1990 Mitsubishi Montero Hitch Recommendation

Question:

I reviewed the prior QandA for hitch receiver options on 1990 Monteros. I will be using my hitch receiver for a bike rack and cargo basket. The bike rack and cargo basket both have 2inch connectors. The recommended hitch receiver for my Monty is the C12181 - this has the 1 1/4inch receiver. Any recommendations how I get the 2inch connector on the recommended part for my car? Thanks!

The only hitch we offer for your 1990 Mitsubishi Montero is the Curt hitch part # 13091 which has a 1-1/4 inch opening. The only way to use a 2 inch hitch accessory with this hitch would be to use the hitch adapter part # HTAD.

Only thing about hitch adapters like this is that they cut the capacity of the hitch they are used on in half.
