Will the Hollywood Racks Traveler Tow n Go Bike Rack Fit 2000 Ford Explorer Towing a Pop Up Camper
Question:
I have a 2000 Ford Explorer XLT which I use to tow a pop up camper. I have installed a class 3 hitch and am looking for a hitch mounted bike rack for 3 bikes. Will the Hollywood Racks fit the Explorer if I purchase an extended draw bar? Do you have any other racks you would suggest other than the ones I mentioned? Thank you for your help.

Helpful Expert Reply:
Regarding your setup of your 2000 Ford Explorer XLT towing a pop-up camper, the Hollywood Racks Traveler you referenced or the Curt Clamp-On 3 # C18013 will work as long as you stay within the maximum tongue weight of your Explorer.
The bike rack weighs approximately 20 pounds and the maximum capacity per bike is 35 pounds. I did a little research and your Explorer will have a towing capacity between 5740-6820 pounds. Therefore, your tongue weight will likely be 574-682 pounds. I would still double-check your owners manual for clarification.
We do carry ball mounts that are extra long and I included a link showing you all the extra long ball mounts we currently offer.
