Option to Help Level Tilting Cargo Carrier
Question:
Will this cargo carrier tilt to the side of the load isn’t equal on both sides? I’m getting real sick of how mine tilts so bad.

Thanks for the photo, and honestly with so much weight to one side, any cargo carrier is going to tilt, including the 24x60 etrailer Cargo Carrier # e98874. There is something that can help level it out though, which are support straps:
- Curt Cam Buckle Stabilizing Strap for Hitch-Mounted Accessories # 18050
The # 18050 are 61 inch straps, and if you use at one strap both sides of the carrier, or ideally even three with two on the heaviest side and one on the other side, the tilting may not be completely eliminated, but will certainly get more evened out.
