Does The Curt Cargo Carrier # C18151 Flop Around Behind the Vehicle?
Question:
Are these carriers solid and rigid or do they bend and flop around?
asked by: Michael
Expert Reply:
The 20x59 Curt Cargo Carrier # C18151 will have some play due to the fact it has the ability to fold up. Since it uses a simple hitch pin at the hinge it does allow for some play here which allows for movement on the basket. Also the shank which fits into your receiver will allow for some play as well unless you install an Anti-Rattle # 63232 into the shank.
For a more solid carrier you would want the Curt # C18150 with an Anti-Rattle # 63232. This carrier is the same 20x59 without the folding feature. This will eliminate the amount of play from your vehicle to the receiver.
