Will The Anti Rattle Bolt Fit In A 2.5 Inch Hitch?
Question:
The receiver on my Ram 2500 is 2.5 inches. It has an adapter sleeve for 2 inch mounts. Will the anti rattle bolt be long enough for my 2.5 inch receiver? Or do I need to purchase a longer bolt? Thanks.

Expert Reply:
There is some wiggle room with the bolt used on the Saris Freedom 4 Bike Rack # SA4414B as you can see in the picture I've included. You can use the bolt with a clip like Curt's # C21600 instead of the locking end cap to gain a little more room if need be but that won't be necessary. I like the Saris Freedom 4 and have used it a decent amount so I've included a video for you to get a closer look!
