Just what I was looking for. Wanted to carry a small Honda generator and skinny gas can. I tilted the "Y" shaped security bar away from the vehicle by putting more washer between it and the carrier. That moved the generator enough to fit in the skinny gas can.
by: Dave 03/29/2024
Very good quality for different types of generators. Again, I would’ve gave it five stars if it wasn’t for the price. But it is very well quality.

Hello. The unit fits great. I installed it on the front hitch mount of my 2000 GMC K3500. I’m using it with the Craftsman 2500 generator using the top slot. The unit allows me to permanently install the generator out front and keep it secure. I have a campsite truck camper that does not have an onboard generator. The TorkLift lock and load was a great solution. I added a set of turnbuckles for a nice snug fit while traveling down the road.

The product came in a timely manner and everything went together perfectly. I’m using the tray to carry a Champion 2000 dual fuel inverter generator (see picture) and also purchased the Yakima swing hitch to incorporate in the set up. The generator is being used to power a portable 200 square foot Hisense A/C. I ran the truck down the highway and everything is solid. The only complaint I have is that there was a minor 1” mar inside the tray probably caused by other parts rubbing against the tray during shipping but wasn’t that big a deal to knock the rating down to 4 stars.
by: David05/14/2023
If you own one of the listed generators this maybe the perfect tray. If not and I did not you may have to make some minor modifications I did. The only issue I had was with the generator locked in place I could not plug in the RV as the front up right bracket was in the way. Since that bracket has holes in it, I simply enlarged the hole until my cable fit. Awesome gen tray I highly recommend it.

The Torklift fits the Honda EU 2000i perfectly and is great to be on the outside of my Class B van and avoid any gas fumes inside the cabin. Packaging was not as good as a good as ot should have been, however, the packaging areived in good condition. There was some of the fonish and a large corner scrape on the Torklift frane (heaviest part) and my guess was it was dmaged before packaging. Instead of returning it, I touched ip the finish to avoid andy rist issues down the road, but I would expect better handling and damage control from the seller, otherwise I would give the item 5 stars.

A few suggestions for TL:
Some of the parts appear to be useful only when using the Sidekick with a Spacedock on a Palomino truck camper bumper. It's a waste to include them for those of us with different applications.
The ability to mount the license plate bracket included with the Ecohitch front hitch would be nice.
A visual indicator such as the one included on the larger Lock and Load would be nice in order to avoid collisions.
A way to keep the adjustable strap from dropping to the ground when removing the top bar would be also be nice.
The rattle from the lock is horrible with the generator running in place. The Etrailer trick helps, but TL should do something about this. If you unlock the unit to avoid the rattle and make refueling easier, the generator can walk around until the exhaust begins burning the paint on the fixed strap. I may be fashioning a way to corral the generator feet to avoid this.

As described. Ordered the lock and load side kick, as we had no place to safely carry our honda generator in our Truck camper. The "Lock and Load Side Kick" solved that problem. It is sturdy, holds generator tightly and will not vibrate around. Sturdy heavy duty lock prevents theft. Good quality, solid construction. We mounted a reciever under the bumper of our truck camper, now we can take the generator only when we need to and remove the carrier when not in use.
by: Dennis07/30/2019
It’s solidly built and very easy to assemble. However, the tray is too large for this generator. With the generator mounted there is 4” inches of space in front of and in back of it. They provide security bolts on the tray, but the generator doesn’t even cover them. Unscrew 4 nuts and bolts, and you can steal the generator. I’m chaining mine to the bumper. I have no doubt it will hold the generator securely on the road; but the tray is so oversized that if you grab the generator by the bottom and pull it towards you, it will come out if you pull hard enough. It would damage the generator; but what thief cares about a little damage? It seems like Torklift tried to make this carrier a “one size fits many”. For security purposes it needs to be resized to footprint of the generator
by: Timothy04/07/2020
I didn’t do my homework. My 2200ie did not fit; it was a little too tall and barely fit length wise. A slight modification to the top bar allowed it to fit so it worked out. Shipping was super fast. The nuts/bolts/washers were just free floating in the box but they were all there.
by: Kumler s07/07/2016
great product. Preparing a vintage camper for a lady to travel all across the country and this is exactly what we needed for both security and convenience for her! Thanks

Excellent online store. Searched several online sites for the product I wanted and only found it at Etrailer. Excellent quality but a little pricey.

I received the sidekick and was extremely satisfied with the product. Assembly instructions were easy to follow and were comprehensive.

The generator needs to have a center handle and be no more than 16 inches wide and 21-1/4 inches long. For the height there are three different settings; 16-1/2, 17-1/4, and 18-1/2 inches. The carrier is specifically designed to hold the Yamaha 2400 Series and the Honda 2000 Series.

- Will A Predator 3500 Generator Fit The 16x21 TorkLift Lock And Load Cargo Tray?The smaller version 16x21 TorkLift Lock and Load SideKick Cargo Tray # TLA7901 has inside dimensions of 21-1/4" long, 16-1/8" wide, and 3-15/16" tall. Since your Predator 3500 generator measures 22-3/4" long and 17-1/3" wide, it will not fit. I recommend going with the larger version 24x27 TorkLift Lock and Load Maximum Security Cargo Tray # TLA7752. This has inside dimensions of 27-3/4" long, 24" wide, and 5-1/2" tall which will be plenty of room for your generator. I attached a helpful...

I like this front mount hitch over the others because it has a hidden cross tube after installation that will provide your 2022 Ford F-350 Super Duty with a clean, from the factory look. The hitch has an easy, bolt-on installation. When it comes to hauling your portable generator I recommend the 16x21 TorkLift Lock and Load SideKick Cargo Tray for 2" Hitches - 200 lbs # TLA7901...
view full answer... - Will Champion Power Equipment 200961 Fit TorkLift Lock and Load SideKick Cargo Tray for 2" HitchesYes, your Champion 200961 will fit the TorkLift Lock and Load SideKick Cargo Tray # TLA7901. The inside dimensions of the tray are 21-1/4" long x 16-1/8" wide x 3-15/16" deep. The 200961 is 17.3" long x 12" wide so it won't have any problems fitting in the tray. It also weighs 39 lbs so that is well below the 200 lb capacity of the tray. The minimum height for the strap adjustment is 16-1/2" with a maximum of 18-1/2" and your generator is 17.7" tall so it will be a perfect fit all around.

I would instead use the 24x27 TorkLift # TLA7752 which has a larger tray and an adjustable divider that will allow you to carry the generator in a manner that will allow you to plug in without interference from the upright of the carrier. It's not that the 16x21 won't...

The Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount is rated for 7,500 lbs Gross Trailer Weight (GTW) and 750 lbs of TW so it fits into your weight capacity range perfectly. I checked online and it looks like your 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 has a towing capacity of 7,100 lbs. Since a typical TW rating is 10% of the hitch towing capacity you will...

You will need to measure your Generac IQ2000 and compare it to the above in order to determine if this tray will work for you. This generator has not yet been tested with this tray so measuring will be the only way to determine fit. I have attached a review video for you as well. If it does fit then please let us know so we can update the information to reflect this.

- Can I Use a Cargo Carrier With the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver on my 2015 Ram 1500The Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # 31374, which is a confirmed fit for your 2015 Ram 1500 as long as it is a 4x4, has a Vertical Load Rating of 500 lbs. As long as that weight capacity is not exceeded then this front mount hitch will be a great solution for you to carry a generator on the front of your Ram. If you are wanting to use a cargo carrier to haul a variety of cargo, then I recommend going with the 24x60 Curt Cargo Carrier # C18151. This will fit in the 2 inch receiver...
view full answer... - Lock Recommendation for Securing Generators to Stromberg Carlson Bunk TrayBest option for locking generators to the Stromberg Carlson part # CC-255 will be a cable lock like the # e98891 which you could route through the handles of the generators and then around the platform of the bunk. The Maximum Security Strap # TLA7751 that you referenced only fits the Torklift Lock and Load SideKick # TLA7901 which is a hitch carrier.

That top bar won't stay in place without one. You could use a different padlock, but the benefit of the puck lock that's provided is that they are super-difficult to defeat.
view full answer... - Yamaha Generators That Fit TorkLift Lock and Load SideKick Cargo TrayThe Yamaha 2200iS generator is too long to fit into the TorkLift Lock and Load SideKick Cargo Tray # TLA7901. It is nearly 22 inches in length, which is longer than the 21-1/4 length of the inside of the SideKick tray. The Yamaha generators that will fit this tray are the Yamaha EF2400iSHC and Yamaha EF2000iS generators. I have added links below to a couple video reviews for you to check out as well if you'd like of the TorkLift Lock and Load SideKick Cargo Tray # TLA7901.

If this is what you have then it will work well for you. It provides a 400 lb weight capacity. In many cases, the RV manufacturer limits the weight capacity of the rear bumper too severely unless the side brackets are welded. These reinforcement brackets are a great way to increase that capacity without the need for welding. If you don't already...

If you've got a heavy duty hitch that you're wanting to carry the 16x21 TorkLift Lock and Load SideKick Cargo Tray for 2" Hitches - 200 lbs # TLA7901 on this might not be a big deal since you only need about 250-lbs, but it should be noted.

It could also be listed on the hitch on a sticker. You would need to look for a "tongue weight rating" and it would need to be higher than the weight of your generator and the hitch mounted carrier you plan to use.

Also, this adapter will provide a receiver opening that is meant to be used exclusively with the 16x21 TorkLift Lock and Load SideKick Cargo Tray for 2" Hitches # TLA7901.

For a carrier that will fit the generator on a 2-inch hitch receiver if you plan to operate the generator on the carrier, I recommend the 20x59 Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - Folding # C18151. It fits the dimensions of the Honda EU3000 and it is make of steel, so it can take the heat of the generator once it gets hot. If you are just wanting to transport the EU3000 and place...
