Most Popular 4000 lbs for 2022 Jeep Cherokee

Great product. Needed this for two reasons. 1. I needed to be able to load both bikes and a cargo carrier on the back of a Jeep Cherokee. 2. I also needed more room between the bike rack and the rear cargo door to load and unload with out having to tilt the bike rack.

Used the Malone 2" Dual Purpose Hitch Receiver to have a bike rack with two bikes on the upper Receiver and a 21' bassboat on the lower Receiver. Ran down to Florida Everglades, Florida Keys and back home. Almost exactly 4,000 miles. Hitch worked perfectly. I did find that you can not "jacknife" the boat as much or the bow of the boat will touch the bikes on the rack but that is to be expected. Hitch was quiet, strong and exceeded my expectations. Easy to install and looking forward to using it again in a month for another 4,000 mile road trip. Note: I drive fast and the roads are not always perfect. This is a sturdy Hitch Receiver. Hope this review helps you. Sorry, crummy photo as the Receiver is a "set it and forget it" product. Be well.

Works as advertised. I use it full time. I painted the step surface with Herculon bed liner for a rubberized non slip surface, that works even when covered with frost or mud. Only down side, is that it reduces the tongue weight of the truck hitch by 50%. I typically use it to haul a 2 horse trailer. If it ever gets damaged, I will immediately by a replacement.

Affordable front step (wide platform) to service lifted vechicles and will provide distance between exterior mounted spare tire and hitch rack. Suggestion: design the step to fold up or down for a full time install.
