Vehicle Protector Compatible With Dual Hitch Adapter & Blue Ox Tow Bar
Question:
Is it possible to use the Tow Defender Protective Screen with a dual hitch adapter when using a Hollywood Bike Rack Sport Rider SE, Blue Ox tow bar and toad?

Expert Reply:
We have an option for you, though the way the Roadmaster Tow Defender Protective Screening # RM-4750 installs onto the receiver means it isn't going to be compatible with a dual-hitch adapter. Instead, what you can use that will work with a dual-hitch adapter and your Blue Ox tow bar is a Blue Ox protective guard:
- Blue Ox KarGard Towed Vehicle Protector # BX8870
This will do a superb job of keeping your towed vehicle safe, and because it mounts on your Blue Ox tow bar (on all tow bars except the Acclaim) there won't be any interference with dual-hitch adapter. The KarGard mounts very close to the vehicle as well, so you will have enough room to use your bike rack as well. Then for a dual hitch adapter you can choose from the following, depending on the rise or drop you need:
- 2-1/4" Rise/Drop: Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter # RM-077-2
- 4" Rise/Drop: Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter # RM-077-4
- 6" Rise/Drop: Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter # RM-077-6
- 8" Rise/Drop: Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter # RM-077-8
- 10" Rise/Drop: Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter # RM-077-10
