Recommended Ball Mount with Receiver for Bike Racks To Utilize Car Dolly
Question:
I like the Dual hitch options but I see it says, not for flat towing or Car Dolly. I want to pull a Car Dolly and still have a rack for 2 bikes, Dont e=want to hang them off ladder. My RV is a 2017 Thor Challnger 37 ft, and Ill be towing a 2018 Kia Optima. Suggestions?

To allow you to tow your vehicle and carry a bike rack, I recommend the Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount with 2" Receiver for Bike Racks # D210. This ball mount will allow you to pull your car dolly and also use a bike rack without compromising the tongue weight rating of your hitch receiver by adding another accessory.
Then for your bike rack if you don't already have an RV compatible rack, I recommend the Swagman E-Spec 2-Bike Platform Rack # S94FR that comes with all the hitch and bike locks and can carry bikes up to 60 lbs each.
If you would like other recommendations, let me know.
