The difference between the Class II and Class III hitches has to do with their Gross Trailer Weight (GTW), their Tongue Weight (TW), and their Hitch Receiver Size. Class II trailer hitch receivers have a 1-1/4 inch receiver and can be rated up to…
The cargo bag I highly recommend for your Pro Series Cargo Carrier #63153 is the etrailer Cargo Bag #988501. It has 20 cubic feet of storage, is waterproof with PVC coated nylon, and has six tie-down straps that will secure it to your Pro Series…
I do have a solution for you, but the 24x60 etrailer Cargo Carrier #e98874 is not designed to be used on the back of an RV. Generally speaking, folding carriers are not ideal because they do not stand up too well to the extra stress exerted by the…
Hey Hugo, so the cargo carrier part #C18152 is the base of the #C63ZJ which is the carrier plus the enclosure but oddly enough we don't sell the enclosure by itself. We used to and it was part #e52PR but we now only have it available in the…
Hey Jesus! The #e98ZR comes with an alignment collar and a hitch pin. The Curt #C31006 does not include these and costs a little more. Outside of that, they are the exact same spare mount with different branding. What rig are you setting this up on?
Hey Anthony! For your setup I recommend using the Swagman Swivel Hitch Extender #S86SR. Not only will this extend the cargo carrier out past your spare tire, but the swinging arm means you don't have to unload your carrier just to open up your…

Hi Travis; what you linked was a rear step. I don't have a way to know if the #75549 (for standard bumper) or #75601 (for step bumper) will fit with that FVCO step. The step looks like it fits a standard bumper so I suppose it is possible, but…
Yes, it does! The 24x60 etrailer Enclosed Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches item #e54VV does include the cage and the cargo carrier with a floor. I attached a picture below so you can see this setup in use. The cage is just sides and a top though.…
Although nothing is completely theft-proof when placed in an open cargo carrier like part #C18110, you can take some measures to make it a lot tougher for thieves. If the cargo can be placed in one container or bag like the etrailer Cargo Bag, part…
Hey Leonard! Are you wanting to know if you will be able to open the rear hatch on your 2022 Outback? More than likely you can, the #TH25YE has that curved design at the rear with a decent amount of clearance. Because of that design, there isn’t a…

Hitch cargo carriers are the perfect solution for those who need extra storage space for their adventures. Whether you're heading to the beach, the mountains, or just need more room for a road trip, these carriers offer a secure and convenient way to transport your gear. Consider factors like size, weight capacity, and security features when choosing the right one for your needs.
Most hitch cargo carriers are designed for easy assembly and installation, often taking just a few minutes to set up. They typically slide into a standard 2-inch receiver hitch, making them a convenient option for quick trips. Some models even feature a fold-up design for added clearance and storage when not in use.
Security is crucial when using a hitch cargo carrier. Many carriers come with locking mechanisms, but it's wise to add additional locks for peace of mind. Consider using long shackle locks to secure both the carrier and its contents, especially if you're carrying valuable items like generators or bicycles.
Look for features like foldable designs for easy storage, high weight capacity for heavy loads, and durable materials that can withstand rough conditions. Some carriers also offer walls or mesh sides to help secure your cargo and prevent it from shifting during transit.
A hitch cargo carrier can reduce wind noise and drag compared to roof-mounted options, making it a quieter and more fuel-efficient choice. It's also easier to load and unload, saving you time and effort. Just ensure your vehicle's hitch can support the carrier's weight and the additional cargo.
While some hitch cargo carriers can carry bicycles, it's important to check the dimensions and design. Road bikes with smaller frames may fit, but larger mountain bikes might be a tight squeeze. Consider a dedicated bike rack if you frequently transport bicycles.
