Is There a Bolt-on Trailer Hitch for 3-1/2" Rear Bumper On Trailer
Question:
Hi, Im looking for a receiver hitch I can mount on the steel tube bumper on the back of my travel trailer to accept a Thule bike rack. Im looking at your model E98852 which looks like it would bolt on to the 3 1/2inch tube bumper, but without dimensions between the two plates I cant say for sure. Its way over-rated for the class I need class 1 so if you have a better suggestion, Im all ears. Also its 2inch and I need a 1 1/4 Thanks,

The bumper mount trailer hitch options we offer are all designed for the most part to fit a standard 4" x 4" square bumper, the Curt RV Bumper 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver part # E-100 for example. That said, I am not aware of any bolt-on trailer hitch which fits a 3-1/2" x 3-1/2" bumper so if this is what you have your only option is one that mounts to the frame, the Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver part #13703. These options will both work great with a bike rack.
