Looks good -simple instructions-
Definitely pleased -thanks again



by:

I only gave an average rating because the carrier was not easy to assemble without slight modification. The bolt holes for assembly were blocked by the steel mesh. I cut the mesh that covered several of the holes with a rotary disc cutter.

I will share this information with the manufacturer as this is an unusual case.



by:

I received the package in a pretty rough exterior condition but everything was fine inside.

The previous comments about having to cut away the expanded metal flooring in order to install the carriage bolts wasn't true in my case. Apparently, this quality control issue has been addressed by the manufacturer.

Assembly went well and wasn't complicated. A different carriage bolt with a longer square shoulder should be used. The shoulder doesn't grip too well to the square cutout in the frame and even while pressing firmly on the head of the bolt, it wanted to turn as I was tightening the nut.

All in all, it seems to be a solid product and I look forward to using it.

Ive used this a few times in the past year and its very useful and strong.



by:

Exactly what I was looking for even though it took a while to get it great service and communication with me about the order

Great I use it all the time



by:

I wish the load capacity was a bit higher, but overall I am satisfied with the cargo carrier. It is perfect for lugging my two dog crates behind my vehicle instead of inside the vehicle. Thank you for offering a dimensionally larger cargo carrier than most retailers.



by:

Love it! I use it on my 2016 Nissan Frontier. Allows me to fit one more washer or dryer for my laundry business!



by:

Great product. Always get the best from e-trailer. Prompt and quick. You are the best.



by:

The carrier works great. I wanted it to transport a foldable 3 wheeled bike. It fits on the carrier just right. Putting together was not difficult for me. Have not had a chance to actually go anywhere with it, but I can tell it will be just fine.



by:

Great sturdy product. Well made with a lot of space. This will last quite a while.



by:

Does what I expected.2010 FJ Cruiser. Assemble was very easy. The problem with past posts of getting the bolts to pass thru the wire mesh has been fixed as well as the reflective tape. Great job on delivery. I will use this cargo carrier for travel and when out surf fishing. The wagon I have will just fit on this carrier and make getting to the beach and back a cleaner experience.



by:

Product was delivered quickly and had detailed instructions on assembly. Thanks.



by:

Product is exactly as expected, very good quality, easy to assemble and serves the purpose I bought it for.
I simply used a device to prevent rattling and it works great.
I can also still open the trunk on a Atlas with some cargo on it which makes things very convenient.
I would recommend w/o any hesitation.



by:

After some searching this was the answer to our need. I did some modifications to accommodate our 2 folding tadpole trikes and the total weight of the trikes and rack is still more than 50 lb's below the listed capacity. We have driven in 4 states with no problem.



by: 05/24/2024

I haven't opened yet. The second pkg actually arrived.



by:

I love it. It will do exactly what I need it to do.



by:

I purchased this product to transport my fish house. It works great! Customer service was excellent with speedy shipping. I highly recommend this product and etrailer.com



by:

I’ve owned this cargo carrier for about a year now and I’m very happy with the purchase. It’s very sturdy and I appreciate that the frame has numerous points to hook up ratchet straps. I typically use it to transport plastic bins for camping and it was a huge help when moving. It’s also made it easy to rent outdoor power equipment from Home Depot.



by:

Etrailer had the best price, free shipping, and it arrived faster than they estimated!



by:

Looks like it will do the job



by:

Have had for a year. I haul a 30” Toro mower with trimmer, blower and gas on this beast on my 2018 Jeep Wrangler. Awesome.



by:

Purchased this to carry an e-trike on the front of my truck. It was the only one I could find that would accommodate the 30" width of the trikes rear wheels.



by:

Works great! We use this as an add on for our work truck so we can carry large equipment because our bed holds all of our permanent equipment.



by:

Well built, easy to assemble and convenient holes for tie downs.



by:

Seems well built & sturdy, will know more when we complete trip Tom Maryland with trike on it.



by:

It was extremely difficult to find a hitch carrier wide enough for the e-trike I am buying. This one works beautifully. All the parts were there. The instructions are easy to follow. I have it almost all put together. And FYI, I'm a 71 year old lady doing this on my own and it was very easy!

  • Tail Light Kit For 32x48 Reese Cargo Carrier # PS1040100
    We do not have a tail light kit for the 32x48 Reese Solo Cargo Carrier # PS1040100. A better solution may be the Pro Series 24x60 Railed Cargo Carrier # 63153. Then you will need to purchase the Light Kit # 20174. The lights recess into the carrier and are well protected by the carriers railing. If you have any further questions please feel free to reach back out to me anytime and I would be more than happy to further assist you in your towing endeavors.

  • Can Reese Solo Cargo Carrier # PS1040100 Be Used at Rear of 5th Wheel Trailer
    Hey Richard, so the Reese cargo carrier part # PS1040100 would be a great option at the rear of a fifth wheel trailer. Unlike bike racks cargo carriers don't have the explicit "can or cannot be used at rear of trailer" rating but what we have found when we have called them is that they strongly recommend using the ones that are not folding like this Reese carrier so it would work well for you.

  • Recommended Light Weight Hitch Mounted Cargo Carrier At Least 30 Wide by 48 Long
    The lightest weight hitch mounted carrier we have available is the 32x48 Reese Solo Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 400 lbs # PS1040100. This carrier weighs approximately 70-lbs and will fit in your 2" hitch receiver and is 47-3/4" long x 31-3/4" wide x 2-3/4" deep long when measured inside the rails with the ramp folded up. If you could go a little smaller, we have the Flint Hill Goods Hitch Mounted Aluminum Cargo Carrier - 500 lbs # FHG59ZR which is 48-3/16" long x 21-1/16" wide...

  • Recommended Ball Mount For Towing And Accessory Mount For Cargo Carrier
    For your application, I recommend the Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount with 2" Receiver for Bike Racks and Cargo Carriers - 7,500 lbs # D210. This will allow you to tow your motorcycle as well as carry your grill with a cargo carrier like the 31x47 Pro Series Solo Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 400 lbs, # PS1040100. This cargo carrier is 48 inches long x 32 inches wide x 3 inches deep. It also has a 4 inch shank rise. You will want to make sure your cargo carrier will allow your...

    For a generator that measures 33.4 inches long x 27.6 inches wide x 28.4 inches high and weighs 270 pounds, I recommend using the 32x48 Reese Solo Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel # PS1040100. This cargo carrier is approved to withstand the added force/torque on the back of your fifth wheel camper. We've had many neighbors who have given this carrier rave review when used on a trailer. The inside dimensions of the Reese carrier are 47-3/4" long x 31-3/4" wide x 2-3/4" deep. As far...

The Curt comes with 50-1/4" long x 30-7/8" wide x 3-3/4" tall internal dimensions. The ramp is fully collapsible so that you can fold the carrier up against the rear for storage. As far as weight capacity, the carrier has a max capacity of 500 pounds. It is important to note that the length of the shank measures 7-1/4 inches from the center...

  • Can The 32x48 Reese Solo Cargo Carrier # PS1040100 Be Used Behind a 5th Wheel?
    I cannot find anything which states you cannot use the 32x48 Reese Solo Cargo Carrier # PS1040100 behind your 5th wheel. You might consider the 32x48 Reese Steel Solo Cargo Carrier and Folding Ramp # PS10401-10402 as a better option as the ramp will make loading your Lectric trike much easier.

  • Pivoting Hitch Cargo Carrier Setup that Can Carry Honda Generator
    I have a similar pivoting hitch adapter to the Kuat you mentioned that will work great for you but the # PVD20B only works with Kuat bike racks according to Kuat. The Yakima BackSwing Swing Away Hitch Extender part # Y02483 can be used with cargo carriers like the Reese Solo Carrier part # PS1040100 which measures 32 inch by 48 inch and would fit the generator dimensions you listed having.

    With the size of your Champion Generator 200953(23.4" wide, 27.9" long and 21.7" tall I recommend using the 32x48 Reese Solo Cargo Carrier # PS1040100. This has a 47-3/4" long by 31-3/4" wide inner tray and can support up to 400lbs so you could carry additional items with your 90lb generator if needed. Do be sure to verify with Coachmen you do not exceed any capacities on your hitch or trailer with the additional items. We do have the Cover # CH97FR which will protect your generator when...

  • Shank Clearance of Pro Series Solo Cargo Carrier # PS1040100
    The Pro Series Cargo Carrier you mentioned, part # PS1040100 offers 12 inches of clearance between the pin hole and closest portion of the basket portion of the carrier. The distance between the hitch pin hole and the bend in the shank is 5 inches, but the bend is pretty gradual. If you look at the photo I provided, you will see the shank dimensions.

  • Cargo Carrier Deeper Than 25-1/2 Inches That Can be Used on RV With Bumper
    We have an option that may work for you, but there isn't a bumper-mounted cargo carrier that is deeper than 24 inches. The best option we have is to add a bumper-mounted hitch to accommodate a deeper carrier; what you can use are the following: - etrailer RV Bumper 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver # e38HR - Reese Solo Cargo Carrier # PS1040100 The Reese Solo has inside measurements of 47-3/4" long x 31-3/4" wide, and while it isn't nearly as long as the etrailer bumper-mounted carrier, it is...

  • Cargo Carrier Approved for Use Behind Trailer
    The cargo carrier we have which is approved for use behind a trailer is the Stromberg Carlson Cargo Carrier # CC-100. This carrier fits 2" hitches and measures 8" from the center of the hitch pin hole to the closest part of the platform. It is 60" long x 23" wide and has pre-drilled holes along its raised edges for tie-downs. I do recommend using the Anti-Rattle Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # 63232 to lock your carrier to your hitch and minimize the amount of rattling you'd experience....

  • Light Kit Recommendation for Reese PS1040100 Solo Cargo Carrier
    I'd recommend using the etrailer License Plate and LED Tail Light Mounting Kit for Hitch Mounted Cargo Carrier Item # e98943-44LED which you'd mount to the face of the rear edge of the # PS1040100 carrier. The driver's side lamp even features a license plate bracket that's illuminated which would allow you to easily relocate the plate in case what you have loaded on the carrier blocks the vehicle's license plate. I've linked to a video showing a typical installation.

  • Cargo Carrier That Will Fit a 42" Long by 31" Wide Trike
    Given the dimensions you mentioned I think you are referring to a cargo carrier rather than an actual trailer. We do have a couple options for you. The 32x48 Reese Solo Cargo Carrier # PS1040100 or the 32x48 Reese Steel Solo Cargo Carrier # PS10401-10402 if you want a ramp to make loading your trike easier. Both of these are 32" wide and 48" long.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch and Cargo Carrier for a Jayco 19RD Travel Trailer
    I have exactly what you will need to use a cargo carrier on the back of your Jayco 19RD Travel Trailer. For this I recommend using the Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs part # 13703. This hitch has a 350 lb tongue weight capacity, 2" receiver tube opening, and fits trailers with frame rails spaced 22" to 72" apart. The hitch can either be bolted or welded in place. For a cargo carrier to attach to this hitch and house your generator and gas tank, I recommend the Pro Series...

  • Compatibility Of Swing Away Hitch Bike Rack With Cargo Basket That Has Extender
    The Curt Dual 2" Receiver Tube Adapter, 8" Extension # D-192 will reduce your trailer hitch receivers tongue weight capacity by 50%. The swing away adapters like # 8890313 will not work prior to the adapter based on design. So you will need to make sure you have the clearance for the adapter height. The 48x32 Reese Solo Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 400 lbs # PS1040100 or similar will give you the 12 inches of clearance from the hitch pin hole. For your bike carrier, I recommend...

  • Dimensions of the Floor of the 48x32 Lets Go Aero GearCage FP4 Slide-Out Cargo Carrier H01380
    The floor of the 48x32 Lets Go Aero GearCage FP4 Slide-Out Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 300 lbs Item # H01380 is 27 inches by 48 inches so it would hang over some but not much. Pro Series carrier # PS1040100 has useable platform dimensions of 47-3/4" long x 31-3/4" wide so it would have more than enough space for your generator. I have included a link to a video review of this carrier for you. Either of these carriers has more than enough weight capacity for your 200 pound generator.

  • Best Cargo Carrier for Generator on an RV
    I would love to help but finding a cargo carrier with everything you need is going to be an extremely difficult task. The main issue is going to be size/weight. Most cargo carriers that can accommodate the 27.6" depth of your generator are not going to be under 50 lbs. Also, only cargo carriers with a fixed shank can be used on the back of an RV due to the added stress. Therefore, the only cargo carrier we offer that will allow you to carry the Honda EU7000iS Inverter Generator on the...

  • Can the Reese Solo Cargo Carrier Be Used on a Keystone Cougar Travel Trailer
    Yes, the 32x48 Reese Solo Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches # PS1040100 can be used with your 2017 Keystone Cougar Travel Trailer. You are going to need a trailer hitch to use this cargo carrier so you'd need to add one with # C13702 if you don't already have one or you can just use the 24x40 etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper # e99050 instead which will bolt up to your bumper.

  • Will the Reese Solo Carrier # PS1040100 Fit a 35" long x 35" wide x 6' tall Refrigerator?
    I have a solution for you. Unfortunately, the 35-inch length/width of your refrigerator will not be able to fit on the 32x48 Reese Solo Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 400 lbs # PS1040100. With that being said, a great solution for transporting your refrigerator is the Detail K2 Mighty Multi Utility Trailer - 6' Long - 1,295 lbs # K2MMT4X6. The K2 trailer has a bed dimension of 72" long x 48" wide x 7-1/2" tall and can hold up to 1,295 pounds. If you decide to go this route, you...

  • Can Trailer Lights be Added to a Cargo Carrier
    What I recommend for adding lights to your cargo carrier is light kit # 20174. To mount the lights you will also need 2 of bracket # BK70BB. You can use self-tapping screws to secure the brackets to the top, rear rail of the carrier. This set up is the most cost effective option. It would plug into a 4-way trailer wiring connector.

  • Can the Shank of Pro Series Cargo Carrier PS1040100 be Flipped to Lower the Platform
    I checked with the manufacturer and they told me that the hitch shank on the Pro Series Solo Cargo Carrier # PS1040100, can be flipped either way to help with clearance when opening the cargo area door on your vehicle. So what you can do is flip the shank in the orientation that lowers the platform of the carrier a few inches as opposed to in the up position which would raise it.
