1-1/4 inch to 2 inch Hitch Adapter Recommendation for a Toyota Prius
Updated 03/31/2016 | Published 03/29/2016 >
Question:
I need the shortest 1 1/4inch to 2inch adapter possible. I have a rack that has a 2inch square beam to be used on a Prius that has a 1 1/4inch receiver. What is the shortest you offer so the thing is no hanging way out there? Thanks!

The Brophy part # HTAD is going to be the best solution we have. This is 7-1/4 inches long and is Class I hitch compatible. You should note that these adapters cut the capacity of the hitch they are installed in by 50 percent. I attached a review video that shows this adapter being used in a similar Prius as yours.
