Can I Use the 1-1/4 Thule T2 Pro XTR Bike Rack in a 2 Receiver?
Question:
Hi - Do you sell a Thule adapter for a Thule T2 Pro XT 2 Hitch Bike Rack 1.25 to convert the 1.25 to 2?

No, we do not. The only affordable way to use the 1-1/4" Thule T2 Pro XTR Bike Rack item # TH23JV in a 2" receiver is to use a reducer like the the Brophy item # HT02. This hitch reducer will not lower your vehicles tongue weight capacity but it will allow you to mount the 1-1/4" Thule T2 Pro item # TH23JV in a 2" receiver.
The Thule Replacement Aluminum Shank Adapter - 1-1/4" to 2" item # 853-7292 you were looking at doesn't fit the T2 Pro. It works on a few of Thule's hanging bike racks only.
The most unaffordable option by Thule is to use the Replacement Lower Assembly and 2" Stinger for Thule T2 Pro XTR 2-Bike Rack item # TH37MY and convert your item # TH23JV into a item # TH83JV. At that price point it would be just as easy to buy a new bike rack.
