• Anti-rattle Device for 1-1/4 Inch Trailer Hitch Recessed Inside of Bumper
  You could use Roadmaster Quiet Hitch # RM-061-125 upside down but I don't think it is going to fit based on your pictures. Something smaller like Item # F-315 that goes into the shank of the accessory you are inserting into the hitch will likely fit better but will not worth with accessories that have a solid shank. If you need a draw bar with an anti-rattle solution check out Brophy's Anti-Rattle Drawbar, 1-1/4" Hitch, 5-1/2" Rise / 6" Drop, 7-1/4" L, 3.5K Item # BR39FR

• Solution for Stabilizing Hitch Connection with Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack
  The Kuat NV 2.0 2-Bike Platform Rack # NV12G does have an integrated anti-rattle wedge that deploys from the shank when tightening the knob but you can certainly add an additional device for even more stability at this connection. For this I recommend taking a look at the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch # RM-061-125. This is designed for 1-1/4 inch hitch receivers and works to eliminate that rattle and movement by sliding over the bike rack's shank and hooking the U-bolt around the collar of the...

• Recommended Anti-Rattle Device for 1-1/4 to 2 Inch Trailer Hitch Adapter
  The Roadmaster Quiet hitch would be a great choice. You might actually need two of the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch Anti-Rattle Devices. You'll need part # RM-061-125 for the connection between your adapter and the receiver hitch, and the Quiet Hitch designed for 2 inch hitches, part # RM-061 for the connection between the adapter and the hitch accessory. If the hitch accessory already has an anti-rattle device like some bike racks do, then you'd just need the # RM-061-125. Keep in mind that...

• Recommended Anti-Rattle Adapters For 1-1/4 Inch Trailer Hitch Carrying Bike Rack
  To reduce the rattle and wobble on your hitch when you are using your bike rack we have a couple options you can check out. First, if your trailer hitch has a lip on the end of the receiver I recommend the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch, part # RM-061-125. I have attached a photo of this adapter installed on a trailer hitch you can take a look at. Another adapter you can use with your 1-1/4 inch trailer hitch is the No-Rattle, part # 63090. This works great if you have a hitch pin that allows...

• Roadmaster Quiet Hitch Recommendation for a 1-1/4 inch Hitch
  There is a version of the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for a 1-1/4 inch hitch. For that you would want the part # RM-061-125 instead of the # RM-061. For a lightweight wheelchair you would want to use a cargo carrier like the part # C18145 as the bike rack part # VME-V2 can only be safely used to transport bikes. To secure the wheelchair you could use the stretchable cargo net part # C18200.

• Recommendation To Solve Movement Of Hitch Mounted Bike Rack With Threaded Pin
  Some factory hitches have more of a tolerance that is accepted than aftermarket parts. You may have some additional sag due to this, but being able to lift the rack several inches seems excessive. The receiver should not be 1-1/2 inches, and the 1-1/4 inch shank should fit snug once you've tightened the threaded bolt. My recommendation is to use the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 1-1/4" Trailer Hitches # RM-061-125. This will immobilize your hitch and take that slack that could cause...

• How To Help Further Stabilize the Inno Tire Hold 1 Bike Platform Rack During Transport
  Yes, in order to make the Inno Tire Hold 1 Bike Platform Rack part # INH110 more secure during transport with your 2005 Subaru Impreza you have two options. The first option is an anti rattle device, TheRoadmaster Quiet Hitch for 1-1/4" Trailer Hitches part # RM-061-125 which clamps around the bike rack shank thereby reducing movement. The other option you have is a support strap, the Curt Cam Buckle Stabilizing Strap for Hitch-Mounted Accessories part # 18050 which will most likely reduce...

• How to Reduce Movement of Swagman XTC-2 2-Bike Platform Rack
  The Swagman XTC-2 2-Bike Platform Rack part # S64670 comes with a threaded hitch pin which will help to reduce rattle/wobble but if you need even further reduction then you will want to consider using an additional anti-rattle device like the Roadmaster quiet hitch part # RM-061-125 for 1-1/4" receivers or part # RM-061 for 2" receivers. We do ship to Canada!

• Hitch Pin Alignment for 1-1/4 Hitch Receiver Accessories
  Great question. I don't know how long until the 1-1/4 inch option is available. We have focused on the 2 inch option because the accessories are so much heavier. You can use the Pro Series Anti-Rattle Device for 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" Trailer Hitch Receivers # 63090 flipped backwards for the same function. One other option is the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch # RM-061-125 which can be used to give you that stop as well.

• Trailer Hitch and Hitch Adapter Recommendation for 2019 Buick Encore Carrying Kuat NV
  Yes, you would want to use an anti-rattle for the 1-1/4 inch portion of the adapter. For that the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch part # RM-061-125 would work well. It uses a U-bolt to hold the adapter tight to the hitch tube.

  The etrailer Hitch Pin Alignment Collar for Bike Racks, Cargo Carriers, Ball Mounts, and Tow Bars # e98942 is currently only available for the 2 inch receivers, but we have found an option for the 1-1/4 inch products.

• Anti-Rattle Device for a Kuat Transfer 2 Bike Platform Rack
  I do have an option for you but I can't confirm that the Trailer Hitch Anti-Rattle Kit part # F-315 will work with the Kuat Transfer 2 Bike Platform Rack part # TS02G. They are just not simply tested for use with one another. Instead, I recommend using the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch part # RM-061-125 so long as you factory trailer hitch has a ring/collar around the receiver tube opening. The Roadmaster Quiet Hitch is going to pin the shank of the bike rack against the side of the receiver...

• Lock and Anti-Rattle Device That Can be Used with Solid Shank
  While you can both lock your accessory or ball mount as well as use an anti-rattle device, there isn't an option for a single device that will do both. For a solid shank what I recommend is using a simple hitch receiver lock, the etrailer.com Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # e98880 with the Gen-Y Anti-Rattle Clamp # 325-GH-033, both of which are for 2" trailer hitches. These are also available if you have a 1-1/4" hitch (Lock # e98879, Clamp # RM-061-125) or 2-1/2" hitch (Lock # e98881,...

• Anti-Rattle Device for 2 Inch to 1-1/4 Inch Receiver Adapter Carrying Bike Rack
  Because using an adapter like the # C45770 adds another piece to the connection between the hitch receiver tube and the hitch mounted accessory (bike rack in this instance), you will tend to get some more movement than you normally would. If you were to use a Roadmaster Quiet Hitch, part # RM-061 where the adapter connects to the receiver hitch, it would prevent movement there. If your bike rack already has an anti-rattle threaded hitch pin, you won't need to do anything about the connection...

• Availability of Rise Adapter for 1-1/4 Inch Receiver Hitch
  If the bike rack is designed for a 2 inch hitch, but you're wanting a rise adapter that would allow it to be used in a Class II 1-1/4 inch hitch, the # MT70355 could be used. If you have a Class I hitch, you'd need to use # HT5R. The 1-1/4 inch shank isn't hollow though, so you'd need to use a different type of anti rattle device like the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch, part # RM-061-125. Be aware, however that using the # MT70355 adapter would lower the hitch tongue weight capacity by half. If...

• How To Reduce Rattle When Using a 2 Inch to 1-1/4 Inch Reducer with Bike Rack
  I do have an option for you but all of the reducer sleeves like the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter part # C45770 are going to be problematic in regards to excess slop at the connection point. However, what you can do to avoid this is use an anti-rattle device. The best anti-rattle devices we have are the Roadmaster Anti-Rattle devices which can be used for both the hitch reducer, and your 1-1/4" accessories. For the 2" side of the reducer you can use part # RM-061 and for the 1-1/4"...

• Locking Hitch Pin and Anti-Rattle Device for the Brophy Hitch Adapter # HT5R
  I do have a solution for you to add a locking hitch pin and an anti-rattle device to your Brophy Hitch Adapter # HT5R but since it has a solid shank that isn't threaded the Thule Snug Tite Hitch Lock and Anti-Rattle Device # THSTL2 won't work properly like it does with your Thule T2 Pro XTB # TH9034XT. Instead what you will need to do is use the Swivel Head Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 1-1/4" and 2" Trailer Hitches # 2866DAT and the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch # RM-061-125 to lock and...

• Anti-Rattle Device for Use with Hitch Adapter
  Any hitch adapter/extender product such as 2-inch-to-1-1/4-inch adapters # HTAD and # HT5R can introduce the potential for some rattle. But we do offer anti-rattle devices that can take most of the slack out of such systems to reduce rattle and noise. In your 1-1/4-inch hitch (or in a 2-inch) you can use part # RM-061-125 which is shown in the linked video. Do note that any hitch adapter will reduce the hitch's rated capacity by 50-percent.

• Is There An Anti-Rattle Pin/Lock for Curt Class II Euro Style Drawbar
  The Curt Class II Euro Style Drawbar part # C45571 has a solid shank so it would not work with any sort of threaded anti-rattle device. Instead, you'd need to use something like the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 1-1/4" Trailer Hitches part # RM-061-125 with the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock part # e98879.

• Anti-Rattle Device Recommendations for 1-1/4 inch to 2 inch Hitch Adapter
  What you described is one of the downsides of using a hitch extender like the # HTAD. It adds a bunch of movement to the hitch. If the bike rack has a standard hollow shank with a non-threaded hitch pin you could use the part # 63232 for that portion of the setup and then for the 1-1/4 inch portion you could use the # RM-061-125. The best solution though would be to go with a bike rack that is designed to fit your hitch size so that you don't have to use the adapter. This would solve...

• Locking Hitch Pin Recommendation for Brophy 1-1/4" Drawbar
  To replace your anti-rattle hitch bolt you're using with the Brophy Drawbar for 1-1/4" Hitches # BM96 I recommend using the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # e98879. I really like this lock because the barrel threads onto the pin so it's harder to break into, plus the cap does an amazing job at keeping dust out of the mechanism. If you'd still like to have some anti-rattle integrated into your towing setup then I recommend also using the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 1-1/4" Trailer...

• Best Anti-Rattle Locking Hitch Pin for a Trailer Hitch Adapter with 1-1/4 Inch Shank
  The 1-1/4 inch shank on the MaxxTow adapter # MT70355 is solid, see picture, so you will not be able to use anti-rattle hitch lock # SHP2082. But I do have a solution that you might like. You could use locking hitch pin # 5200 with hitch immobilizer # RM-061-125. It may not be the prettiest set up but it will give you a lock and anti-rattle.

• Availability of a 2 Trailer Hitch Receiver for a 2000 Honda Accord
  I do have a possible solution for you to use your bike rack with your 2000 Honda Accord, but unfortunately there are no 2 inch trailer hitch receiver available for your Accord. Out of the available trailer hitches I recommend going with the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24791. This has a Gross Towing Weight (GTW) of 2,000 lbs and a Tongue Weight (TW) of 200 lbs. According to page 167 of your owner's manual your Accord can handle up to 850 lbs. This includes all occupants,...

• Do Draw-Tite Trailer Hitches Require a Stabilization Strap Like Curt Hitches for a 2016 Mazda CX-3
  Curt is the only manufacturer that requires the use of stabilization strap # 18050. No other manufacturers require it though you can still use it if you want to. The idea is that the strap reduces some of the stress on the hitch. Uhaul hitches are just rebranded hitches from other hitch manufacturers so it is a Draw-Tite or a Curt too. Any accessory you put in a hitch is going to move. This is because the shank of the accessory has to be a little smaller than the receiver opening so...

• Is Draw-Tite Class III Hitch 75784 Compatible with J-Pin Locking Stabilizer 63201
  Draw-Tite Hitch # 75784 is a confirmed fit on your 2017 Acura RDX and this hitch is indeed compatible with the J-pin locking stabilizer # 63201. This will work along with Reducer Sleeve # HT02 to allow your 1-1/4-inch bike rack to be installed in this 2-inch hitch. The J-pin will stabilize the reducer in the hitch tube but it will not do anything for the potential rattle of the bike rack's 1-1/4-inch shank in the reducer's opening. You may care to use a secondary anti-rattle device...

• Recommended Locking Pin and Anti-Rattle for Rola TX-103 Bike Carrier
  The Rola TX-103 3-Bike Rack for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting # 59403 has a threaded pin on the the 2 inch shank but not on the 1-1/4 inch shank. This will provide you with a connection to the hitch but will not give you the anti-rattle. I recommend using the hitch lock # e98879 and then using an anti-rattle device like the Quiet Hitch # RM-061-125.

• Will the Curt 17x46 Curt Cargo Carrier Work On 2012 Kia Sportage With Draw-Tite Hitch
  The Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 36510 which is a fit for a 2012 Kia Sportage will work just fine with the 17x46 Curt Cargo Carrier part # C18145. In regards to a hitch pin, you would not be able to replace this with a locking version due to the brand specific thread pitch but you could add an anti-rattle device like the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch part # RM-061-125 which works really well.
