Test Fit: Kuat Pivot 2 Swing Away Hitch Extender for Bike Racks on a 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Video

Hello Dan, thanks for reaching out. The Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack for 4 Bikes #KU77FR is indeed compatible with the etrailer Class 3 Hitch #e98853. The hitch has a 2" receiver and a 525 lb tongue weight capacity so more than enough for 4 bikes.…

Hey Gary we don't have any pictures of the EcoHitch part #EH22SR installed on a 2024 Toyota Sienna but it would be the best option if you were worried about ground clearance and appearance as only the hitch opening hangs below the rear bumper.…

Thank you for all of the detailed information! The Kuat Pivot 2 Swing Away Hitch Extender #PVP20B is my absolute favorite solution for vehicles with a spare tire because it places the hitch pin hole the bike rack connects to 12-3/16" further…

Thanks for the information. The first thing you are going to want to check is the clearance from your hitch pin hole out 5-3/16". This is where the Kuat Pivot item #PVP20B begins to rise. The top of the Kuat Pivot sits 5-3/16 of an inch above…

Thanks for reaching out and for all of the information given! You definitely have a situation in which you'll be going against what a bike rack manufacturer says so just know that while I can give you some advice, "technically" it…

Thank you for all of the info! Long story short I recommend using the Kuat Pivot 2 #PVD20B that swings to the driver's side of the vehicle. It accomplishes what you're needing done, is a solid piece of hardware, is the easiest to use, and it…

Most of the time people want the pivot to swing out to the passenger side of the vehicle like what the part #PVP20B offers. This is because if you were for some reason on the side of the road and needed to get into the back of the vehicle you could…

I do have an option for you but I can't say I have ever heard of someone mounting a bike rack directly to the tongue of their trailer nor do I have an option for this. The best option to carry your bikes while towing is between the trailer and…

The best dual hitch adapter we have is the Curt #D210 which has a ball mount platform on the lower portion and an upper hitch opening that an e-bike rack like the #HLY64FR could fit. Since boat trailers normally have longer tongues this typically…

The Thule DoubleTrack Pro XT Bike Rack #TH92BJ is a great choice for a bike rack and the adapter sleeve that comes with it won't affect the operation of the anti-rattle hitch bolt. The adapter sleeve just takes up more space overall and when you…

Yes, it will. The Kuat Pivot Swing Away Hitch Adapter part #PVP20B can be used with the Thule T2 Pro XTR Bike Rack for 4 Bikes item #TH69TX. You shouldn't have an issue with weight because you are driving a truck but the Kuat Swing Away reduces…

I can definitely see how the specs can be a bit confusing. That said, I can say with 100% certainty that this will still work perfectly for you. The 42 pound per bike capacity you are seeing for the Kuat Piston Pro X #KU98VR is ONLY when installed…
