The Low-Down on the Malone 2" Dual Purpose Hitch Receiver Video

Since the front of the vehicle will be raised off the ground slightly you wouldn't want to a hitch at the rear of the vehicle since that would angle the rack down and possibly drag the bikes. Best option would be to go with an adapter like the…

Thanks for reaching out, Jim. After looking at your pictures, it looks like the Roadmaster Rollaway Trailer Hitch Protector #RM-050 will not work with the Roadmaster spare tire carrier. Like you said the clearance looks very tight and the pin hole…

I have a solution that will allow you to raise the height of the whole bike rack for better ground clearance when you have bikes loaded. If your trailer hitch has a 1-1/4 inch receiver you can use adapter #HT5R. If it has a 2 inch receiver you can…

What you described is one of the downsides of using a hitch extender like the #HTAD. It adds a bunch of movement to the hitch. If the bike rack has a standard hollow shank with a non-threaded hitch pin you could use the part #63232 for that portion…

Minus the packaging, the Reese #63153 24 x 60 Cargo Carrier weighs right at 55 lbs. The carrier has a 500 lb capacity and an angled shank that provides an additional 2-1/2 inches of ground clearance. If you click the provided link, you can see a…

Because there isn't tongue weight like you mentioned you can use a hitch extension like the #e48YR with your dual hitch adapter so that you have the needed clearance.

I have a single motorcycle carrier for my KX450. Between my bike and the carrier their dead weight is about 315lbs, but my tongue weight is more than that since the bike sits farther out from the hitch receiver. With bumps and hills on the road that…

When we installed the Curt Receiver #C38JR we measured the inside height of the receiver at 12" where the Draw-Tite Receiver #DT79GR measured at 11-1/2". The Adapter #C26FV you found is only rated for use with tow bars as it was not…

Hey Mike, so we have hitch extenders that can be used when towing a trailer like the Malone part #MPG544 but the Roadmaster adapter you mentioned is not one that can be used when towing. With that said your trailer would need to weigh under 4,000 lbs…

Basically, in any state in the union, if the rear license plate or lights are obscured in any way, a police officer can pull you over, regardless of the specific verbiage of the laws. Beyond that it is just a good idea to add lights for safey. For…

I have another option for you, but you are correct that there are not any custom fit front mount trailer hitch receivers confirmed to fit your 1999 Fleetwood Bounder Class A Motorhome built on the Ford F-53 Chassis, but that doesn't mean one…

The replacement arm part #753-3579 is exactly what you need. This will convert your older Thule T2 bike rack to allow it to be used with the 29 inch wheel you have now.
