Will the Kuat Sherpa Work With EcoHitch On 2018 Subaru WRX
Question:
Hi, I need a way to carry two carbon bikes on my 2018 Subaru WRX. Im interested in the Kuat NV 2.0, and would also need to add a hitch to my car. The EcoHitch invisi Item # 306-X7257 looks nice for being hidden, not decreasing ground clearance, and being 2, but your video talks about the hitch having limited ion depth due to the floor pan being behind it...do you know if it would work with the Kuat NV 2.0? If not, what would you recommend? Thanks,

Expert Reply:
The EcoHitch Invisi Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 306-X7257 is a great option for a 2018 Subaru WRX. That said, in order to use a bike rack you must ensure the distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the end of the shank is not more than 2-1/2" due to the trunk pan. The Kuat Sherpa 2.0 2-Bike Platform Rack part # SH22B measures 1-5/8" from the center of the hitch pin hole to the end of the shank to it will work.
