Recommended 6 Inch Drop High-Low Adapter For Chevy 2500 For Use With Cargo Carrier With Ramp
Question:
I have A chevy 250hd pickup. I purchased a rack to hold a handycab scooter. The hight of the ramp sliding into the Class 3 receiver makes the ramp to high for the scooter to climb. I need a receiver to go into the hitch on the truckmail, that has a down 6inch with a femail end to slide my ramp into it. Thank you.

Helpful Expert Reply:
For your Chevy 2500 with a Class III receiver, I recommend the Roadmaster High-Low Adapter for Tow Bars - 2" Hitches - 6" Rise/Drop - 10K GTW, 400 lbs TW # RM-048-6. This adapter will drop your hitch receiver the 6 inches you requested for your cargo carrier and ramp. You will want to note that using this type of adapter will reduce your hitch's tongue weight capacity by 50%.
I recommend using hitch locks like # e98881 to secure your carrier and adapter. These can be keyed alike for your convenience.
