Can the Rola Tilting Cargo Carrier 59110 Be Upgraded to a Swing Away Carrier

Published 11/10/2014

Question:

I have the tilting assembly 59110. I am confused why I cannot order a swinging part and just remove the cargo carrier from the tilting assembly brackets and attach it to this swinging assembly brackets. And then just discard the metal tilting assembly. One of your answers stated that this would not work. Thank you.

I have looked into this before and determined that the mounting brackets for the box of the cargo carrier that tilts are totally different than the brackets of the swing away carrier so what you are trying to do is unfortunately not possible.

Your only option would be to go with a different carrier like the Yakima EXO Swing Away Enclosed Cargo Carrier - 2" Hitches # Y62VR and maybe try selling the tilting carrier 59110 that you have.
