Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2014 Kia Soul Compatible With Swagman XTC 2 Bike Rack
Question:
I already own a Swagman xtc2 bike rack that holds 2 bikes. I need a hitch that will mount to my 2014 KIA Soul. Do you have a hitch that will work with my bike rack? Thank you.

I have the hitch you need for your 2014 Kia Soul and your Swagman XTC-2 2-Bike Platform Rack for 1-1/4" and 2" Trailer Hitches # S64670. I recommend the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # 24915. This is a confirmed fit for your 2014 Soul and is a bolt-on installation. There is no drilling required, but the exhaust has to be temporarily lowered. I've attached a video of this installation to help you.
If you don't already have the locking pin and cable for your bike rack, I recommend the Anti-Rattle Hitch Lock and Cable for Swagman Bike Racks w/ 1-1/4" & Combo Shanks - 7' # S64031 to secure your bikes to the rack and the rack to the hitch receiver. The threaded anti-rattle will take the noise and significant movement out of the bike rack.
