Will Ultra-Fab Motorcycle Carrier UF48-979033 Fit Curt Hitch 13534 on 2008 Toyota Highlander

Question:

Hello, Will this work on my 2008 Highlander with this hitch? 13534. I'm worried it may be too low to the ground. Thanks

When we installed Curt Class III Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13534 on the 2008 Toyota Highlander we found that the hitch tube opening was 14-3/8-inches above ground level. This will vary slightly depending on cargo load, tire pressure and tire tread depth.

The Curt hitch has plenty of tongue weight (TW) capacity, 750-lbs, to allow use of the Ultra-Fab Motorcycle Carrier # UF48-979033. Once you subtract the carrier's weight (about 50-lbs) you'll still have enough remaining hitch capacity to use the full 500-lb carrier weight capacity for your motorcycle.

If your concern is clearance at a driveway approaching at a sharp angle can help.
