Trailer Hitch Recommendation for Towing Dirt Bike Trailer for a 2001 Buick Century
Question:
Are there any dirt bike carriers I can Put on a 01 Buick Century?....Bike Weight 215 lb
asked by: Sean S
Expert Reply:
For a 2001 Buick Century the highest rated trailer hitches we offer are Class II hitches like the part # 36374 which have a 300 lb tongue weight rating and a 1-1/4 inch hitch opening.
The only carriers we offer are designed to fit 2 inch trailer hitches like the part # UF48-979033 that you referenced.
The best option you have is to find a small trailer to tow your dirt bike.
To complete your towing setup you would want the trailer wiring part # 18252, ball mount # 36061, 1-7/8 inch hitch ball # 19256, and 2 inch hitch ball part # 19258.
