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

Expert Reply:
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.
