They both have a 400 lb tongue weight capacity. Please note that this adapter is designed for flat towing only.

• What Bike Rack Option Do You Have as an Alternative to the LC429756?
  I'm sorry to hear about the interference! I believe you are talking about the Hitch-It 2 Bike Rack for Straight Tongue Trailers # LC731138. This rack comes with clamps that work with 2" - 4" wide trailer tongues. If you are looking for an alternative solution, I recommend using a dual hitch adapter like the Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter, 2" or 6" Drop/Rise # RM-077-6. With that adapter, I recommend using a bike rack like the Saris Freedom Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2"...

• Roadmaster Hitch Adapter for Flat towing a 2018 Jeep Rubicon and Two E-Bikes
  I recommend the Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter, 10" Drop/Rise item # RM-077-10. This adapter was designed for this type of set up. Your Jeep Rubicon and Swagman E bike rack weigh well below the 10,000 lbs maximum capacity of this hitch. I have attached a review video as well as a picture that show this rack being utilized in the same way.

• Can Swagman S94FR E-Spec Bike Rack Be Used While Towing Vehicle Behind Class A Motorhome
  The Swagman # S94FR E-Spec bike rack can indeed be used on the rear of a Class A motorhome while flat towing a vehicle, or if the vehicle you're flat towing already has a Class III or higher hitch on it with a 2 inch receiver, you can install the rack on the vehicle you're towing, as it's also designed for use on a towed vehicle. The E-Spec can carry 2 bikes weighing up to 70 lbs each with tires up to 3 inches wide. Because it holds the bikes by the top frame tube instead of the wheel...

• Which Roadmaster Dual Hitch Adapter For Carrying Bike Rack While Flat Towing
  Since the receiver height and the base plate height of the vehicle is the same, you won't need to worry about keeping the tow bar level. If your bike rack has an angled shank with a couple inches of rise to it, you could use the # RM-077-6. If the bike rack has a straight shank, you'll want a dual-hitch adapter with a larger rise such as # RM-077-8 for an 8-inch or # RM-077-10 for a 10-inch rise to move the bike rack up and out of the way. The adapters have a tongue weight capacity...

• Carrying Bikes on an RV While Flat Towing a Jeep
  I recommend using a hitch mounted bike carrier on the back of the motorhome with a dual adapter like part # RM-077-6. The correct hitch adapter you need depends on if you need a rise or drop in order to tow the Jeep level. I've linked our complete selection for you. You could use a hitch mounted rack on the back of the Jeep but there's a lot of movement on the back of a towed vehicle and most racks aren't rated to handle the additional stress so your rack choices would be very limited....

• Vehicle Protector Compatible With Dual Hitch Adapter & Blue Ox Tow Bar
  We have an option for you, though the way the Roadmaster Tow Defender Protective Screening # RM-4750 installs onto the receiver means it isn't going to be compatible with a dual-hitch adapter.

• Is There a Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter with Higher Tongue Weight Rating
  I do have an option for you but the Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapters are for flat-towing which have practically no tongue weight. The only option I can think of for a capacity this high is a stacked ball mount like the Gen-Y Adjustable 2-Ball Mount w/ Stacked Receivers part # 325-GH-214. The offset top tube will be great for bike racks and you can then use the bottom two for towing with the included dual hitch ball.

• Recommended Dual Hitch Adapter and Cargo Carrier for Flat Towing/Carrying Bike Rack and Cargo Carrie
  You can use a Dual Hitch Adapter like # RM-077-2 so you can simultaneously carry a cargo carrier/bike rack and flat tow. There are a couple things to keep in mind, though... Using an adapter will reduce the tongue weight capacity of the hitch by half. Therefore, if the hitch has a tongue weight capacity of 350 lbs, using the adapter will reduce that capacity to 175 lbs. That's not a big deal for the flat towed vehicle, because flat towed vehicles are a rolling load that don't exert any...

• Does the Use of a Dual Hitch Adapter Reduce Tongue Weight Capacity
  You are correct, the use of an adapter typically reduces the tongue weight capacity by 50%, but the amount can vary slightly. Since you are towing a trailer, you do not want to use the Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter, 6" Drop/Rise # RM-077-6 since it is designed for flat towing. As for the other dual hitch adapters available, I checked and they all reduce capacity by 50% so that would leave you overloaded. I do, however, have a solution.

• Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter Compatible with Small Motorcycle Trailer and Bike Rack
  The Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter, 6" Drop/Rise # RM-077-6 is not for use when towing a trailer. However, I do have an option for your Edge. You can use the Malone 2" Dual Purpose Hitch Receiver # MPG544 which is rated for up to 400 lbs total tongue weight and 4,000 lbs towing capacity. The hitch receiver will further limit you, but as long at the tongue weight of the trailer, the bike rack, and your ball mount don't exceed the tongue weight of your hitch you will be good to go.

• What Adapter To Raise Hitch Mounted Cargo Carrier On a 2019 Toyota RAV4
  For raising your hitch mounted cargo carrier on your 2019 Toyota RAV4 I recommend the Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver # RM-077-6 over the Malone 2" Dual Purpose Hitch Receiver # MPG544 due to the Roadmaster # RM-077-6 being about 1 inch taller.

• Can Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter be Used with a Winch
  I do have a solution for you but when I reached out to my contact at Roadmaster they did not recommend using the Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter # RM-077-6 with a winch. Instead what I recommend using is a Gen-Y Hitch. We have part # 325-GH-313 which has a 5" rise/drop and part # 325-GH-314 which has a 7-1/2" rise/drop which you can use. These are much more heavy-duty than the adapters used for flat towing so you can definitely use it with your winch on a mounting bracket like part # BDW20011...
