Recommended Front and Rear Mount Hitch for a 25 Passenger E-450 Shuttle Bus
Question:
Hi, I am looking for a front and back hitch for a 25 passenger e-450 shuttle bus. Can you recommend one? I am trying to carry as many bikes as possible. Thanks,

I am not sure what year the chassis is but if it's anywhere between 1991-2007 then you can use the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 33055 which is a fit for a E-450 Cutaway Chassis. Then for the rear, you wouldn't have any direct bolt-on options but the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Service Body Trailer Hitch part # 41990-16 could be welded-on or bolted once drilled.
The most amount of bikes we offer for a single rack is six, the Yakima HangOver 6 Bike Rack part # Y02485 which would be used on the rear. The Yakima RidgeBack 5 Bike Rack part # Y02459 would then work for the front for an additional five bikes.
