Can You Use a Shank Adapter on the Thule T2 Pro for 1-1/4" Receivers
Question:
Does this work to adapt a 1.25 T2 Pro XTR? Item TH83JV
asked by: Will
Expert Reply:
I have a solution for you, but there is not an adapter compatible for a 2 inch hitch from Thule Thule T2 Pro # TH23JV and there is not a replaceable shank to upgrade to the 2 inch receiver. However, you could use a sleeve adapter like the Brophy # HTAD to bring the 2" receiver down to a 1-1/4" receiver and allow you to carry your T2 Pro.
You cannot put a shank adapter like the # 853-7489 on the # TH23JV because of the locking knob system that keeps the shank firmly in place in the shank when installed.
