Curt Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2014 Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class- Video
Today on our 2014 Mercedes Benz GLK class, we're doing a test fit of the Curt 20 by 48 cargo carrier. That part number is C18110. This works for both 1 1/4 and 2 inch hitches and has a weight capacity of 300 pounds. Now although it does have that high weight capacity, it is very lightweight, so it's easy to put into and take out of our hitch. First thing we are going to do is take a few measurements here. Starting off with our ground clearance, we're going to have about 15 inches to the bottom of that bolt, and that's is because we have a raised shank in the back, which will lift our carrier even higher than our hitch. Overall to our vehicle, we are adding about 26 inches and our closest point is going to be about 6 1/4 inches away. As for exhaust, we have dual exhaust on the vehicle today, it comes straight out sitting about 10 1/4 inches away, so if you are worried about heat sensitive materials, I'd keep those inside your cargo area. more
