Options for Carrying a Wheelchair with 2007 Volvo XC70
Question:
I have a 2007 Volvo XC 70 with a type II 2inch trailer hitch and need a wheelchair rack to fit this hitch. Do you stock something that will work

Expert Reply:
If your 2007 Volvo XC70 has a 2 inch trailer hitch receiver, the hitch-mounted wheelchair carrier I recommend is the Flint Hill Goods 30x50 Cargo Carrier with 48 Inch Long Ramp # FHG77ZR. This carrier will help you easily load your wheelchair with the attached ramp. This carrier has a weight capacity of 500 pounds and is made from a sturdy steel construction. I have attached a review video of this carrier for you.
If the trailer hitch on your XC70 is a Class II trailer hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver, your best option will be to use a small trailer to tow your wheelchair. We do not have a wheelchair carrier that will fit a 1-1/4 inch hitch.
If you need to tow a trailer to carry your wheelchair and will need to install a wiring harness on your XC70, I recommend using the Curt # C59496. This wiring harness includes the installation kit and will help protect your XC70 from harmful electrical shorts and mis-wire situations. The installation instructions for the # C59496 are linked for you. I have also attached a help article on choosing the correct ball mount.
Other help articles I have linked include an article on trailer hitch receiver sizes to help you determine which receiver size is on your XC70, as well as parts needed to tow and tips on towing a trailer.
