Will the Swagman Dispatch Bike Rack Fit a 2004 Gulfstream BT Cruiser Class B+
Question:
Hello, I have a 2004 Class B+, Gulfstream BT Cruiser RV. The 2inch hitch is 11inch above the ground, and the hitch pin hole is recessed 10inch behind the bumper. Will this bike rack work with my RV? Will the bike rack clear my bumper or is it possible to use a hitch extension? Thanks alot

Helpful Expert Reply:
The Swagman Dispatch # S44FR measures 12 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the nearest part of the rack so it will clear the bumper by 2 inches. The nearest wheel tray is 18 inches so you should not have an issue loading the closest bike either. You will not need an extension which is good because extensions reduce the tongue weight capacity of the hitch by 50 percent and put additional stress on it.
