This extension adds 8" of clearance to your hitch so you can mount an accessory without worrying about vehicle contact. Includes anti-wobble bolt and locking hitch pin. Great for vehicles with spare tires, recessed hitches, or van doors.Delivery was fast, packaged very well, and the hitch extension is really well made. It is perfect for getting my bike rack away from my rear door to allow access to the back of my Forester. Impressive construction. I will recommend it to others.
I bought this hitch extender to move my Swagman bike rack further away from the back of my trailer because the bike handle bars were rubbing against the trailer. I chose this extension because of the anti-rattle pin to better secure the hitch during transport. This extension moved the bikes far enough away that the handle bars no longer rubbed against the trailer. It also allowed the receiver to be centered on the back of the trailer because the bike tires no longer interfered with the spare tire on the back, provided clearance to access the city water connection with the bikes still loaded, and provided better visibility to one of the rear taillights since the receiver could be moved to the center of the trailer. After a 2,000 mile journey, the pin never came loose and the bike rack on the extension rode smoothly. This extension solved many issues i was having with the bike rack on the back of my trailer.
This hitch item not only worked exactly like I needed, but was of superior construction, as it included a unique primary lockpin idea that keeps the extension from wobbling, as well as locking the part to the vehicle receiver. I always get more value than expected on the accessories from etrailer.
High quality product. Works perfectly with my bike rack to give me the clearance I need to be able to lower the tailgate on my Tacoma without hitting the rack.
Thanks, it arrived as promised. The Plastic lock seems a little flimsy - time will tell
This will give you the extra clearance needed between your bike rack and your tailgate. Had one stolen. just replaced it with this one that actually locks! Have not had a chance to install it yet.
Great product!
Very high quality,fits just right. Perfect for what i need
Delivered on time (UPS) and exactly what was ordered.
Nice product. Had to have it for bike rack to work on odyssey van. Nice that it came with locks too. I just leave it on all the time.
Works great. The eight inch extension was the perfect length to clear my spare tire. The locking anti-rattle pin eliminates any movement. My bike rack had a similar pin, so very secure installation. If the lock had a dust cover, it would be 5 star.
Works great! Keeps my Tule bike rack away from Subaru Outback tailgate. I would have preferred something and inch or two shorter.
Excellent construction and supplied with anti-rattle lock.
I would purchase again and recommend to others.
Purchase made to allow tailgate to open without removing bike rack.
Prompt shipping, works as advertised. The keyed end of the hitch pin lock seems a little less than solid but really haven't put it through any stress yet, just one trip near town.
Just as promised. Solid extension, just what I needed.
Works perfectly, just what I needed so the bike rack would clear the spare tire on the wrangler!
Did the job, no issues. Received it pretty quick.
Job well done. Arrived quickly and in perfect packaging. Agent was very helpful advising me what would work for my application.
I don't know what to think because I have not received the product. Contrary to what the delivery company says.

I will have our Customer Service team reach out to you.
Heavy duty and priced right with anti rattle
The staff at etrailer was very professional and helpful.
Works perfectly on my Jeep. Bought this so we could put our bike rack on without removing the spare tire. Works like a charm high quality product with super easy installation.
Love it! Easy to take on and off. Very solid! Highly recommend!
Quick and easy to take off and put on. Very solid. No rattling, stays tight. I take it off for winter months so I can't say how it would hold up with snow/salt. But regulat wear and tear...great results
Just what I needed, great company to do business with .

Still the perfect hitch accessory, as mentioned, and I use it on all 3 vehicles I tow with.
