Question:
Hello, Im planning a new bike rack system for my car. I would like to go with a Kuat Serpa 2.0 bike rack mounted to a Curt 2 Hitch #13465. I dont have the hitch installed, so I cant take measurements to verify proper rack to bumper spacing. Can you confirm or provide any information if a Kuat Serpa 2.0 rack will work with a 2010 Dodge Challenger SXT, V6, single exhaust? Thank You

I have a solution for you but the Curt Trailer Hitch item # 13465 will not give you enough clearance to mount the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes item # SH22B. The hitch pin hole sits too far underneath your car when installed.
Instead you will want the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch item # 76145. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Challenger with included hardware. The hitch pin hole sits 6" from the edge of your bumper and the closest part of the Sherpa 2.0 when folded up is 7-1/2" from the hitch pin hole.
The Sherpa 2.0 for 2" trailer hitches comes in three different colors:
- Gray item # SH22G
- Pearl item # SH22P
- Black item # SH22B
I have added a couple of pictures that will show you what this hitch looks like installed on a Charger along with an installation video.
If you are ever planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # C55534 and a ball mount kit item # C45534.
