The Kuat Pivot Swing Away Hitch Extender part # PVP20B is designed specially to be used with the Kuat NV 2.0, NV Base 2.0, and Sherpa 2.0 bike racks. However, I don't see any reason that you could not use the swing hitch extender with a hitch mounted spare tire holder like the Curt Trailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier part # C31006 so long as the weight of the spare tire holder and the weight of your spare tire/wheel do not exceed 250 lbs even on rough terrain. The weight of your spare tire holder and spare wheel/tire can also not exceed more than 50% of the vehicle's tongue weight or trailer hitch's tongue weight capacity.

The Kuat website says the Pivot 2 can’t be used on any “recreational vehicle”. Do you know why? I have a class B Travato van with a 2” hitch on the back.
