Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2018 Toyota RAV4 for Bike Rack
Updated 05/12/2020 | Published 05/08/2020 >
Question:
Want a hitch for a 2018 RAV4 compatible with bike rack that I previously used with a factory installed hitch on a 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The rack has a 4 male . Will any of your hitches fit the rack? It looks like they only go up to 2

Expert Reply:
For your 2018 Toyota RAV4, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C13406. This is the same size hitch receiver as anything that fits the 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee so if your bike rack fit your Jeep it will fit this receiver as well. The hitch pin hole will be 3 inches recessed from the outer bumper on your RAV4 so even if you have a folding bike rack it will fit well.
I've linked the page to all the hitch fits for both vehicles to help. There is not a 4 inch hitch receiver made by any major manufacturer so I am very confident that it is a misunderstanding, and this hitch will work well for you.
