• Can the Curt RV Bumper 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver Be Used to Carry a Scooter
• The Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13701 is going to be the better option for your cargo carrier and scooter. The Curt RV Bumper 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver part # E-100 that you referenced does indeed have a 350 lb tongue weight rating however, the bumper on your RV is likely less. You can check this by contacting the manufacturer but I do believe the Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver would be better suited for your application. Please keep in mind that if you are...

• 2021 Forrest River 2883WS Cargo Carrier Recommendation
• For your 2021 Forest River 2883WS I would recommend a hitch mounted cargo carrier over a bumper cargo carrier, as Forrest River does not recommend mounting anything the the bumper although people have done it in the past with no issues. Because of this reason, I recommend using something like the 24x60 Reese Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches # 63153. This carrier is 24x60" which is slightly smaller than the 24x84 etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper # e96ZR you referenced. However, these two...

• Can Cargo Carrier be Used Behind an RV
• There is a cargo carrier you can use on an RV but it is recommended it be one with a completely solid shank as opposed to one which folds and tilts; the reason for that is the amount of movement at the rear of an RV will be much greater than the back of a passenger vehicle and a solid shank will give your carrier the added stability to handle that much movement. The cargo carrier I recommend is the Curt Cargo Carrier # C18152 because like the etrailer.com Cargo Carrier it measures 60"...

• Enclosed Cargo Carrier Recommendation for Mercedes Benz Sprinter RV
• Not all enclosed cargo carriers are approved for use at the rear of an RV like the part # M2205-01-02 that you referenced but I do have a great solution for you that is. You'd want the GearDeck 17 Enclosed Cargo Carrier part # H00604 which is RV approved and will work well. This can carry up to 17 cubic feet of storage space and has a 420 lb capacity. I attached a picture of what the carrier looks like installed on an RV as well as an install video for more info as well.

• Recommended Spare Tire Holder for RV Bumper Cargo Carrier
• The 24x60 etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper - Steel - Folding - 500 lbs # e99049 you referenced doesn't have a specific spare tire holder. The Buyers Products Spare Tire Carrier # 3375201010, the Fulton Economy Spare Tire Carrier with Lock # FETCHL0700, or the Erickson Spare Trailer Tire Bracket Kit # EM77316 are options you could make work with that carrier. I'd go with the Buyers Product option because it offers support over a longer area.

• Cargo Carrier Recommendation for Use Behind RV
• At the rear of a trailer or RV the ride quality is very rough when compared to the ride quality at the rear of a passenger vehicle. Reason being the suspension isn't as sophisticated and there is a longer distance between the rear axle and the rear of the trailer which exaggerates the movement of the trailer when hitting bumps. Because of that only a few cargo carriers were designed to be reinforced enough for that type of use. The Stromberg Carlson Cargo Carrier part # CC-100 is approved...

• Is There a Spare Tire Mount for the 24x84 etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper
• The 24x84 etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper part # e96ZR can hold a spare tire but there isn't any sort of specific mount for this. The photo attached below is a custom job from a neighbor and I'm not totally sure what they used to create this. If you want to try and recreate this you're welcome to but we don't have any advice for this. The only thing I can recommend is to set the tire inside the basket and strap it down or go with a smaller size so you can retain a bumper mount. The...

• Cargo Carrier that Converts to a Bike Carrier for a Windsport 29M RV
• I don't recommend using the 24 x 60 etrailer Cargo Carrier, part # e98874 behind an RV, because its a folding carrier. The distance from the rear axle of the RV to the hitch is much greater than on a passenger vehicle, and this causes there to be greater force applied to the carrier, and unless specifically designed for it, can break through the hitch pin over time and suddenly fold down, or break the folding mechanism. Instead, I recommend the Stromberg Carlson 23 x 60 carrier, part #...

• Recommended RV Cargo Carrier with a 500-LB Capacity
• It sounds like you're looking for an RV cargo carrier for an 8" bumper that's 24x36" with a 500-lb capacity. I have a possible solution for you. First, though, the only bumper-mounted cargo carrier we carry that closely matches the dimensions and capacity is the etrailer Cargo Carrier, part # e99050. It is 24x40" and has a 500-lb capacity. However, it only fits 4x4 or 4-1/2x4" bumpers. A better option may be to install a hitch on your RV and use a hitch-mounted cargo carrier. For the...

• Best Cargo Carrier for Generator on an RV
• I would love to help but finding a cargo carrier with everything you need is going to be an extremely difficult task. The main issue is going to be size/weight. Most cargo carriers that can accommodate the 27.6" depth of your generator are not going to be under 50 lbs. Also, only cargo carriers with a fixed shank can be used on the back of an RV due to the added stress. Therefore, the only cargo carrier we offer that will allow you to carry the Honda EU7000iS Inverter Generator on the...
