Will The Mount N Lock RV Bumper Hitch Work On A 2022 Jayco Jay Flight

Question:

Will this work with a Saris SuperClamp EX Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4inch and 2inch Hitches - Wheel Mount? Will it mount to a to mount it on the rear bumper of a 2022 JAYCO JAY FLIGHT SLX 195RB? The combined weight of the bike rack and the bikes is about 135lbs, wondering if the bumper can handle that weight. Thank you for any advice you may have.

The Mount-n-Lock ShakeStopper for 6" RV Bumpers - 2" Hitch Receiver - 400 lbs # MO64VR will work work like a standard 2 inch hitch receiver when it comes to accessories.

It has a 400 pound limit but that will mostly likely exceed your bumpers weight capacity and you will need to contact the manufacturer and give them your VIN to confirm the actual weight capacity of your bumper.

If you have a 4 inch bumper you can use the Mount-n-Lock SafetyStruts Universal RV Bumper Support Brackets - 4" to 4-1/2" # MO34VR to increase the capacity of your bumper. So as long as your bumper can handle the weight you will be in the clear.

To lock this the easiest option would be to replace the Coupling Bolts (shown below, threaded into Coupling Nut) with tamper-resistant bolts (further below). If the coupling bolts can’t be removed, the hitch can’t be removed. You will want a Grade 5 equivalent (120,000 psi tensile strength).
