Hi Will!
The Kuat Piston ION E-Bike Platform Rack for 2 Bikes w/ Ramp - 2" Hitches - Sandy Black # KU89SR will fit any 2" receiver, but you do want to be aware of the tongue weight capacity of that hitch. Class 3,4, and 5 hitches are fine and you are good to go, but there are some Class 2 hitches with 2" receivers as well.
These will typically have 200 pounds of tongue weight capacity and can be used with this rack, but with the rack weighing 68 pounds, you will only have 132 pounds available for the bikes. This is still a lot of carrying capacity, but I also figured I would mention it.
What vehicle are you wanting to use this with? And how much do your bikes weigh?

Hey Will, how did things go with the Kuat Piston ION rack and your hitch setup? Were you able to confirm the hitch class and tongue weight for your vehicle? Your update could make it easier for others checking fit for their own racks.
