Is there an Adapter for Towing a Trailer and Carrying a Bike Rack Together
Question:
I own a dual jet ski trailer, pop up camper, and a 1 1/2 ton trailer. I also own a 2008 Chevy Avalanche. Could I tow any of my trailers using my Avalanche and this product so I could also attach my bike rack?

The Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter, # RM-077-4, is not for use with any type of trailer - tow bars only. What you need is the CURT Multipurpose Ball Mount, # D210. This ballmount was designed for the application you are describing. It has a tongue weight capacity of 750 pounds. Tongue weight will be the combined tongue weight of the trailer, the bike rack, and the bikes. The gross trailer weight capacity is 5,000 pounds. The reciever portion of the multipurpose ball mount has a weight capacity of 350 pounds.
