Astonishingly great service from Etrailer. I had an issue where an order I had placed wouldn't be delivered on time. Martha O took great care of me, and worked wonders to change my order speed. To top this, the price and quality of the products Etrailer sells is unbeatable.



by:

easy install well made!



by:

Really disappointed in this kit. The rubber grommets do not fit in the metal. They're way too loose - they just fall right out and no way to secure them properly without perhaps a liberal application of silicon.

But even if that worked, it's wired backwards. One side has a much longer cord length (instead of being equal) so I can't reach my 4-pin plugin on my hitch for either vehicle.



by:

First I have to say that I am very pleased with your customer service, specificly Roger ext 79340 and George. George alerted me that one of the items had a longer lead time than I was expecting. When I called Roger helped me change my order slightly so that I would get all the items that I needed within my planned schedule. As I am heading out on a fishing trip. All parts came in on time, and everything installed very easy. Thank you very much for helping to make the last few days a little less stressful.



by:

Overall, the assembly and installation is very straight forward and simple. However, the fit of the lights and grommets into the brackets is very loose. I actually used an adhesive to secure the grommets to the bracket to prevent them from potentially rattling loose during travel. Overall, decent, but maybe not worth the current price point ($xx.xx).

Another good experience with etrailer

  • Folding Cargo Carrier And Cargo Bag For 2014 Toyota 4Runner
    The first thing you will want to do is measure to see how much clearance you have at the rear of your 2014 Toyota 4Runner. I have attached a helpful article that shows you how to take this measurement. The article says it is for bike racks but the same principal applies for hitch-mounted carriers. I recommend the etrailer Cargo Carrier, part # e98874. This carrier fits 2 inch hitch receivers and measures 24 X 60, which is one of the largest cargo carriers we offer. This carrier has a shank...

  • Recommended Cargo Carrier and Light Kit for a 2016 Honda Odyssey
    The 23x60 Curt Cargo Carrier part # C18151 would be an excellent option for the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 76025 on a 2016 Honda Odyssey. There would be no clearance issues in either the stored or in-use position so no worries here. In order to add lights, the etrailer.com License Plate and LED Tail Light Mounting Kit part # e98943-44LED is a direct fit for the 23x60 Curt Cargo Carrier and you can use the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector...

  • Recommended Cargo Hitch Carrier for a 2014 Ford Escape
    I have two different recommendations for a hitch cargo carrier that should sit above the exhaust on your 2014 Ford Escape. I recommnd the etrailer Carrier, part # e98874. This is a 500 lbs carrier that is folding and has a 2 inch rise. This carrier has a 19-1/2 inch distance from the hitch pin hole to the closest edge of the carrier when in use, so this might help with your exhaust issue. It also has a tilting option when loaded. Since none of our cargo carriers come with lights pre-installed,...

  • Would Bikes and Swagman RV Bumper Bike Rack Obstruct Vision of Tail Lights on RV
    It would be illegal if the tail lights of your RV were completely obstructed. However, you should check with your state Department of Motor Vehicles for details. There is a good chance your tail lights would shine through the spokes of the wheel allowing them to be visible, and therefore safe and legal. I recommend testing the tail lights with the bike rack in place to see if the tail lights are visible while the bike is in the simulated mounting location. If they are obstructed significantly...

  • etrailer.com Cargo Carrier Basket Light Kit Availability
    Yes we do! You will want to go with the etrailer.com Light Kit, # e98943-44, or the I recommend going with the LED version, # e98943-44LED, which will be much brighter and sharper and are easier on your tow package wiring. I attached a video of these lights for you to check out.

  • Recommended Railed Cargo Carrier for 2005 GMC Envoy XL
    I recommend the 24x60 Folding Cargo Carrier, part number # e98874. The large size and folding ability make this carrier a great option. Where are your reverse lights located? If they are on the the corner of the vehicle, they most likely will not be obscured by the carrier. If they are on the liftgate, they probably will be. You would experience this issue with any cargo carrier, especially once it is loaded. We offer a Cargo Carrier Light Kit, part number # e98943-44LED that you...

  • Is the License Plate and LED Tail Light Mounting Kit Compatible with the etrailer Cargo Carrier?
    I have a great alternative for you. Unfortunately, the etrailer License Plate and LED Tail Light Mounting Kit for Hitch Mounted Cargo Carrier # e98943-44LED will not fit the 20x48 etrailer Off Road Cargo Carrier. However, given that the construction of the etrailer Off Road Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches is made of steel, there is a possibility that tail lights with magnetic mounts will work with the carrier. For this option, I recommend the Hopkins Magnetic Tow Lights # C6304. For the best...

  • Recommendations For Hitch-Mounted Cargo Carrier And Cargo Bag
    The Curt Cargo Carrier, part # e98874, you referenced is a 24 x 60 inch carrier that is designed to work with 2 inch hitches. This carrier has a shank with a 2 inch rise and a weight capacity of 500 lbs. If you will be placing any cargo in the carrier that would block the view of your tail lights from vehicles behind you a tail light kit is required. I recommend light kit for this carrier is part # e98943-44LED. This is a no-drill installation and connects right to the rails of the # e98874....

  • Will a 24 By 48 inch Box Fit in the 24x60 Cargo Carrier For 2 inch Trailer Hitches
    Your box should fit as long as it is no wider than 24 inches, which is the inside width of this carrier. The distance from the start of the corner on these carriers is 61-1/2 inches so there will be plenty of length along the front and back for your 48 inch long box to fit inside. The total inside width is 60 inches. Weight capacity is 500 pounds. Please check the tongue weight of your vehicle. You must go with the lowest limit. You may also want to consider a cargo carrier light kit...

    Yes, the oval lights included in the Rola LED Light Kit for Railed Cargo Carriers 59516 will fit into light mounting bracket # BK70BB using the grommets include with the light kit.

  • Is the Cargo Carrier Light Kit Required for Use with a Surco Carrier on a 2009 Toyota Highlander
    You do not have to install the Cargo Carrier Light Kit # e98943-44LED on the 24x60 Folding Cargo Carrier # e98874 in order for it to be used on your 2009 Toyota Highlander Hybrid. It is a judgment call, if you think that the cargo carrier would not block the view of your tail lights then I would not worry about it. Otherwise I would recommend you get it. I would also recommend you check your local laws and regulations to determine if there is a legal requirement for you to have a light...

  • Wiring Harness Connections for Cargo Carrier
    The etrailer License Plate and LED Tail Light Mounting Kit for Hitch Mounted Cargo Carrier # e98943-44LED will have brackets that are flush with the carrier and the lights will stick out slightly which is common with other light kits as well. The wiring harness like you are referring to will look almost identical as well. The harness will do the same thing. If you want more clearance on the back side you would need to splice in the 90 degree connectors # A47PB which will make the interference...

  • Will The 24x60 Cargo Carrier E98874 Block the Tail Lights on a 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe
    The 24x60 etrailer.com Cargo Carrier part # E98874 is not too wide for your 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe. However, I believe what you may be concerned with is the cargo carrier blocking the tail lights while folded up. If that is the case then what you will want to do is measure outward 30" from the center of the trailer hitch. That will give you a good idea of where the edge of the basket will sit that way you can see if your tail light will be visible. The other option you have is to install...

  • Cargo Carrier with Bike Carrying Adapter for 2010 Mitsubishi Endeavor
    If you were to go with the cargo carrier, part # CC-100, an adapter is available that would allow you to carry two bikes. The adapter is part # CC-125 and has only been tested with the # CC-100 cargo carrier, although it would likely work with other carriers with the wire mesh floor. It would attach to the cargo carrier as outlined in the instructions which I will link you to. All necessary assembly hardware and straps for fastening the bikes is included. This option would limit you to...

  • Recommended Hitch-Mounted Cargo Carrier and Bag for 2017 Ford Explorer
    The etrailer Cargo Carrier # e98874 referenced in your question is a great choice for the 2 inch trailer hitch on your 2017 Ford Explorer. This carrier will provide you with inside/usable dimensions of 60 inches wide, 24 inches deep, and 5-1/2 inches tall. As you mentioned, the carrier can easily fold up toward the rear of your Explorer when not in use. It also tilts away from your vehicle, even when loaded, so you can get to your back doors. I have attached a short video demonstration...

  • Folding Cargo Carrier for 2010 Chevy Traverse
    Unfortunately, Rola doesn't make a folding version of the # 59502 and an adapter is not an option for it. The etrailer Folding Cargo Carrier, part # e98874 will fit your vehicle if the hitch pin hole to rear of bumper measurement is less than 9-1\2 inches. The # e98943-44LED light kit can be added to that carrier, and I think you would be happy with their oval appearance. I've linked you to some product demonstration videos that you might find helpful.

    I can help you find a hitch cargo basket and weatherproof bag for your 2001 Chrysler Town and Country.

    We have actually installed the Curt Trailer Hitch, # 13581, on a 2007 Mitsubishi Outlander. When installed, our team of installers measured the distance from the hitch pin hole center to the rear edge of the bumper to be approximately 2 inches (see video). When folded up, the etrailer Cargo Carrier, # e98874, measures 9-1/2 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the nearest edge of the carrier. That would leave plenty of clearance between the vehicle and carrier when folded. ...

  • Cargo Carrier for Volvo XC90 with Long Angled Shank to Clear Exhaust
    It sounds like a cargo carrier with an angled shank would be the best choice in your situation. An angled shank would raise the cargo carrier anywhere from 2 to 3 inches above the receiver opening, and would place the carrier further above your exhaust outlets. The etrailer Cargo Carrier, part # e98874 is a great looking carrier that measures 24 x 60. The angled shank would place the basket 19-1/2 inches rearward of the hitch pin hole in the receiver and would raise the carrier up 2 inches....

Measure from the center of the hitch pin hole on your hitch out to the farthest point of your rear bumper.
