What 1-1/4" to 2" Shank Adapter is Needed for Older Thule Hitching Post Bike Rack

Question:

Do you have an adapter sleeve that will fit tightly? The 2020 Sante Fe Hyundi has a 2 inch receiver on it I have a 945 Thule Hitching post which is made for a 1 1/4 receiver - will this work to convert

It looks like the older 945 version of the Thule Hitching Post was designed for a 2" hitch so you may have a newer version that would require the Adapter # 853-7489. If you can send me some photos of your current bike rack I can help you determine what you have and what adapter will be needed.

The adapter # 853-7292 that you referenced is not a fit for a Thule Hitching Post bike rack.

I have attached a link to a video of the 7489 adapter that you can check out.
