The 17x46 Curt Cargo Carrier for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Steel - 500 lbs # C18145 cannot use a hitch on the far side to allow a bike rack, however, I do have a couple solutions for you.
The first option is the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE2 Platform 2 Bike Rack w/Cargo Carrier - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # HR1450Z-85 which will allow you to carry 2 bikes and 100 lbs of gear on the back of your Jeep. This comes with the hitch lock and cable lock to secure your bikes.
The second option is to use the Malone 2" Dual Purpose Hitch Receiver # MPG544 which will allow both a carrier on the bottom and a bike rack on the top receiver. This adapter will reduce the tongue weight rating of your trailer hitch receiver on your Jeep by 50%. This will allow you to use your current bike rack with the Curt Cargo carrier listed above, but your total weight will be limited based on the weights of both the carrier and rack as well as the weight when loaded.
