Bike Rack Recommendation for Ram Truck and Rear of Travel Trailer
Question:
I am looking for a 2 bike carrier that will fit both my Ram 2500 pickup and a 30 ft. Sunnybrook Travel Trailer. I dont want to spend more than the cost of the bikes for a carrier, but need something that will hold up. Also, the Ram has a 2.5inch receiver. Thanks

You will need a bike rack confirmed to fit the rougher ride quality found at the rear of a trailer. The most popular option would be the Swagman Platform part # S64663 which is designed to fit a 2 inch hitch but with a 2 to 2-1/2 inch hitch adapter like part # C45405 that rack could also fit a 2-1/2 inch hitch.
This rack has a ton of great reviews from our customers because of how well it is constructed and how easy it is to use. I attached a review video for you to check out as well.
