Hitch Extension Adapter With Dual Receivers To Carry Bike Rack And Cargo Carrier

Question:

I am looking for a hitch extender to mount a bike rack and a cargo rack on the back of my suv at the same time. I have the cargo rack and the bike rack I just need the hitch extender. The angle piece in item number S64664 would be perfect, can I just buy that piece and not have to pay for the bike rack?

I do have an option for you but the angle piece from the Swagman Traveler XCS S64664 would not allow you to carry a bike rack and cargo rack at the same time. If you were able to make it work it would be very unsafe.

I recommend to use the Malone Dual Hitch Extender for 2" Trailer Hitches part # MPG544 which will allow you to carry a cargo rack and bike rack at the same time. This extension measures 12" but will reduce your hitch's weight capacity by 50 percent. The weight of both racks, bikes and cargo will make up the tongue weight so please keep that in mind. There is not a hitch adapter available that will not reduce the tongue weight of your hitch.
