Special thanks to Madison for helping me out in a pinch. I needed this extender overnight and she made sure that I got it in time. As for the extender, its exactly what I was hoping it would be and more. Not only does the threaded hitch pin lock the extender in place from side to side, the ball bearing locks it into place from top to bottom; AND the receiving end of the hitch is double-walled for added strength. I am very impressed with the quality of the Rocky Mounts hitch extender. FYI - I used this to extend the bike rack past the over-sized spare (35") on my 2016 Jeep. Adding 2 pics to show. Thanks again Madison - great customer service!



by:

This hitch extension gives me easy access to the cargo section of my truck by allowing me to open the tailgate completely.
I called customer service and asked why the prices difference in the 3 models, and which she would recommend. She said the most expensive model had a great anti-rattle device and based on that, I ordered it. Very impressed with it. Actually feels like its part of the frame!



by:

I bought a hitch extender without the anti-wobble system and I just hated how much my bike rack with my very expensive MTB bounced around. I just installed the RockyMount extender, and it's absolutely locked into the hitch with NO wobble at all. No comparison and I highly recommend this product!



by:

I bought the extension to go with my RockyMounts bike rack. The anti wobble mechanism on the extension and bike rack work perfectly together for an incredibly solid mount.

Great. The anti rattle hitch pin system does not become loose with use. Very solid



by:

Super high quality and rugged product! Amazing customer service too!



by:

Had a very specific need for this and it worked flawlessly. Very pleased with the quality of the product and packaging.



by:

Exactly what I needed.



by:

This extender increased the clearance between spare tire and bike rack allowing transport of my two bikes on my travel trailer. Solid connection and pleased with purchase. No issues. Lock seems to be good quality. Will be taking off this week for first time in 10months to inspect. Do not expect any issues.



by:

The etrailer hitch extender with antisway threaded pin is excellent for my Jeep Wrangler. The cost was reasonable and the quality is excellent. I put it to use a few hours after the speedy delivery and it worked great!



by:

The best thing about RockyMounts hitch adapters and extenders is the locking mechanism. It doesn't rattle around back there when I'm offroading with the bike rack. Love it!



by:

Matches up perfectly with my Rocky Mounts Bike carrier. These products are great, heavy duty and well engineered. No rattles, totally solid in the receiver hitch.
I mounted a door mount spare tire carrier on my Sprinter and I needed to extend the bike carrier beyond the tire. Perfect length for this purpose. Thanks



by:

Delivered in good shape, well packaged and timely. Good service as usual.



by:

It solved my problem and works great!



by:

The hitch is great and I use it on my Bronco to deal with the spare tire and still use my bike rack. This is the perfect length and with the stabilization so it doesn't rattle it is great.



by:

Good quality, nice fit, very solid, no wobbles



by:

Fit and works great, anti rattle system and locking pin in one is a great featere



by:

Great product. Needed some extra room to mount a bike rack to my truck with a very recessed hitch. Really like the stablization feature and the locking pin, both of which are solid.



by:

Fit tight in the hitch and quality lock



by:

Works great. Used it to extend out under back of camper for a bike rack. The tightening device inside was the selling point for me. I needed something solid for going down the highway.



by:

It’s perfect for our Jeep and bike rack! We can now open the back gate without removing the rack. The bikes are secure and do not interfere with the spare. Love the locking feature!!



by:

While I haven't had the opportunity to test it going down the road yet, I'm confident that after installing this 8" hitch extender it's going to work flawlessly. It is very heavy duty and a test of my own proved that it does not move around or sway. You can see what a big difference the extra 8” made in the photographs. Thank you E-trailer for the expert advice and customer service. You went out of your way to help me find what I needed.



by:

Perfect fit, easy install and works great with Hollywood ebike rack!
Thanks Eric for the great service!

Very Solid. Finish is very nice

Should work as expected...

  • Hitch Extender Recommendation to Fit Yakima OnRamp On RV
    Thank you for reaching out and providing all of the details! I have a solution for you to extend the Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes Y36FR further out from your Arctic Fox 5th wheel RV but I think it's at least worth noting 2 things; the weight capacity of your trailer hitch will be cut in half when using the extension (like you said) and that the OnRamp isn't rated for use at the back of a 5th wheel as Yakima states there is too much movement so the rack can't handle it....

  • Carrying A RockyMounts BackStage Bike Rack On My 2021 Ram ProMaster Landed Gear Spare Tire Rack
    I do have a solution for you, provided you do not have a factory trailer hitch. In order for this hitch bike rack to fit on your vehicle, you will need a hitch extender if you need 11" of space. Unfortunately, anytime you add a hitch extender you reduce the maximum tongue weight of the trailer hitch by 50%. The factory trailer hitch of your 2021 Ram ProMaster 3500 is 220 lbs. Adding the hitch adapter will change the maximum tongue weight of the trailer hitch to 110 lbs. The weight of your...

  • Recommended Hitch Extender for a Bike Rack
    Yes, your assessment is correct. The RockyMounts Hitch Extender LS w/ Hitch Pin and Lock item # RKY10011 will reduce your hitches capacity by 50%. You will still have more than enough capacity to carry your 1 Up 4 bike carrier. However, this extender is only recommended to be used with 3 bikes or less. If you are carrying 4 you will want to use the Brophy Hitch Extender item # HE06. It does have the same 50% reduction but it has no limit on the number of bikes you can carry. You add the...

  • Is There an Anti-Rattle for the Blue Ox Hitch Extender for Tow Bars
    I do have an option for you but I don't really know of a way to give you everything you want with the Blue Ox Hitch Extender for Tow Bars part # BX88265. If you use the hitch pin hole closest to the end of the shank you might be able to fit the Blue Ox Hitch Receiver Immobilizer II part # BX88224 and add the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 2" Hitches part # e98880 but that is all I have for you. Instead, a much better option would be the RockyMounts Hitch Extender LS part # RKY10011...

  • Comparing the RockyMounts Hitch Extenders RKY10011 and RKY10008
    There are a few differences between the RockyMounts Hitch Extender part # RKY10011 (LS) and part # RKY10008. The first is that the LS model has a premium lock core body which more durable. It also has a better anti-rattle design so there will be a further reduction in movement.

  • Will RockyMounts Hitch Extender Allow 180 lb Tire Carrier to Work on 2018 Toyota 4Runner
    The RockyMounts Hitch Extender LS # RKY10011 will absolutely work for you on your 2018 Toyota 4Runner based on the weights you gave. A hitch adapter, like an extender, reduces the overall capacity of your hitch by 50 percent. Since you mentioned your tongue weight capacity is 500 lbs, the use of this extender will reduce that to 250 lbs. But since the total weight of your hitch-mounted tire carrier, wheel, tire and gas can is 180 lbs, you are under the capacity and good to go! I have...

  • Can I Use the RockyMounts BackStage on 2021 Ram Promaster 3500 with Rear Spare Tire
    I'll start out by saying that if the manufacturer of the vehicle states a 220-lbs tongue weight limit, then that is the safe limit they've tested for the frame; there may be other items at the rear of your coach that will also put stress on this portion of the frame. You will always be limited by the lowest rated component in any hitch/vehicle/accessory combo and in this case the vehicle's frame can only handle 220-lbs of tongue weight, so what the hitch is rated for won't matter.

  • Trailer Hitch With Best Bumper Clearance for 2019 Ford Transit T150
    So I was unable to find your order based on your email or name, so I'm not sure which hitch you bought from us, but what I can tell you is that based on installations we've done, the trailer hitch for your 2019 Ford Transit T150 with the best bumper clearance is the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75912. All of the hitches for your van are going to be recessed under the bumper a bit, but the Draw-Tite will be less than others. If that's what you have and are still running into problems...

  • Can You Flip RockyMounts Hitch Extender LS Upside Down
    In regards to the RockyMounts Hitch Extender LS part # RKY10011, the hitch pin has to be inserted from the passenger side for the anti rattle to engage. That said, you should be able to simply turn the extender upside down so that the hitch pin is then inserted from the driver side.

  • Will 2-1/2 inch Hitch Extender Cut Capacity When Towing Trailer
    Hitch extenders/adapter cut the capacity of the hitch they are installed in by 50 percent due to the added leverage and movement. So we have hitch extenders like the part # HR26 that fit a 2-1/2 inch hitch you have to make sure the diminished capacity won't be an issue by verifying the capacity of the trailer and hitch.
