Adapter Availability to Install a 1-1/4 inch Hitch Bike Rack in a 2 inch Hitch
Question:
I have a bike rack purchase about 5 years go for my SUV with a 1 1/4 inch hitch. I recently purchased a new SUV that has a 2 inch hitch. Do you sell an adapter for so that I can use my old bike carrier on my new SUV.

Expert Reply:
Depending on the bike rack and how it is designed to attach to the trailer hitch you could use the part # HT02 as it is the most universal option we have. This is basically a sleeve that will fit the 2 inch hitch and turn it into a 1-1/4 inch hitch.
If your rack uses a standard hitch pin or a threaded hitch pin this should work well for you, but if it uses a different style of attachment like a tightening knob that pins the rack into the hitch this probably wouldn't work well.
