Can Ultra-Fab Carrier be Used in 2 inch Hitch of RV
Question:
Sandi asked earlier, Sandi did not realize that our vehicle already has a 2inch hitch. Could we attach the carriers you recommend to that and brace it further from the frame members that supported the old bumper?

Expert Reply:
If you have a hitch already you would just need to check the tongue weight capacity of your hitch. The Ultra-Fab Dirt Bike Carrier for 2" Hitches - 500 lbs # UF48-979033 can be used on the back of a motorhome but not a fifth wheel or a travel trailer.
You will need to check with your RV manufacturer to determine the tongue weight capacity if it is not stated on the hitch anywhere. Then the weight of the carrier (50 lbs) plus the weight of your bike must be less than that capacity.
