Helpful Expert Reply:
Trailer hitch receivers on passenger vehicles come in 1-1/4 inch, 2 inch, and 2-1/2 inch. Make sure you are measuring the width of the receiver opening, not the outside width. If it turns out you have a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening then you would need adapter # HTAD.
Please note that the use of an adapter will reduce the tongue weight capacity of the trailer hitch by 50 percent.
