There are 2 inch hitches available for your RAV4 SUVs, and as long as you have one on your vehicle you could install a cargo carrier designed for 2 inch hitches. However, since I do not know what year vehicle you have I cannot say for certain which 2 inch hitch you would need if you do need one.

If you have a hitch now, you will just need to measure from the center of the hitch pin hole on the hitch out to the furthest point out on the rear bumper. Once you know this measurement you will be able to figure out which carriers would work for you. You will need to check the specs of the cargo carriers for one that has more distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the nearest portion of the rack than what you measured on your vehicle/hitch.

For example, the Pro Series Hitch Cargo Carrier # 63153 has a distance of 12-3/4 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the carrier platform, so as long as the measurement you took was less than that this carrier would work for you.
