How To Convert Thule T2 Bike Rack For 1-1/4 Trailer Hitch Receivers To Work In 2 Receivers

Question

Question:

I own a Thule T2 hitch rack made for a 1.25” hitch. Is it possible to convert the rack to fit a 2” hitch without an adapter?

I wish the replacement shank was available to convert your Thule T2 Pro XTB Bike Rack TH9035XT from 1-1/4" to 2", but unfortunately it is not a part that Thule sells.

The only way to use your T2 TH9035XT in a 2" receiver is using an adapter sleeve like the # HT02 which Thule has confirmed will be fine for your rack.

I included videos for each of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
