  • Does Extension for etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumpers Reduce Weight Capacity
  • That's a good question, and the 500 lb weight capacity of the 24" x 40" etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper # e99050 will not be reduced if you add one or even two of the 24" Extension for etrailer Bumper Mounted RV Cargo Carrier # e99052. The cargo carrier will still have its 500 lb capacity even with the extension (or extensions), though keep in mind you will want to verify the weight capacity of your RV's bumper to ensure you don't overload it.

  • Do Cargo Carriers Have to be Rated for Use on the Back of an RV
  • Although a bike rack must be rated for use on the back of an RV, a cargo carrier does not. The 24x60 Curt Cargo Carrier part # C18152 will work for you. This carrier has less moving parts than folding versions which is ideal for use on the back of an RV because bike racks and cargo carriers mounted on the back of an RV have much more movement and stress in comparison to bike racks and cargo carries attached to the rear of a passenger vehicle due to the distance from the carrier to the axle. The...

  • Carrying 4 Bikes and a Hitch Mounted Cargo Carrier on an RV Trailer Hitch Receiver
  • Using the Malone Dual Hitch Receiver # MPG544 will be difficult with a bike rack and cargo carrier. The bike rack will not give you much room for cargo on the carrier. Even if the bike rack's shank has a rise it'll only be 3 or 4 inches. You may be able to add a front mount hitch on your RV and then carry either the cargo carrier or bike rack on the front. Since an RV has a longer wheelbase than a typical vehicle not all accessories are designed to withstand the additional bouncing around...

  • Spare Tire Mount For RV Cargo Carrier.
  • You can use the Spare Tire Carrier for Yakima Roof Cargo Baskets - Lockable # Y07076. It can be used in, underneath or mount to the rear of your cargo carrier. If you have a cargo carrier that mounts via hitch receiver I recommend the Roadmaster Spare Tire Carrier # RM-195125. This gives you a spare tire mounting location without sacrificing your hitch receiver. This will lower tongue capacity by 33 percent. If you need a bumper mount use the Ultra-Fab Folding Spare Tire Carrier for Trailers...

  • Does The etrailer Cargo Carrier For RV Bumpers Come With A Spare Tire Carrier
  • The 24x84 etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper # e96ZR is just the cargo carrier with brackets to allow it to mount to a 4" x 4" and 4-1/2" wide x 4" high RV bumper. You would need to slide the cargo carrier to one side of the bumper and use a mount like the Ultra-Fab Folding Spare Tire Carrier for Trailers and RVs # UF15-954730 in the available space.

  • What is the Longest and Widest Option For a Bumper Mount Cargo Carrier on an RV
  • It looks like you were looking at the bumper mount cargo carrier options for your RV. The 24"x84" etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper # e96ZR is the closest option to the 56" x 90" that you are wanting. You are not going to find a cargo carrier that extends out from your bumper 56". This is because it would extend too far out and cause extra stress, because the further the weight is extended the more stress it puts on the bumper. Technically you could get multiple of the Mount-n-Lock...

  • Recommendation for Using Cargo Carrier Between RV and Towed Vehicle
  • In order to secure a cargo carrier between your RV and towed vehicle, you will just need to start with the Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter # RM-077-4. This will slide right into the 2 inch hitch on your RV and provides two, 2 inch receivers on the other end. The bottom receiver will be used for your tow bar, while the top receiver can be used for a hitch-mounted accessory like a cargo carrier. Once this is in place, it is just a matter of choosing a cargo carrier that works well...

  • Is the Curt Aluminum Cargo Carrier RV Approved?
  • Our carrier is rated for highway speeds so you won't have any issues there. We do not recommend using our Aluminum Cargo Carrier # e98991 on the back of an RV. If you want to have a cargo carrier for your Forest River Sunseeker Motorhome, we make one specifically for RV Bumpers. 24x60 etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper Part # e99049. This one is rated for highway speeds as well but is RV approved.

  • Spare Tire Carrier Capable Of Being Mounted To an RV Cargo Carrier
  • With most RV bumper mounted cargo carriers I find the Offset Trailer Spare Tire Carrier # DL22120 as being a great option to hang the spare tire off the back of the carrier. This has an offset to raise the spare tire up and reduce the chances of it dragging on the ground on steep driveways. You will likely need shorter mounting bolts as the ones included are designed to fit a frame up to 3" wide.

  • Will The etrailer Cargo Carrier For RV Bumpers Fit A 2-1/2" RV Bumper
  • No, the 24x84 etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper # e96ZR requires a 4" x 4" or 4-1/2" wide x 4" high bumper for installation. The alternative to this would be to use a hitch mounted cargo carrier like the 24x60 etrailer Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches # e98874. If you don't have a 2" hitch on your RV then you can install an adjustable fit hitch like the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs # C13704. This hitch fits a frame width of 22" to 66" Wide. To know what your frame width is you'll...

  • Availability Of A Bike Rack/Cargo Carrier Combination Rated For RV Use
  • I am sorry but we do not offer a RV bike rack/cargo carrier combination. Hollywood rack used to make such a carrier, but it was not rated for RV use, and it has been discontinued for about a year now. We do offer RV rated bike racks like the Hollywood rack Rv Rider # HLY64FR. This is made with RV use in mind, and can carry two bikes weighing up to 80 lbs apiece. We also have cargo carriers like the # 63153. This is a 24" by 60" platform rated for 500 lbs. Unfortunately there is not...

  • Weight Capacity of the 24 Extension for etrailer Bumper Mounted RV Cargo Carrier
  • The 24" Extension for etrailer Bumper Mounted RV Cargo Carrier # e99052 is basically 500 lbs, but the reason it doesn't have a listed weight rating is because this is an extension piece for the etrailer RV Bumper Cargo Carrier like part # e99049. These carriers have a 500 lb weight capacity and the extension doesn't add any weight capacity. Please note that the extension piece is meant to be used with the carrier and not just by itself as just the one arm support isn't enough to be a proper...

  • Can the Curt RV Bumper 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver Be Used to Carry a Scooter
  • The Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13701 is going to be the better option for your cargo carrier and scooter. The Curt RV Bumper 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver part # E-100 that you referenced does indeed have a 350 lb tongue weight rating however, the bumper on your RV is likely less. You can check this by contacting the manufacturer but I do believe the Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver would be better suited for your application. Please keep in mind that if you are...

  • 2021 Forrest River 2883WS Cargo Carrier Recommendation
  • For your 2021 Forest River 2883WS I would recommend a hitch mounted cargo carrier over a bumper cargo carrier, as Forrest River does not recommend mounting anything the the bumper although people have done it in the past with no issues. Because of this reason, I recommend using something like the 24x60 Reese Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches # 63153. This carrier is 24x60" which is slightly smaller than the 24x84 etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper # e96ZR you referenced. However, these two...

  • Can Cargo Carrier be Used Behind an RV
  • There is a cargo carrier you can use on an RV but it is recommended it be one with a completely solid shank as opposed to one which folds and tilts; the reason for that is the amount of movement at the rear of an RV will be much greater than the back of a passenger vehicle and a solid shank will give your carrier the added stability to handle that much movement. The cargo carrier I recommend is the Curt Cargo Carrier # C18152 because like the etrailer.com Cargo Carrier it measures 60"...
