Will Roadmaster Skid Wheel # RM-050 Prevent Scraping When Carrying Bike Rack

Question:

I purchased your 13358 hitch and RKY10002 Swinging Bike Platform awhile back and am very pleased with both - except when I encounter just about any incline it drags. I purchased a skid wheel awhile back and had to return it because it flat didnt fit my hitch. So, my question is will the RM-050 fit my hitch and solve my driveway gouging problem? FYI, this is for a Sprinter 144 extended body van. Thanks,

Yes, the Roadmaster Rollaway Skid Wheel part # RM-050 will fit the Curt hitch you have installed part # 13358. To determine where the roller will be relative to the hitch height you'd need to measure 3-1/4 inches down from the hitch pin hole. Comparing that dimension to your current setup will allow you to know if you'd have enough clearance.
