Using an Adapter to Fit a 1-1/4 Inch Thule Bike Rack in a 2 Inch Trailer Hitch
Question:
I am trying to see if this part will work with my existing 4 bike Thule rack purchased circa 2004. How can I identify my Thule Rack model to see if this adapter will work?

Many of the Thule bike racks looked the same in the past but if you email me a picture I can probably determine which one it is; or I can at least narrow it down.
Another option (if we can't figure it out) is to use a reducer sleeve, # HT02, which will allow you to use a 1-1/4 inch bike rack in a 2 inch hitch. I have linked a video review of this reducer for you.
