Hitch Adapter 1-1/4" to 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2021 Volvo XC60

Question:

I have a unique swing style 1-1/4 hitch and a 2 male end Kuat 2.o. Im trying to find the best and most minimal adapter for 1-1/4 to 2 but NOT an extender. This has been extremely hard.

Anything that will adapt from a 1-1/4" hitch to mate with a 2" accessory will also extend the mounting point to some degree. I suggest the Hitch Adapter 1-1/4" to 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver, # 80303 as this is the shortest option available. This will extend the hitch pin out 6" from current but will allow you to use 2" accessories with your 1-1/4" hitch. Please note that use of this, or any other similar adapter, will reduce the hitches max weight capacity by half.
