  • Are There Hitch-Mounted Cargo Carriers Rated For Use On A 5th Wheel
  • Hey Louis, For RV use we recommend using a fixed cargo carrier like the Curt # C18152 because the hinge on folding carriers becomes a failure point due to the less sophisticated suspension of an RV. It fits a 2" trailer hitch receiver, has a 500lb capacity, and is 60" long x 24" wide x 5-1/2" deep.

  • Can a Cargo Carrier Be Used While Also Flat Towing?
  • As long as you RV Bumper is rated to carry the weight of one of the Cargo Carriers # e99050, # e99049 or # e96ZR and the receiver sits far enough below your bumper for your tow bar there is no reason you would not be able to use them together. Another option which is very popular is using a Dual Hitch # RM-077-8 with a hitch mounted Cargo Carrier # C18152. There are several different height and separation sizes available depending on the height you need your tow bar to sit. If you can...

  • Recommended Cargo Carrier Similar to the Lets Go Aero BigBoss
  • Yeah bad news George, it looks like the 24x48 Lets Go Aero BigBoss Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches H01465 just stopped being made earlier this year so it's not available, unfortunately. We do have other cargo carriers like the 24x60 Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches # C18152 which looks to be the same thing as the Big Boss carrier with a bit higher weight capacity, but it is a bit longer at 60".

  • Solution for Installing trailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper When Brackets Won't Fit
  • Hi Roger; since you can't get the brackets around there altering or replacing your bumper is the only solution. Unfortunately, there is no adapter that would allow it to fit. You could also get creative and try to come up with a way to weld the # e99050 directly onto the bumper if you don't mind it being permanently attached. Outside of that, I would say your best option is to add a hitch like the # 13703 which fits frames 22" - 72" wide. Then you could use a hitch mounted cargo carrier...

  • Spare Tire Mount And Hitch Mounted Cargo Carrier Options For A 1979 Airstream Motorhome
  • Hi Eric, Airstreams typically have small tongues but if you have the space you could install the Demco Spare Tire Mount # DM15851-76. This clamps on to the trailer frame at the tongue giving you space for the hitch mounted carrier in the back. If not, you could also just get a weld-on receiver tube # 337RT25808B and weld it to the top of the bumper off to the side so that it doesn't interfere with the other carrier. If these won't work then send me some pictures of your motorhome and...

  • Cargo Weight Capacity of Hitch Carrier Used on Honda CR-V
  • It sounds like you have a lot of cargo to transport in and on your Honda CR-V. Hitch carriers like the 22-1/2x49 Curt Cargo Carrier # C18113 are a great way to move heavy cargo items that might be too difficult to get up on your roof. Most vehicle roofs are limited to a weight rating of 165-lbs or less and this is only a fraction of the weight that can be carried on a hitch carrier. But these hitch carriers are not intended to hold a large rooftop cargo box. The issue is that such a cargo...

  • Can Reese Solo Cargo Carrier # PS1040100 Be Used at Rear of 5th Wheel Trailer
  • Hey Richard, so the Reese cargo carrier part # PS1040100 would be a great option at the rear of a fifth wheel trailer. Unlike bike racks cargo carriers don't have the explicit "can or cannot be used at rear of trailer" rating but what we have found when we have called them is that they strongly recommend using the ones that are not folding like this Reese carrier so it would work well for you.

  • Which Swing Away Hitch Adapter For a Cargo Carrier on 2020 Ram ProMaster City
  • There is a swing away hitch adapter option for your 2020 Ram ProMaster City. I recommend the Yakima BackSwing Swing Away Hitch Extender for Bike Racks - 2" Hitches # Y02483 due to its 250lb weight capacity and ease of use. The Thule # Y02483 also includes a lock system to keep it secured to your vehicle. To ensure that the Yakima # Y02483 will work with your cargo carrier will also need to have a dedicated 2 inch shank. I included a video review for the Yakima # Y02483 for you to take...

  • Recommended 2 Bike Rack and Cargo Carrier
  • Hey Scott, great question but no you can not add a bike rack to the end of the 32x48 Reese Solo Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches # PS1040100. You'd instead need to use something like the Saris MHS UNO Modular 2-Bike Rack with Cargo Carrier # SAR72MR which is a 2 bike rack with an integrated cargo box. The bike rack portion of this rack has a 70 lb total capacity, and the cargo carrier portion has a 160 lb capacity. As for the trike, you'd need to use the SeaSucker Trike Rack for 1 Trike...

  • Can etrailer Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches be Used in 1-1/4" Class 1 Hitch
  • Hi Chris, Yes, technically you can use the etrailer Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches # e98874 in a 1-1/4" Class 1 hitch with the Hitch Adapter 1-1/4" to 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver # HTAD and Hitch Lock # e98879. That said, using an adapter like this will reduce the capacity of your hitch by 50 percent. Most Class 1 hitches have a tongue weight capacity of 200 lbs, so an adapter will cut that to 100 lbs. Since the carrier weighs 48 lbs, that leaves just 52 lbs of carrying capacity. That's...

  • Is Curt Cargo Carrier Compatible With etrailer Hitch on 2024 Subaru Outback
  • The Curt Cargo Carrier # C18113 will definitely work with the etrailer # e25TR on your 2024 Outback. Keep in mind, you will be limited to the 350 lb max tongue weight of the hitch or the max tongue weight of your vehicle. Whichever is lower is what you must follow. You will not be able to load 500 lbs onto the cargo carrier even though it is capable of holding it.
