it down the street. I should have returned it but I went back to using another vehicle I have with a 2-in receiver.

Hitch pin hole was too far up the shaft and couldn't lock into the receiver. Had to return.

The quality of the hitch adapter looks great and very stout.

Works great with our bike rack.
