Recommendations For Towing Camper Trailer and Carrying Bike Rack At The Same Time
Question:
Hello, Looking for a dual receiver where I can add 350lb in top receiver bike rack and bikes and tow a 4500lb to 5000lb camper fully loaded. I saw the experts answer about the Curt receiver and ball that would work. However, my application requires the use of anti sway bars. Thank you,

We have exactly what you are looking for.
While there is not a dual hitch adapter that is rated for towing a 4500lb - 5000lb camper and a bike rack at the same time, there is a ball mount that is more than capable.
The Gen-Y Adjustable 2-Ball Mount w/ Stacked Receivers # 325-GH-315 can be used with a weight distribution hitch, and one of the unused receivers can be used to carry your bike rack. You will just need to stay under the 1500lb tongue weight rating of the ball mount or the tongue weight rating of the trailer hitch receiver on your 2017 Ford Expedition, whichever is lower.
I included a video of the # 325-GH-315 for you to take a look at.
