Expert Answers about Chevrolet Hitch Fabrication Parts

• Picking Out Replacement Awning Fabric for 21 Forest River Puma
• The awning fabric replacement size is determined by the measurement between the centers of both mounting arms you have on your current awning. I don't have a way to look up what size you have but if the 21 was the length I recommend the Solera Replacement Awning Fabric # LCV000334447 which his correct for that size. If you need a different size check out the link I attached to this page and then use the "filter by" section and click the width you have to see the correct replacements.

• Recommended Hitch Receiver Tube For 2" and 2 1/2" Hitches
• Hey Mitch, for that size receiver we only have the 18" Combo Bar with 2-1/2" Trailer Hitch Receiver # C49511 which is only 18" long. We do also have the Combo Bar with 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver # 2852 which hits your length requirement, but it's only a 2" receiver, unfortunately. I'd just recommend getting in touch with a local fabrication shop and see if they can drum something up for you. It's not a super outlandish request, so I'd imagine they'd be able to help you out.

• Trailer Hitch Receiver For a 2024 Kia Forte For Carrying a Wheelchair on a Cargo Carrier
• While the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C55HR is confirmed to fit your 2024 Kia Forte it is only going to have a 1-1/4" receiver opening. And while there is an Adapter # HTAD which will change it over to a 2" receiver opening this does reduce the tongue weight capacity of the receiver by 50% which would only end up as 100lbs for the Curt # C55HR. We do have a 1-1/4" Cargo Carrier # C18110 but it does not have a ramp. This carrier weighs 30lbs so it would allow for 170lb electric wheelchair...

• What is Dimension Difference Between Draw Tite and Curt/etrailer Hitches that Fit 2022 Jeep Wrangler
• Hey Steve, so between the hitches that fit your 2022 Jeep Wrangler Sahara the etrailer part # e98856 and the Curt # C13392 have the exact same dimensions, and the Draw Tite part # DT78MR is slightly different. The only real difference is the length of the hitch tube. The Curt/etrailer sticks out a little further whereas the Draw Tite is a litte more recessed. From the end of the hitch tube to the first mounting flange the Draw Tite sticks out 6-1/2 inches whereas the Curt/etrailer has...

• Longer Hitch Extenders that Can Fit Ford 2-1/2 inch Hitch
• What you have is a 2-1/2 inch hitch based on what you measured. So for a similar length hitch extender that fits this hitch size what you would need is the Reese Titan part # RP45018 which can be used at a 41 to 48 inch length. For something shorter you would want the Curt # C45048 which can be set at 24 to 34 inches in length.

• Does etrailer Hitch for Mazda CX-9 have Same Dimensions as Curt Hitch
• Hey Jim, I am going to let you in on an little secret...so the etrailer hitches like the part # e87AR are basically the exact same as the Curt hitches as they are made by same company. Only difference is the powder coat is a matte finish as opposed to a gloss finish like the Curts. So all of the dimensions are the exact same.

• Hey Debbie, the closest in length cargo carrier is the Reese part # 63153 which is 60 inches long and 24 inches wide. To get closer to the width you'd want the Flint Hill Goods part # FHG67GR which is 29 inches wide by 50 inches length.

• Does Kuat Pivot Swing Away Hitch Adapter PVD20B Cut Tongue Weight Capacity in Half
• Hey Keith, yes the Kuat Pivot 2 Swing Away Adapter part # PVD20B that you referenced does cut the tongue weight capacity of the hitch it is installed in by 50 percent due to the additional length that gets added to the rack. So if you had a 500 lb hitch the capacity would then be 250 lbs which happens to also be the capacity of this hitch adapter.

• Trailer Hitch Option For Trailer That Bolts Onto Frame
• Hey there Matt; we don't have anything similar to the part you mentioned for a 2 inch trailer frame. There are universal hitches for RVs that you can use that simply bolt onto the frame. Depending on how much capacity you need and the width of your frame you could use the Stromberg Carlson Adjustable Accessory Hitch Receiver # SC45MR. This is for frames 49-1/2" to 76-1/2" wide, has a 200 lb tongue weight rating, and is for accessory use only (think: bike rack). For a different size frame...

• Can Hitch Extender Be Used with Scooter Carrier
• Hey John, the reason you can't use a hitch extender like the part # RM-071-1075 is they cut the capacity of the hitch in half and you'd be over capacity since 320 lbs is more than half of 500 lbs (250 lbs).

• Can 300 lb Motorcycle be Carried on Hitch with 300 lb Tongue Weight Capacity
• Hey Steve, yeah if your RV hitch has a capacity of 300 lbs you wouldn't be able to carry a 300 lb motorcycle as you'd have to also factor in the weight of the motorcycle carrier. For example our lightest carrier is the etrailer part # e56UR which weighs 47 lbs. So the max motorcycle weight you'd be able to carry would be 253 lbs.

• Can The Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Rack Clear The Spare Tire On A 2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
• Hey Pat, The When folded down the Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Rack # HLY94FR has a 9-1/4" distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the closest part of the rack. You'll want to measure the space from the center of the trailer hitch hitch pin hole out to the outer edge of the spare tire to determine if you'll have enough clearance. If not let me know what measurement you get and I can look for an alternative.

• Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 5th Wheel Camper with 74-1/2" Mid I-Beam Dimensions
• Hey Chris, thanks for reaching out! The 72" width for the Curt Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13703 is taken from the ends of the mounting bracket (see attached). Since you're needing something wider I recommend checking out the Stromberg Carlson Adjustable Accessory Hitch Receiver # SC45MR which can fit up to a 76-1/2" wide frame and can be bolted or welded on. This also has the same 350 lb tongue weight as the Curt so you'll be able to carry the same amount of accessories...

• Recommended Extended Ball Mount for a 2 Inch Hitch
• That is something I have never heard of. I recommend looking around for a part number or sticker on that hitch before you tow with it to verify what it's capacity is. If someone made that for a bike rack or other application it may not be rated for towing or even safe to use. Feel free to email me directly any pics if you'd like. 9" is pretty far back for a hitch pin hole but we do have extended ball mounts that will close that distance and give you some space from your bumper to attach...

• Will Kuat Piston Pro and Piston Pro X Fit New Ford Bronco With Rear Mounted Spare Tire
• The answer to your question depends on where the hitch sits on the Bronco and how far the tire sticks out. This is not information that we have so you will have to use our measurements to compare on your Bronco. The distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the closest part of the Kuat Piston Pro # KU76ZR and Piston Pro X # KU98VR is 10-1/8". If this is enough to clear the spare then it will work. More than likely you will need additional clearance. In this case, the best solution...

• Recommended Extended Ball Mount for a Boat Trailer
• Sounds like you need an extended ball mount. The Hidden Hitch Ball Mount item # 80232 you were looking at would definitely give you plenty of turning clearance. It measures 15-3/4" from center of hitch pin hole to center of ball hole and has a 6,000 lbs capacity. Depending on your coupler size you will either need a 2" Hitch Ball item # 63845 or a 2-5/16" hitch ball item # 63847.

• Does a Single Part of Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack Determine Weight Rating
• Hey Tom, So there isn't one single component that gives the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE # HLY74FR an 80 lb per-bike capacity. It is a combination of a lot of things, including the welded gussets of the wheel holders and reinforced frame construction, per Hollywood Racks.
