Hitch, Bike Rack, and Cargo Carrier Solution for 1999 Isuzu Oasis

Question:

I have a 1999 Isuzu oasis and need a 2inch receiver, not for towing, but carrying bike rack and basket. Can I get a 2inch for this vehicle?

There are only 1-1/4 inch hitches available for your 1999 Isuzu Oasis. 2 inch hitches are reserved for higher capacity vehicles like trucks and SUVs.

There are bike racks and cargo carriers that fit the smaller hitch size though.

The most popular bike rack we carry that has been confirmed to fit this vehicle is the Thule Camber 2 part # TH9058. We asked our demo and install guys to name their favorite, most easy-to-use bike racks and this one showed up in nearly everyone's top three. Check out the review video I attached for more info.

If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.

For a cargo carrier we then have the Curt part # C18145 which fits the smaller hitch size.

For a hitch then you would want the Curt hitch part # C11211 which is a confirmed fit.
