QH Dims

Nearly every hitch setup suffers from a bit of slip. This free play between your trailer hitch receiver and your hitch-mounted accessory is completely normal, but it's also completely preventable. By adding the Quiet Hitch to your setup, you can stabilize your hitch-mounted accessory as it sits in the receiver to eliminate rattle, sway, and all that extra play.


USE W ACCESSORIES - BAR ON TOP

Just slip the Quiet Hitch over your tow bar, hitch adapter, ball mount, or other accessory. When you slide the accessory into the hitch receiver, position the U-bolt around the collar on the bottom of your hitch receiver. Then place the bar on top of the accessory shank and tighten the nuts onto the U-bolt. As you tighten the Quiet Hitch, the shank of your accessory will be pulled down towards the bottom of the receiver opening, thus securing it in place within the tube.


Benefits for a Tow Bar

Using an anti-rattle device, such as the Quiet Hitch, is recommended when flat towing a vehicle. Besides reducing wear and tear on your tires, hitch receiver, and tow bar, using an anti-rattle device can help prevent more serious problems. A small amount of free play at your hitch may not seem like much, but this sway is magnified the farther back you go. A little movement at the hitch translates to a lot of movement at the rear of your towed vehicle. By using the Quiet Hitch, you eliminate this sway at the source.


Note: If you have a towing setup that includes a drop receiver or a high-low adapter, use 2 immobilizers to make your system as secure and rattle-free as possible. Use 1 Quiet Hitch at the connection point between the adapter and your hitch, and use the other where your tow bar slides into the adapter.

  • Recommended Spare Tire Carrier For Class C Motorhome
    We don't carry a bumper mounted spare tire carrier capable of the weight of a Class C Motorhome spare tire, however, we do have a hitch mounted option. The Roadmaster Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier w/ 2" Receiver Opening # RM-195225 is an ideal fit for your application. It does require a 2 inch hitch receiver, but it gives you a functional way for one person to load and unload a large spare safely. You may want to consider an anti-rattle like the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 2" Trailer...

  • Availability of Lift Kit for Escape 17B Travel Trailer
    Hi Michael; the Escape 17B uses a Dexter Torflex axle but you will have to identify which one. This can be found on the axle tag. Once you have identified the axle you can choose from the following: -Torflex Lift Kit # K71-723-01 (#9 Torflex with 7-3/4" bolt hole spacing) -Torflex Lift Kit # K71-707-01 (#10 Torflex with 8" bolt hole spacing) -Torflex Lift Kit # DX56CR (#11 Torflex with 9-1/2" bolt hole spacing) If I had to guess it is a #10 Torflex but the only way to know for sure...

  • Does Roadmaster Quiet Hitch Have Weight Capacity for Weight Distribution System
    Thanks for the photos and yes, you can use the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 2" Trailer Hitches # RM-061 with your set up. The Quiet Hitch doesn't actually have any weight requirement or weight capacity because it doesn't bear any of the load, it simply helps to stabilize mount that is in your Ford's hitch receiver. I have added links to a couple video reviews as well for you to check out of the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 2" Trailer Hitches # RM-061.

  • Recommended Ball Mount for 2 Inch Ball with No Rise and No Drop
    For a 2 inch hitch ball that has no rise and no drop, I recommend the Curt Solid 2-Ball Mount for 2" Hitches - 2" and 2-5/16" Balls - 10K - Black # C45660. For your anti-rattle, I recommend the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 2" Trailer Hitches # RM-061 which will give you the anti-rattle and then # e98880 for a locking hitch pin. If you want a 3 ball option I recommend # C62KR.

  • Availability of Higher Rated Ball Mount With 1/2" Hitch Pin Hole
    Hi Bob; is this a 1-1/4" receiver or a 2" receiver? The 5/8" hitch pin hole is standard on 2" receivers and the 1/2" is standard on 1-1/4" receivers. Since Class I and Class II hitches with a 1-1/4" receiver don't have high ratings you aren't going to find a ball mount designed to handle 7,700 lbs. A Class II hitch is going to top out at a 3,500 lb towing capacity so those ball mounts are rated to match. Also, the 5/8" and 1/2" hitch pins don't really carry a rating. Their capacity far...

  • Hitch Extender for Clearing Spare With Bike Rack on 2024 Land Rover Defender
    Hey Azmi! You can use a hitch extender to clear that spare on your Land Rover Defender. However, you have to keep in mind it will reduce the capacity of your hitch by 50%. As long as your bikes and bike rack don't exceed half the tongue weight capacity of your hitch you're set. It doesn't have to be anything fancy so I recommend the RockyMounts Hitch Extender # RKY10008. This is an 8" extension that also includes a locking hitch pin to keep it secure. I also recommend adding the etrailer...

  • Recommended Anti-Rattle for 2021 Nissan Frontier Towing Utility Trailer
    Hey Ed, welcome back! Looking at your picture there you have plenty of room for the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch # RM-061 which is what I recommend. The Quiet Hitch is a high quality anti-rattle that will hold up nicely over time. If you're still worried about being able to fit it on with that ball mount or other accessory, we also have our new etrailer Anti-Rattle Hitch Collar for 2" Hitch Receivers # e38FV. This is designed to stay on the receiver permanently so you always have it ready to go.

  • Can I Use a Anti-Rattle Device with My Anderson Weight Distribution System?
    Hello Donald, Yes, there are quite a few that will work. I recommend the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 2" Trailer Hitches # RM-061, this will install at the receiver of the hitch on the vehicle where the shank goes in. So it will help with the rattle at that connection. With any weight distribution system there is going to be some noise, it's the price we have to pay to keep things going in a straight line. What kind of trailer are you pulling with your weight distribution hitch? What do...

  • Recommended Hitch Extender for a Bike Rack
    Yes, your assessment is correct. The RockyMounts Hitch Extender LS w/ Hitch Pin and Lock item # RKY10011 will reduce your hitches capacity by 50%. You will still have more than enough capacity to carry your 1 Up 4 bike carrier. However, this extender is only recommended to be used with 3 bikes or less. If you are carrying 4 you will want to use the Brophy Hitch Extender item # HE06. It does have the same 50% reduction but it has no limit on the number of bikes you can carry. You add the...

  • Options on How to Fix a Loose 2 Inch Ball Mount
    I have a couple different options on ways to fix a loose ball mount. The Anti-Rattle Hitch Pin, # SHP2061, dramatically reduces any movement or vibration between your hitch and hollow shank ball mount. The No-Rattle Trailer Hitch Wedge, # MPG908, will take up play and eliminate rattle. The Roadmaster Quiet Hitch, # RM-061, helps eliminate rattle and sway within your hitch receiver.

  • How Can the Roadmaster Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier Be Secured to Deter Theft?
    The Roadmaster Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier w/ 2" Receiver Opening - 2" Hitches # RM-195225 can be secured with a hitch lock like the Blue Ox Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 2" Hitches - Flush - 2-3/4" Span - Chrome # BX8858. Then you can use a spare tire lock like the Fulton # FSTL0603 or etrailer.com lock # e98892.

    Hello Cathy. The etrailer Hitch Pin Alignment Collar # e58ZR will not work with a U-bolt hitch tightener like part # RM-061. They would install in the exact same location, so you would have to remove the alignment collar in order to use hitch tightener.

  • What Would Cause Bumper Pull Trailer to Chuck When Towing
    If you are experiencing chucking when towing a bumper pull trailer you most likely having movement between the hitch and ball mount as that would be the most likely area that would create that type of noise and movement. An anti-rattle device would be the easy solution for that like the Quiet Hitch # RM-061 which pins the ball mount to the hitch tube. Cushioned equalizers like the Road Armor part # LC696740 will improve the ride quality of the trailer suspension but they don't normally...

  • Ball Mount and Hitch Balls for 2018 Ford Escape Titanium
    The distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the anti-rattle device on the Solid Tow # DTSTBM6600 is right at 2", so it's not going to work if you've got only 1-1/2"; this also does not come with a 1-7/8" hitch ball. For these reasons it's really not going to be a good choice. What I recommend doing is using a regular rise/drop ball mount with a 6" drop like the Draw-Tite # 40346, which fits in a 2" receiver and uses hitch balls with 1" shank diameters. For a 1-7/8" hitch ball...

  • Can The etrailer Anti-Rattle Hitch Collar Be Used With Weight Distribution?
    Good question, Dan. Though there are options available that can be used with weight distribution systems (like the Roadmaster # RM-061), the etrailer # e38FV should not be used. The extreme loads that are associated with engaged weight distribution at the point where the collar interacts with the shank of the system are higher than what the collar is designed for and could lead to damage of the shank and or collar. So with that being said, if our collar is installed on your hitch, the...

  • Recommended Hitch Extender for a 2015 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Carrying Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack
    I can tell you have been doing some research and know what you are looking for. Just as a blanket statement, any hitch extender will reduce the tongue weight of your trailer hitch receiver even if it has a higher weight capacity, like the Roadmaster Anti-Rattle Hitch Extender # RM-071-1075 that you referenced. Both the Curt # C45791 and the Brophy # HE06 options will still cause some play by themselves because of the weight sitting further out from your trailer hitch pin hole. What I...

  • Will Curt Easy Mount Bracket Work With Anti-Rattle
    Hello again Mike; the Curt Easy Mount Bracket # C58003 mounts over the end of the receiver so it depends on the anti-rattle. If it is something like our own # e38FV or the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch # RM-061 it will not work. You would have to use an anti-rattle like # 63232 assuming you have a hollow shank. I would go with the # 18136 we talked about and bend it. It looks like you would actually have to make another cut in the fascia but it would give it a cleaner look overall. You can do...

  • Why Is etrailer Anti-Rattle Hitch Collar Not Compatible With Weight Distribution
    Hi Christopher; the design of the etrailer Anti-Rattle Hitch Collar # e38FV can't handle the forces a weight distribution hitch (WDH) applies when it is engaged. You can actually have it on your receiver while using a WDH, but you can't engage the anti-rattle feature. If you are looking for an anti-rattle that is capable of handling a WDH I recommend the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 2" Trailer Hitches # RM-061.

  • Will I Be Able to Use the Alignment Collar for Shifts&Grins Bike Rack for 4 Bikes on Honda Odyssey?
    Hello Andrew, Great question. By not using the collar on the Benton Shifts&Grins Bike Rack for 4 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Wheel or Frame Mount # B82FR, you may notice a little extra noise from the rattle, but the rack will still be stable to use. You could also add the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 2" Trailer Hitches # RM-061 to help reduce the rattle, it doesn’t have a knob that would be in the way.

  • What Anti-Rattle Device Can I Use with My Recessed EcoHitch?
    Hello CB, I do have a anti-rattle device that will work with your EcoHitch Invisi Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 306-X7211, it is the Anti-Rattle Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 2" Hitches - 3-1/2" Span # 63232. What I really like about the # 63232 is that it is also a lock. Less noise, and keeps your belongings protected, that is a win-win in my book! It will only work if your accessory has a hallow shank. If the shank is not hallow, then the Roadmaster Quiet...
