Cargo carrier works as I needed. It is close to vehicle which can make it tight to insert receiver pin ... but that was expected. Preferred the carrier close to keep cargo weight closer to vehicle rear.
by: Paul09/11/2023
The boxes the items were shipped in were completely torn open and the hitch has paint chipped on one corner, also the carrier tray is scratched on one end

After some careful research for my choice of carrier I got the curt 49". Well built and light weight. I also appreciated the hardware which included 4 eyebolts for tie points. The unit was date stamped in July of 20. New old stock but that's beside the point of manufacture. A rubber mallet was handy for bolt hole alignment. The carrier will last for many years and a pro is that there are no plastic corners to rot in the sun. I like the look, the size and of course the eye bolts.

Received the cargo carrier and Thule offset hitch unit all in great shape with no damage from shipping. The right angle hitch piece is due here at my home on Monday.
by: Retired10/28/2023
The Curt cargo carrier is just what I was looking for and exactly as described. Light weight and solid. Shipping was fast and correct as always from etrailer.
by: Roberto 10/18/2023
It seems to be a very well made product with aluminum and a steel shaft to fit the hitch. It was super easy to assemble and I did use the torque wrench. I haven't tested it out yet but I'm hopeful!
by: Harry08/11/2023
I really like this cargo carrier. Its light weight which makes it easy to install, however the hardware is missing.

Producdt has worked great. Used it to carry many things from logs to trash can cans. The ligh weight makes it easy to installremove but remains strong for carring items

FAST SERVICE, GREAT TECHNICAL HELP WITH HOW TO DO IT YOURSELF VIDEOS AND FOLLOW UP ON PURCHASES. I WILL DEFINITELY RECOMMEND TO OTHERS AND WILL BUY FROM AGAIN. A+++++
by: Steve 09/29/2023
Trival assembly and it is indeed pretty light.
Wiggles around some, but an anti-rattle receiver lock stiffens it up nicely.
by: Jamie 07/15/2022
Just recieved this carrier yesterday, so I haven't used it yet.
It does seem to be very well built. I like that its aluminum and rusting won't be an issue.

I have been carrying my Champion 4650 watt generator and a couple gas cans on this carrier. It has been rock solid and performs exactly as I wanted it to.
by: Jamie 07/13/2023
Lightweight design makes this cargo carrier a delight to use. Only possible improvement would be to add more anchoring points.
by: Eric 02/24/2023
Works great as advertised. Fits perfectly in a Tesla Y, though you would often have to tip the out of the way to get the hatchback open when it is mounted, but given that a Y hitch is only class II (despite a 2" receptacle), more gear to avoid this is not practical (a Tesla Y hitch is really only for light loads). Also, this is why I bought this one, because it is light (aluminum) and so allows a bit more cargo. I also use it with a Curt anti-rattle hitch pin kit, which avoids left-right rattling while driving (get a "Thumb Socket Driver" if you do this, though, as the space near the hitch is pretty tight).

Light-weight and strong.

Awesome basket. Easy to install. I use it for 2 of my cars for long trips or bikes to the trails.
by: Fred 08/02/2022
OK, I have just received it and put it together but have not used it, therefore I can’t tell you how great it is. But I can’t say it looks very nice, went together easily, seems very sturdy, and should serve the purpose well for why I bought it.

Update: I e used this product several times now and it is working fine.
by: Jim 12/20/2022
Cargo carrier is well made and light weight due to aluminum construction. Things to note. Rack does scrape the ground on steep driveways but this can be fixed with a rising hitch. We use it on an Audi Q5 your height will vary. You will want to get one of the anti rattle devices to remove the slop from the hitch.
by: Jessica 12/29/2020
This cargo carrier is perfect for people who have to install it alone. It's very light weight and sturdy. It appears well constructed, aside from the reflectors that are bound to fall off. One reflector fell off straight out of the box due to plastic being attached to the sticky back of it, causing it to not stick. Some reflective tape will fix that very small issue for me. There is a little bit of sway to it, so I'll be buying a hitch tightener. The slats will make it much easier to clean, and it looks nice on my 2018 Outback. There is a lack of attachment points for tie down, other than the wide slats. If you're using rope instead of bungees, this shouldn't be an issue. Overall, I'm very happy with the quality and weight of this carrier.
by: John11/02/2021
So glad I researched carriers and found this one. Meets my needs exactly. Best features for me by far is its simplicity in construction, obvious strength/rigidity, with very high quality welds throught. Zero screws/bolts to rattle loose or catch on things. Buying on line can leads to some small 'dissapointments' however I am over the moon with this purchase.

Very sturdy yet as light weight as possible. Fit to receiver could be a tighter, has quite a bit of movement when unloaded. Will see how it rides with a load on it.

Excellent product, gets used nearly ever weekend. Hauls coolers, wild game with no problem.

Jesse M was very good to deal with very knowledgeable on the product I ordered and great at following up, the only issue I had was when it was delivered it had a large hole in the box but thankfully there was no damage to my cargo carrier
Thanks
by: Becky06/14/2023
We first used this on a trip in 2022. It was GREAT! It held many things that would not fit in our cargo space within our van. We have an upcoming trip in a few weeks and will use it again then! So happy we invested in this!
by: Phillip11/14/2022
Great cargo rack. First one was dented on arrival. etrailer sent a new one out next day. Great Customer Service.
by: Joseph V08/21/2022
As usual, etrailer is fantastic. Order was received earlier than scheduled. Only issue is the plug for the hitch mount was missing. Called up and had a replacement sent right away. Customer service is the best. I have had nothing but success ordering through etrailer over the years.
by: Terry06/04/2022
I am giving a 5 star with the fact that the product was what I expected it to be, well description and pictures on line. Easy assembling took 20 minutes with only 4 bolts. Have not yet attached to hitch with any load so in hopes that works well. Seems sturdy with the attachable hitch with expanded stress frame. Only issue is parts bag was thin and open on one end with several parts spilled out into box. Box not to bad but could have lost a part. Needless to say I was a little gitty for a moment until I found the last of all parts still in box. After the find of all parts I give a five star for this product being what I expected. Just need to have parts in thicker bag and secured to the carrier would be a big plus. Otherwise you could end up with not all parts that would make a bad day.

See what our Experts say about this CURT Hitch Cargo Carrier
- Dimensions of Curt Cargo Carrier 18113I measured the distance of the hitch pin hole to the front of the Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches # C18113 and found it was 29 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the furthest part (the front) of the carrier, as you can see in the accompanying photo. It is also 6-1/2 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the closest part of the carrier. The cargo carrier basket measures 49 inches x 22-1/2 inches and is 4 inches tall. The carrier does come with a hitch pin and is...

- Recommendations for Preventing Rust on a Trailer Hitch Mount Cargo CarrierTo my knowledge, none of the manufacturers offer cargo carriers in any finishes other than paint or powder coat. I would recommend getting this aluminum carrier # C18113.
view full answer... - Speed Rating For Cargo CarriersI am not sure why manufactures will put a speed rating on cargo carriers. For our cargo carriers, that is not the case. The Curt aluminum cargo carrier # C18113 is rated for highway speeds so there is no limitation for speed. I've included a video for you to watch and learn more about our carrier!
view full answer... - Will the Curt Cargo Carrier Work On the Back of a TrailerThe 49x22-1/2 Curt Cargo Carrier part # C18113 has a fixed shank which means unlike pivoting/folding shanks, there are very few weak points.. Therefore, it will hold up extremely well on the back of a trailer which has a much rougher ride than that on a vehicle.
view full answer... - Does Curt Cargo Carrier C18113 Have 2 Inch ReceiverThere is not a 2 inch receiver on the rear or elsewhere on the Curt Cargo Carrier # C18113. This cargo carrier only has a 2 inch shank which allows it to fit in a 2 inch hitch receiver.

view full answer... - Will Tail Gate On 2014 Jeep Wrangler Open With Curt Cargo Carrier InstalledYou can take a measurement to see if you have clearance when the Curt Cargo Carrier, part # C18113 is installed. The carrier basket outside height is about 5 inches. Since the shank portion is below the carrier, you would need to add about 2-1/2 inches so the distance from the bottom of the receiver shank to the top of the carrier rail is about 7-1/2 inches. Just measure from the bottom of the receiver opening on your Wrangler to the bottom of the gate on the back of your Jeep. If that...
view full answer... - Does the Curt Cargo Carrier for 2 Hitches Have A WarrantyThe 49x22-1/2 Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches part # C18113 does have a limited lifetime warranty. If you have an issue with one of our products we will do what we can to make it right.
view full answer... - How to Determine if Curt Cargo Carrier # C18113 Will Clear Bumper of VehicleThe distance from the center of the hitch pin to the closest edge of the Curt Cargo Carrier part # C18113 is 6 inches. You'd have to measure from the center of your hitch pin hole out to the furthest point out on the bumper to know if this will work. If you get more than 6 inches this will not fit.
view full answer... - Weight of Curt # C18113 Aluminum Cargo CarrierActually, we do list the weight of our cargo carriers. On each product page, just above the 'add to cart' button, you'll see the shipping weight listed. The shipping weight includes the product itself, plus the weight of the packaging. In most instances, the packaging weighs between 2 and 5 lbs. For instance, the # C18113 Curt Aluminum Cargo Carrier has a shipping weight of 32 lbs. Minus the packaging, it weights 25 lbs.

- Can Curt Cargo Carrier # C18113 be Used in Front Hitch of VehicleYes you could use the Curt Cargo Carrier part # C18113 in the front hitch of basically any vehicle including a Ford Econoline like you mentioned.
view full answer... - Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches C18113 DimensionsI contacted Curt and the inside dimensions of the Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches part # C18113 are 49" long x 22-1/2" wide x 4" tall. That is the usable space inside the carrier according to the tech at Curt.
view full answer... - Is There an Anti-Rattle Hitch Lock for Curt Cargo Carrier C18113Though it does not come with one, you can absolutely get a locking anti-rattle bolt for the Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches # C18113. What you will need for this is simply the Anti-Rattle Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 2" Hitches # 63232. This gives you two benefits in one; it stops the rattle of the carrier and locks it to your hitch, so this part gives you a quieter ride while also protecting the investment you made in the carrier.
view full answer... - Can Curt Aluminum Cargo Carrier be Used at Highway SpeedsYes, you can absolutely travel on the highway at highway speeds using the Curt Cargo Carrier # C18113. This is a great option for a cargo carrier because it is aluminum so it is extremely lightweight at just 25 lbs, making it much easier than other carriers to handle. It does come with a hitch pin, but you can add a lock to it and secure it to your Murano with the Anti-Rattle Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 2" Hitches # 63232. I have added a link below to a video review for you to check...
view full answer... - Can a Cargo Carrier be Used on a Bumper Mount Hitch to Carry Generators on an RVIf you plan on carrying generators I would not use a bumper mounted hitch. The fact that the bumper is rated for a bike carrier says to me that you don't want to put anything else on it. A loaded bike carrier isn't all that heavy. But a cargo carrier with generators on it can create a lot of stress. A frame mounted hitch should be used. I included a link to the frame mount RV hitches we carry. Regarding how far out the basket would be on a bumper mounted hitch it depends on the hitch....
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch and Cargo Carrier Recommendations for a 2015 Jeep RenegadeSince you want a trailer hitch mainly for a cargo carrier I recommend a Class III with a 2 inch receiver. The 2 inch trailer hitches are built more stout and thus have a higher capacity and more accessory options than smaller Class II and Class I hitches. For your 2015 Jeep Renegade I recommend Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 76021 for that exact reason. This hitch has a tongue weight capacity of 675 pounds. Tongue weight is the amount of weight pushing down on the hitch receiver. This is the...
view full answer... - Anti-Rattle Trailer Hitch Lock For A Curt Cargo CarrierYes, The SilentACT Anti-Rattle Trailer Hitch Lock # SHP2082 will help secure The 22-1/2x49 Curt Cargo Carrier # C18113. This anti-rattle lock has a tool-free installation. The pin will reduce play and vibration in the hitch connection. The anti-rattle pin has a sturdy steel construction and has a zinc finish that is corrosion resistant. I attached a review video link below.
view full answer... - Are Fixed Cargo Carriers More Stable than Folding CarriersFolding cargo carriers do add a bit of movement since the hinge assembly has some play in it. If you are looking for something larger, aluminum, and rock solid the aluminum cargo carrier part # C18113 would be a great option. Then for a hitch lock with an anti-rattle device that will hold the carrier solid the # 63232 would be a great option.
view full answer... - Cargo Carrier Recommendation for a 2013 Nissan NV that will not Interfere with the Rear DoorsMost cargo carriers will allow you to open the rear doors of your 2013 Nissan NV when they are empty. Keep in mind, the trailer hitch receiver sits below the bumper and the walls of most hitch mounted cargo carriers are typically no taller than about 6 inches. The walls of the Curt 22-1/2x49 Cargo Carrier, # C18113, that you referenced has 4-3/4 inch tall walls, but if that is too high, then you could look into a cargo carrier like the Pro Series 20x48 Cargo Carrier, # 6502, that has...
view full answer... - Fit of Surco 52015 Folding Adapter with Curt C18113 Cargo CarrierAs long as the hitch pin hole of your receiver tube isn't recessed more than 5 inches inboard from the furthest rearward part of the rear bumper, the Surco # 52015 folding adapter would work fine with the Curt # C18113 carrier installed in the hitch on your 2021 Ford Explorer. If the hitch recessed so that the hitch pin hole is recessed by more than 5 inches under the vehicle, the folding adpater won't allow enough space for your carrier to fold. I've linked to a video showing how to...
view full answer... - Recommended Trailer Hitch and Hitch Cargo Carrier for a 2009 Honda CR-VFor your 2009 Honda CR-V, I recommend the Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 75547 because it's a Class-III rated hitch and it's easy to install. The cargo carrier I recommend is the Curt aluminum carrier # C18113 because it weighs only 29 pounds and has raised side rails to help keep cargo secure. Before you load anything on your future cargo carrier, double-check your owners manual for the maximum tongue weight. Based on my research though, it is 150 pounds. As a result of a 150 pound tongue...
view full answer... - Is Max Tongue Weight Reduced if Cargo Carrier Has Longer ShankYou are definitely on the right track with your research and findings. If your 2018 Subaru Outback Wagon is listed for 200 lbs TW then even if you use a trailer hitch with a higher TW capacity, like the Draw-Tite # 76227 with a 600 lb TW, you are limited by the least rated component which would be your Outback Wagon at 200 lbs TW. To determine how much cargo you can carry in a carrier like part # C18113 you need to subtract the weight of the carrier itself. For this example the carrier...
view full answer... - Do You Carry a 20 X 36 Inch Cargo Carrier with a Capacity of 200 PoundsThe closest hitch mounted cargo carrier that we offer to the dimensions you give is the Pro Series 20x47 Cargo Carrier, # 63155. This carrier fits 1-1/4 inch trailer hitch receivers and has a weight capacity of 300 lbs. If you have a 2 inch trailer hitch receiver, then you could use the Curt 22-1/2x49 Cargo Carrier, # C18113. This carrier has a maximum weight capacity of 500 lbs and it is made of aluminum. I have attached video reviews of both cargo carriers for you to check out. I...
view full answer... - Hitch Cargo Carrier Recommendation for a 2014 Honda CRV that Allows Rear Door to OpenI have a solution for you, but if you check out the demo video I attached for the # 63153 you will see that the railing of the carrier does interfere with the door opening all the way on a very similar Honda CR-V as yours. Instead the part # C18113 should allow your rear door to open. It has a straight shank (no rise) and low walls (5 inches). I've attached a video review of this carrier as well.
