Well made and solid however my receiver must have been homemade for the trike I purchased and the receiver is incorrect as in undersized.

Because of low ground clearance I bought this high 5" high rise for my carrier that I bought from you all and it worked great. I loved the ability to walk between the carrier and trunk. The high rise is easy to install. We had absolutely no issues on our 3000 mile round trip journey. The hitch, high rise and carrier were all purchased from you.

This works GREAT when we use our Segway PT Double Carrier on the back of our Class C RV. This VERY STURDY hitch height adapter allows us to deal with the extra receiver height on the RV and get the hitch tube down to a normal level. We send all of our Segway PT Carrier customers to etrailer.com to purchase hitch height adapters for their rigs when hitch height is a problem or, for hitches when they don't yet have a hitch on their vehicle. The folks at etrailer.com are just like family when speaking with them on the phone.

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.

For being so expensive, you would think it would be better quality. It’s not aligned properly and when i attach my bike rack, it’s crooked. Second, the weld was sloppy and had extra solder. So much so, that i couldn’t push it into the hitch far enough to get the pin in. I had to remove some solder do it would fit properly (all the way in so i could put the pin in). The adapter was almost as expensive as the hitch.

Purchased this for my 08 Honda Fit so that my 1.25" hitch could fit my 2" Bike Rack. Hitch Adapter was easy to install, however, I recommend also purchasing a hitch clamp. There was a bit of play between the adapter and the hitch, but that's expected. Adapter is well made and should last a long time. Only "issue" I had was the labels. I recognize everyone needs to advertise/market themselves but it would be nice to have a clean part without all the labels on it. Nothing a blade and goo-gone can't fix.

This well-made adapter is ideal for the 2016 Mazda Miata because it provides significant clearance for Curt Manufacturing's folding aluminum cargo carrier and remains 1 1/4" away from the rear license plate. I've already used this rig several times in several days (lawnmower, luggage, packages to be shipped) and it works great. Along with this fantastic product is fantastic service from the eTrailer.com team. Friendly, helpful, responsive. I couldn't ask for anything more, and recommend both this product and its distributor highly.

08' Honda CrV w/5" Brophy Hitch Riser

Awesome product with ultra fast int'l shipping to Canada next spor from etrailer. I read reviews, watched videos and studied the 360 degree measurements and dimensions as the tolerance on my CRV was tight. Prepared to grind or shave down the unit to clear my bumper I was astonished to fit it on and have 'just enough clearance'. I have a Class 1 hitch by Curt which is recessed more deeply than other brands.

Perfect for my 2015 honda fit

I received my trailer hitch adapter today on time as promised. I tried it out on both cars ( 2009 hyundai elantra and 2013 hyundai sonota . It works well by clearing the bumpers and raising the hitch 4 or 5 inches that i was trying to accomplish. I use the hitch for a bike rack and it was too low to the ground.My hitch is a 1-1/4 that the HT5R converts to a 2 inch but my bike rack also had an adapter to 2 inch, so it works perfect. I had talked to customer service prior to buying and they steered me in the correct direction and i am pleased to solve this problem.

The hitch raiser-upper is doing very well and has made a couple trips to Florida on one car and the other a bunch of trips to bike trails and our get away cabin. There are no problems but id like to see a solution to the receiver being tighter fit when slid into with the adapter. I know it has to go in easily but was thinking of putting some steel shims in to tighten it. It has not been a problem but i thought it would be good to cut down any play or sway while on the road . Thx for the follow up

by: Sab 05/09/2020 One Year Later

I've had this adapter for nearly 1.5 yrs now and it has been the best solution to use a 2" hitch bike rack on a small vehicle. It's incredibly sturdy and durable (backed up into a few parking curbs over the last 1.5 yrs when the rack wasn't on, but no dents to prove it). One drawback is the bit of wiggle between the hitch and the adapter, but if you have a local shop that can weld them together, then you're all set. Definitely recommend!

This was used on a 2012 VW Golf 2 door hatchback, base model.

I traded my car in today for another model, so apologies I don't have photos to share!

Another option for easily removing the wiggle between your 1-1/4 inch trailer hitch and hitch adapter is an Anti-Rattle Device like the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch # RM-061-125.

Works ok. The dimensions of the receiver (female) are a bit large. So the bike rack I purchased rattles & sways to-and-fro when mounted. I attempted to place some wood shims in the adapter to minimize this occurrence, but was unsuccessful.

To help prevent sway and rattle of your bike rack in the 2 inch hitch receiver, an anti-rattle device like the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch # RM-061 is a great solution.

The conversion piece is exactly what I needed. The hitch on my car is 1 1/2 " (even tho' the dealer promised me a 2" hitch). My carrier has a 2" opening. A standard converter left it too close to the ground when my mobility scooter was loaded.
This piece was easy to install and a test run today proved it to be a very wise purchase.

Working out well. Just used it on a week long vacation with my b III e rack that holds 4 bikes. Been able to avoid bottoming out.

My only comment would be that the black paint has worn off pretty quick after one New England winter.

I was hunting the web for a trailer hitch that would work with my Ford Fiesta and my handicap rack that wouldn't scrap the road or driveways and intersection.
I came across the Hitch Adapter from e-trailer.com. So I ordered the product.
Was so excited when the hitch arrived and took it to my welding shop to have custom adjustment for my bumper. For the first time since April 1, 2018 when my handicap rack arrived it didn't drag the pavement.
I am so excited and would love to have all of you know how wonderful the service from this company as the hitch even arrived a day early.

The hitch adapter is very solidly made and does its job but in my particular case I am slightly unpleased with how it hangs off the receiver. With a bike rack mounted in the adapter it appears that it sags down or less than parallel to the ground and it is not due to the rear of the car sagging or something. The hitch and adapter combination allow whatever is ed into it to sag down slightly. Fortunately in my case I am a welder fabricator and plan to modify it a little so it does not sag so I can get a little more ground clearance, etc. But functionally for most people I dont think it would be an issue. I am just very picky.

by: Doug E 04/02/2015

High quality construction and finish. Two minor issues: (1) the security-pin hole in the 1-1/4" end did not line up with the hole in the Draw-Tite hitch - too some "modification" to make that work; (2) the 2" receiver does not have a backing plat or "stop" in it, so you need to be very careful when sliding a hitch, bike rack, etc. in - so that you don't harm your vehicle.

1-1/4" to 2" Hitch Adapter For Bike Rack On A 2011 Toyota Camry With The Draw-Tite 36416 Hitch
Hello Richard. We do have an adapter, the Brophy Hitch Adapter # HT5R which may work very well for you. This will go in to the 1-1/4" receiver on your Camry and give you a 2" receiver with 5" of rise. It is very important to note that when using this kind of adapter, the weight capacity of your hitch will be reduced by 50%. This means that your Draw-Tite # 36416 hitch will only be able to carry 150 lbs of tongue weight. This is including the weight of the adapter (8 lbs) plus the weight...

Please note that whenever you use a hitch adapter that your hitch's capacity is cut by 50%. If there is anything else I can help you with, please feel free to let me know in the comments and I'd be happy to help!

Can Bike Rack for 2 inch Hitches be Installed in 1-1/4 inch Trailer Hitch
Hey Chris, based on what you described it sounds like you have a Class I hitch on your XC60 and the 2 inch hitch adapter you are trying to use is for Class II hitches only and because of that the adapter won't fit into the hitch.

Is there a 2 inch Hitch for a 2012 Toyota Camry?
Hey Jim! I checked with all of our vendors and I am sorry but the only hitches available for the 2012 Toyota Camry are class II ones with 1-1/4" receivers like the Curt item # C12107. This hitch has a 300 lbs tongue weight capacity but you'll need to use an adapter like the item # HT5R for a wheel chair carrier. The issue with any adapter is it cuts your hitches capacity by 50% so you're only left with 150 lbs to spread out amongst the chair and carrier.

There is a potential way for you to haul an electric wheelchair with a 2017 Ford Mustang, although there is not an adapter that is going to work.

Additionally, the use of any adapter will reduce the weight capacity of your hitch by 50 percent, and since there are only Class I hitches with a...

Can Two Hitch Extenders Be Used Together
The thing about hitch extenders is that with each one you use you end up cutting the hitch's capacity in half. Since you would be using two of them you would end up cutting the capacity by 75 percent. When you combine that with the fact that the # HT5R specifically states that you shouldn't use it with any other hitch extenders I can not recommend you use this setup. If you can get by with just using the # HT5R or just the # hes6 and would still have the needed capacity after being reduced...

Yes, you can use a hitch adapter like this one from Brophy # HTAD which fits into a 1-1/4" hitch receiver and has a 2" receiver on the other end. If you want an adapter with a rise, there's also # HT5R which gives you a lift of 5 inches. The main issue with hitch adapters though is that they reduce your tongue weight capacity by 50%. That means if your hitch used to have a 250lb weight capacity, whenever you use the hitch adapter you now have 125 lbs to work with. Just keep that in mind...
