The cargo bag I highly recommend for your Pro Series Cargo Carrier # 63153 is the etrailer Cargo Bag # 988501. It has 20 cubic feet of storage, is waterproof with PVC coated nylon, and has six tie-down straps that will secure it to your Pro Series Cargo Carrier. If you take a look at the photos I've added you can see exactly how this bag looks when used with the Pro Series.

I've also attached links to video reviews of this bag for you to take a look at.

The Curt Cargo Carrier # C18152 and Pro Series Cargo Carrier # 63153 are alike in virtually every way, but I recommend the Pro Series # 63153 for a couple reasons. It is a bit lighter than the Curt, and also offers a little more distance from the edge of your hitch to the carrier - room which can be invaluable if you have a rear hatch that needs opening with the cargo still on the carrier. Another reason is that it comes with built-in spots to attach the LED lights from LED Light Kit for Cargo Carriers # 98174LED, which you are going to need if you have a large cargo bag such as # 988501 filled with gear. I would also strongly recommend you use Anti-Rattle Lock # 63232 with your cargo carrier not only to secure the carrier, but to create a quieter ride when it is attached. I've attached links to video reviews of these products for you to take a look at as well.

Hey Mark, you can go with a slightly wider cargo bag than your carrier and it will be just fine. You'd just need to strap the bag down and take up the extra material which wouldn't even be that much different than a bag that is exact same…

Hey Fred, thanks for reaching out. Yes, you are good. The #e67RV light kit will work fine with the 22x60 Flint Hill Goods Cargo Carrier #FHG49ZR. The light kit will work on really any cargo carrier with square rails. What will you be hauling on the…

I do have a solution for you, but the 24x60 etrailer Cargo Carrier #e98874 is not designed to be used on the back of an RV. Generally speaking, folding carriers are not ideal because they do not stand up too well to the extra stress exerted by the…

The 24x60 Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches, part #C18152, and the 24x60 Reese Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches, part #63153, are extremely similar. In fact, in terms of the specs that you mentioned, neither stands above the other. I only…

There is a pretty big difference between the Pro Series cargo carrier part #63153 and the Curt part #C18151 that you referenced. The Curt can fold up when not in use and the Pro Series is fixed meaning it can not fold. The folding feature is nice,…
