Can Hollywood Racks Hitch Lock HRLHPT be Used with Sportrack Bike Rack

Question

Question:

Can this threaded hitch pin be used with a 2013 Toyota Tacoma with a heavy duty tow package and the 2inch receiver? I have a SportRack Crest 2 Locking bike rack and the original hitch pin is too short for the lock to engage. Both the SportRack hitch pin and this Hollywood are thread pitch 1/2-13. I cant find the information of how long this Hollywood pin is though. Thank you.

You definitely did your homework matching the thread pitch of your Sportrack bike rack to the Hollywood Racks. The useable span of the hitch lock # HRLHPT is 3-5/8 inches which is wider than most similar hitch locks so this should work well.

Answer 1

There are bike racks you can use with your Mokwheel Basault ST Ebike, but the Thule Elite Van XT rack has a 42 lb per-bike weight capacity, so it won't be an option. What you'll need is a hitch-mounted bike rack, and because you're…

The difference between the Class II and Class III hitches has to do with their Gross Trailer Weight (GTW), their Tongue Weight (TW), and their Hitch Receiver Size. Class II trailer hitch receivers have a 1-1/4 inch receiver and can be rated up to…

Hi Robert; hopefully your Roadmaster tow bar is one that attaches to direct-connect base plates as opposed to crossbar base plates; for example the 8,000 lb Roadmaster Sterling would be optimal. Assuming that, here is what you need to flat tow your…

You are on the right track. The only way we have that will allow you to use the Thule T2 Pro Xtr Bike Platform Rack part #TH69TX with the 2.5" receiver tube opening on your truck would be with adapter. For this, I recommend the Brophy Hitch…

I recommend the Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter, 10" Drop/Rise item #RM-077-10. This adapter was designed for this type of set up. Your Jeep Rubicon and Swagman E bike rack weigh well below the 10,000 lbs maximum capacity of this hitch. I…

A 4-Way trailer connector has the basic lighting functions only; running lights, left turn signal and brake lights, right turn signal and brake lights, and ground. A 7-Way has these functions and a 12 volt circuit, a circuit for electric trailer…

Answer 7

To me it makes the most sense to put a Bike Rack #HLY64FR on the flat towed vehicle rather than above the tow bars. Especially on heavy e-bikes as they are difficult to lift that high onto the rack, but also as it only makes sense to have the rack on…

Hello Steve. I do have a good solution for you, but I cannot recommend using the Malone Adapter #MPG544. Since it is rated for towing only 4,000 lbs, your 8,000 lb towed vehicle would be double the max towing capacity. You are right about there being…

You will need to use the Hitch Reducer 2" to 1-1/4" Trailer Hitch Receiver #HT02 which will allow you to use your Thule T2 Pro XTR #TH23JV with a 1-1/4" shank in a 2" trailer hitch receiver. Since Thule does not make a replacement…

Answer 10

Class I and Class II hitches both have a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening. The difference is that a Class I hitch has a lower tongue weight rating, usually 200 pounds and a lower towing rating, usually 2,000 pounds. A Class II hitch usually has a tongue…

Hey Dave, so the best option for carrying your carbon frame bike and e-bike is the Swagman Escapee part #S39SR with the ramp #S59SR . It has the capacity for carrying an e-bike, is rated for travel trailer use, only touches the bikes by the tires…
