Bike Rack for a 2 Inch Bumper Mounted RV Trailer Hitch Receiver  

Question:

Will the TH9058 mount on my trailer with a UF35-946402 Trailer Hitch Receiver. My trailer has the 4 x 4 inch bumper.

Though the Thule Roadway, part # TH9058 is a compatible fit with the Ultra Fab 2" Bumper Receiver, part # UF35-946402, it is not recommended to be used on a trailer or RV. The distance from the rear axle to the receiver, plus the motion that the trailer has can shake apart the rack.

To avoid this, you'll need to pick an RV rated rack. One of our most cost effective racks is the Let's Go Aero NEO2, part # B01748. This is a two bike hanging rack that is rated for RV use. The rack doesn't include any integrated security features, but a cable lock like part # e98891 can be used and run through the rack's security loop to secure the bikes to the rack and the rack to the trailer hitch.

Since your hitch has a 2" x 2" receiver opening, you could also look at the Thule Range 4 Bike RV Rack # TH9057. This rack has a bike and hitch lock, but the cable lock like the # e98891 is always a great extra measure.

I've included a video of this rack so you can get an idea of its features and performance.
