Install Kuat Sherpa Bike Rack on Draw-Tite Hitch With Two Pin Holes
Question:
It looks like there are two holes into which to fit the hitch pin for my Kuat Sherpa 2.0 bike rack. The first hole is smaller than the second. I pushed the bike rack in just far enough to put the hitch pin into the first, smaller hole. Was this correct? Can the second larger hole be used to put the bike rack closer to the vehicle, or is that hole for larger Diameter hitch pins?

Expert Reply:
The larger hole on Draw-Tite hitches is intended to be used for securing your hitch mounted accessory. The smaller hole Is not used. Even though the pin of your Kuat Sherpa # SH22G will fit Into the hole it is not advised to secure any accessory with the smaller hole.
