• Recommended Adapter for Carrying E-Bikes and Towing Trailer With Jeep Grand Cherokee
  The reason you don't want to use the Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter, 2" or 10" Drop/Rise # RM-077-10 for towing a trailer is because it was designed for flat towing a vehicle. This exerts force in different ways when compared to a trailer. However, there is a solution. I recommend using the Replacement Shank for Gen-Y Adjustable Ball Mount - 2" Hitch - 10" Drop/Rise - 10K Item # 325-GH-305. This has a gross towing weight of 10,000 lbs and max tongue weight of 1,500 lbs which exceeds...

• How Much Does Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter Weigh
  The Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter # RM-077-10 weights 29 lbs. This is designed for flat towing so if you plan to carry a bike rack and cargo carrier at the same time your hitch capacity will be reduced by 50%. This will be the case for all adapters like the Roadmaster. For an option that will not reduce the capacity of your hitch by 50% I recommend the Replacement Shank for Gen-Y Adjustable Ball Mount # 325-GH-305.

• Recommended Hitch Receiver Reducer for 2-1/2 Hitch
  I believe you are talking about the Hollywood Racks Hitch Receiver Reducer # HRHA-2. This is specifically designed to use with a Hollywood Bike Rack like the # HR1400Z.

• Can Gen-Y Phantom X Ball Mount Be Used For Carrying Bike Rack
  As long as you do not exceed the tongue weight capacity of the # GY87VR it could handle your bike and bike rack. This has a tongue weight capacity of 700 lbs so it won't be a problem. However, if you think you might tow your popup camper and also carry the bike rack I would get the Replacement Shank for Gen-Y Adjustable Ball Mount # 325-GH-504 or # 325-GH-305 instead. These are incredibly sturdy with a high capacity that can handle just about anything.

• How to Carry Bike Rack and Flat Tow Vehicle with 10 INch Riser Adapter
  I do have a solution for you, however I do not recommend using the Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver # RM-077-10 in conjunction with the High-Low Adapter # RM-048-10 that you already have. Using an adapter with another adapter like this will cause a really unstable connection and essentially reduce the weight capacity of your RV's hitch to an unknown number. A better solution for what you are looking to do is with the Gen-Y Adjustable Ball Mount # 325-GH-515 (or for just the shank part #...

• Hitch Adapter Needed For A 2023 Subaru Outback Touring
  Hey Greg, The style of hitch adapters you were looking at are either for flat towing use only or would reduce the tongue weight capacity of the hitch by 50% so the best option to retain your capacity and still meet your rise and extension requirements would be to use a stacked receiver like the Gen-Y # 325-GH-305. I drew up a diagram showing the extension and spacing from receiver to receiver so you can get a better idea if this would work. If you could give me some more details on what...

• Bike Rack Compatibility with Motorhome While Flat Towing a 2015 Kia Soul
  The Swagman Dispatch 2 Bike Platform Rack - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # S44FR will be about 33 inches from the hitch pin hole to the farthest point of the rack. You will need to measure your tow bar to see how much actual clearance that will give you for turning clearance. This rack does have a shank rise of 6-1/4 inches, so that will possibly help with hood clearance as well. I recommend using a shank like the Replacement Shank for Gen-Y Adjustable Ball Mount - 2" Hitch - 10" Drop/Rise...

• Can Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter Be Used for Cargo Carrier While Flat Towing
  Yes, the Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter # RM-077-6 is designed with this exact type of situation in mind! If you don't already have a cargo carrier I recommend using the Flint Hill Goods # FHG27ZR as it has an aluminum construction which means it does a great job at resisting rust and corrosion plus it's also very lightweight (it only weighs in at 29 lbs). You won't want to add an extension to this adapter or the tow bar as that would then add too many moving parts and make the...

  Due to the somewhat odd shape of the Gen-Y Rebel Ball Mount # GY62FR, the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch # RM-061 will not be able to keep a bike rack from moving around once installed. However, I do need to mention that Gen-Y does not recommend using non-Gen-Y accessories in the Rebel.

• Dual Hitch Adapter for Bike Rack With E-Bikes on 2019 Ram 1500 Classic Towing 2024 Aliner Classic
  I would say throw a hitch on the trailer and then add the bike rack but none of the racks with a high enough capacity are rated for a travel trailer. For a hitch adapter I recommend using the Gen-Y stacked receivers like the # 325-GH-305. Unlike normal adapters this will not cut your hitch capacity in half. It also gives you good options for rise to clear your trailer jack and propane. I'm not totally sure what clearance you need without trying it or taking measurements but I can help...

• Does Gen-Y Make Weight Distribution Shank
  I wouldn't recommend using the Replacement Shank for Gen-Y Adjustable Ball Mount # 325-GH-305 with a weight distribution system. Since you'd be adding basically a hitch adapter to the setup you'd be cutting the capacity of the hitch in half. Gen-Y does have a cushioned weight distribution shank with the part # GY54FR which can do a rise or drop of 6-1/2 inch and fits a 2 inch hitch.
