Will the Yakima Enclosed Cargo Carrier Work with a Motorhome?

Question:

Can I use this behind my Ram Promaster class b Motorhome? I have a 2” hitch. If not, which hitch cargo carrier can? Thanks.

I have a great solution for you. Unfortunately, manufacturers do not test or confirm their carriers will work with motorhomes. However, with that being said, many of our customers have used the Yakima EXO Swing Away Enclosed Cargo Carrier - 2" Hitches - 10 cu ft - 100 lbs # Y62VR on their RVs and Motorhomes. I do not think you will have any issue if you follow the maximum load capacities of your hitch and the Yakima EXO (100 pounds), but I wanted to make sure that you were aware that the manufacturer has not tested the carrier on your RAM Promaster Class B.

If you wish for me to get you the maximum weight capacity for your trailer hitch receiver, I would be happy to provide that information to you if you provide the make and model of hitch.

@DeeA There is not to my knowledge, but for an enclosed cargo carrier you could always use the 24x84 etrailer Enclosed Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper # e94VV. This carrier has a 440 lb capacity with the enclosure, 500 lbs without the enclosure, and will work with 4" x 4" and 4-1/2" wide x 4" high RV bumpers.

@BryceD Thanks for the quick response. Looking for a cargo box with swing hitch. I like the ease that you can attach/detach the Yakima product. Also like that when not in use, the hitch can be folded. Live in a hoa. Have to remain stealth.

@DeeA Yeah I get that, Dee, but unfortunately the Yakima systems are not rated for use on a motorhome.
