Trailer Hitch Mount Cargo Carrier to Carry a Generator and Clear the Spare Tire on a Jeep Wrangler
Question:
Looking to know the best set up to carry my Yamaha ef3000iseb generator. The measurement from the pin to the outside edge of the spare is just over 11 inches. Looking to reduce the wobble/sway as much as possible. Thank you for your help

Expert Reply:
If your generator will fit a 60 by 24 inch cargo carrier then Pro Series carrier # 63153 would be a great option. It measures 12-3/4 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to he closest edge of the carrier. I have included a link to a video review for you.
The carrier does not have built in anti-rattle capabilities, which is normal for cargo carriers, so I recommend adding locking hitch pin and anti-rattle device # 63232.
If your generator will not fit the 60 by 24 inch dimensions let me know how large the generator is overall and I can determine the best recommendation.
