Clearance for the 20x48 Folding Cargo Carrier when in the Folded Position

Published 02/09/2009

Question:

When this carrier is folded up, how much room is there from the back edge to the vehicle. What I am trying to determine is, we have a Class C Motorhome which has the spare tire on the backside. Will this carrier clear the tire when it is folded up. Thank you so very much. Debbie

When the 20x48 Folding Cargo Carrier For 2 Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 6502 - is folded up, you will have 7-1/2 inches of clearance from the center of the pin hole on your receiver to the edge of the carrier closest to your vehicle. Simply measure rearward 7-1/2 inches from your receiver hitch pin hole to see if this distance will clear your spare tire.
