Platform Bike Rack Fit for Draw-Tite 65063 Front Mount Receiver-2017 Ram 2500
Question:
I have been looking at Swagman XC 2 and saw a QandA for the Swagman S64663 recommending this for a front hitch on a Chevy truck because it is RV approved.inch I like the fact the mast is lower 32 1/4inch vs 36 3/4 for better visibility. Would this be a good choice for my Ram 2500 using a Draw-tite 65063 front hitch? Im looking for the lowest height rack for best visibility.

Expert Reply:
Because the shank doesn't have a rise, the Swagman XC, part # S64663 would actually really be a good choice for use in a front receiver on your 2017 Ram 2500. The Draw-Tite # 65063 is a fit for your truck, and would work very well with the Swagman XC # S64663 bike rack.
I've linked you to a product demonstration video for the bike rack, as well as to an installation video for the front mounted receiver.
