Use your 2" hitch-mounted accessories with your 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" trailer hitch and extend your trailer hitch receiver opening with the same piece. Sturdy, black powder coated steel construction.This is perfect for my use! I have a 1 ton truck with a 2.5 in hitch and I needed something to allow me to to attached a Thule TX2 pro bike rack more solidly than the factory hitch 2.5 to 2 in sleeve. This extended helped by allowing a secure attachment point to the receiver and a second point for the rack. It's now very secure and I can haul the family bikes without worry of the sleeve coming out. 653467
My truck has a 2-1/2" receiver. I already owned a heavy duty 2" hitch. This 2" reducer & extender was perfect for my use. I used it to tow a rental trailer and needed to extend my receiver to allow me to tow with the tailgate down. This reducer/extender did the trick. I had plenty of room making tight u-turns. The quality of the product is very good. I would recommend this product to others. 484689
I appreciate the fast shipping. I’m using this part to reduce the 2.5” hitch on my Ram Power Wagon to 2”, and to create more space for my tailgate to be lowered. I’m pulling a 4,000 lb. camper using a anti-sway weight distribution hitch. 704245
We bought a Thule EasyFold XT 2 bike rack for our 2017 Ford F-250. I wanted a reducer and extender that would allow me to open the back cap and lower the tailgate without doing anything to the rack. This was the perfect answer. 915845
The reducer and extender fits perfectly in my hitch. I bought it to accommodate a bike rack made for use in a 2 inch receiver. The shipping was fast and it arrived earlier than expected. 911170
Product as described, fast shipping and now I can haul my golf cart in the bed of my truck with the tailgate down with the camper hooked up and no issues with clearance. 2018 Denali 6 1/2 ft bed. 909022
Just what I needed to use my bike Thule rack on my 2-1/2" receiver with an anti-rattle pin. 893304
My first order from e-trailer. Everything went well and I received good updates throughout the process. Quality of part was very good. I will order again when I need a trailer part. 877789
Heavy duty ... and perfect for my need ... which was a relatively short extender with pin placements for both the 2 1/2" side and the 2" side. 875476

The reducer arrived quickly and fit easily into my 2.5 inch receiver. With the extender I am able to fit a bike rack onto my truck. 871463
Good product. I mounted my mud flap system on this. Works great. 862405
Mariah provided superlative customer service. This extension was out of stock and when my order was confirmed it showed a delivery date that would have been too late because of a planned trip. I called and Mariah confirmed that etrailer would receive it in a week and she'd make sure it was shipped out promptly. She also followed up after shipment to confirm that I had received it on time. Can't beat the service and the item is just what I needed. 862069
The Hitch Reducer works fine, my only complaint is it has a lot of play between the hitch and reducer. Tried to shim, my Thule bike rack really moves around going down the road. When you hit a bump rally jars the bike rack. Also wish it had another adjustment hole, I have a new dodge 2500 hits the spare tire, if it would extend farther into the receiver this may help with the play in the reducer. Service was great though 856206
It allowed me to continue using my 2” hitch mount bike rack with the standard 2.5” hitch on the F250. Due to the anti wobble design of the rack, a simple insert will not work. This product solved the problem. 855228
Holding up great. Allows my tailgate to fully open while hauling my RV 852735
Been good with no problems. I keep it o iled. 829125
I purchased this to use on my 2500HD to transition from the factory 2.5" receiver to a 2" so that we could use a Yakima hitch mounted bike rack. With the length of the tube, it also provides the perfect amount of clearance from the back of the truck so that I can lower the tailgate without it hitting the upright on the bike rack. Great product and always pleased with etrailer's customer service! 821972
This worked perfect for a service truck with a flat bed. 817908
The adapter works very well. No issues with it a year later. Love being able to make turns without worrying about my truck bed hitting the RV cap. Highly recommend this item. 809168
This works perfect on my Ram 2500 to extend my hitch for my trailer toy hauler. I can now load my Polaris ATV in truck bed and keep the tailgate down and still hook up and unhook and haul trailer. Very solid piece of steel and well coated to prevent rust. 805936
Solid construction. Works just like it should. 786132
Very quick to ship I needed 5.5 inches to clear my trailer jack with the tailgate this gives me a comfortable 7 inches. 784867
This item made it possible to use all my old hitch items after purchasing a 2017 2500 diesel Ram which had a 2 1/2 inch receiver hitch. Love it. 779250
Works fine. 770722
