Question:
Hello interested in the Yakima BackSwing Swing Away Hitch Extender - but swinging to the drivers side do they make one, what is the model number for that? Also, Id like to mount an ebike rack on the Swing Away, 2inch hitch - for a 4inch tire/wheel ebike that will weight with accessories approx. 90, so having a ramp is definitely a bonus? Thanks in advance.

The Yakima BackSwing Swing Away Hitch Extender item # Y02483 is only available to swing to your passenger side. They do not make one that pivots to the driver's side.
The Kuat Pivot 2 Swing Away Hitch Extender for Bike Racks item # PVD20B is the only swing away adapter that pivots to the driver's side. It has an identical 250 lbs capacity and also fits a 2" receiver.
The highest capacity bike rack we have, that is compatible with a swing away adapter, is the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes item # HLY84FR. It is rated for bikes up to 80 lbs so you will need to remove your battery and possibly some of your other accessories. It works with tires that are up to 5" wide. It does not include a ramp but none of the bike racks that have as high of a capacity as you need that also work with a swing away extender do.
