Question:
Can the etrailer anti rattle clamp E38FV be used with the etrailer 2inch to 1-1/4inch reducer adapter that is 7" long?

Expert Reply:
Yes Stevin, you can use a 2" to 1-1/4" reducer / extension adapter such as Hitch Adapter 2" to 1-1/4" Trailer Hitch Receiver - 7" Long # 80300 with the etrailer Anti-Rattle Hitch Collar # e38FV.
The only time you'll maybe have an issue is if you're using a very short adapter, such as adapters shorter than 4", in which case you'll need to make sure the adapter's 2" section protrudes outside the vehicle's receiver at least 1/2". As you can see in the attached picture, the # 80300 has plenty of clearance, as do most adapters on the market.
Good luck on your towing adventures, let me know how you like this setup by replying below if you end up going with it!
