Trailer Hitch and Bike Rack for a 2005 Keystone Montana 3400RL Fifth Wheel

Question:

Hi, We have a 2005 Keystone Montana 3400RL 5th wheel RV. This RV did not come with a receiver hitch frame mounted on the back end. This RV does not have a rear bumper either. I need to know what receiver style hitch I need to bolt on to carry a bike rack for 2 bicycles. I have a bike carrier that has a 2inch receiver. Thanks

Hopefully your bike rack is rated for use at the rear of an RV. Not all bike racks are designed for the rougher ride at the rear of a trailer. But for a hitch the most popular option is the # 13703 as it can basically fit any trailer frame design as long as it is between 22 and 72 inches in width.

Curt requires the use of their stabilizer strap part # 18050 when using their hitch to carry a non-supported load like a bike rack. I attached a review video for you to check for the strap as well.

The Swagman Bike Rack part # S64663 is a very popular option that would work well at the rear of an RV as it was designed for this application.
