Basket Style Cargo Hitch Carrier

The cargo hitch carrier has a huge 500 lb weight capacity for hauling coolers, boxes, tools, firewood, and many other belongings you may not be able to fit into your vehicle. The carrier has a “basket” structure which includes a usable 48" x 18.25" x 5" steel mesh surface, 5" steel tube rails, and a heavy duty 2" steel hitch tube which fits into your hitch receiver providing primary support for the cargo carrier. The side rails also feature holes for securing your gear with a cargo net. Overall dimensions of the basket cargo carrier are 50" x 20" x 6". A glossy black powder coat covers the carrier and hosts a suitable defense from rust, road grime, and outdoor elements.

To install, just slide the main support tube into your trailer hitch receiver and insert a hitch pin to keep the basket from sliding out during travel. The carrier only weighs 28lbs making installation only a one person job. (A hitch pin is NOT included but can be purchase separately.) This style of cargo carrier will work with 2", class III or greater, hitch receivers. Trailer hitch receivers recessed up to 6.5" can us this carrier too! Optional 1-1/4" - 2" adapters are available to allow the carrier to work in class II receivers. Included with the cargo hitch carrier is a 1 year warranty! Please Note: Exceeding your trailer hitch rating may result in product failure and personal injury. Discount Ramps.Com assumes no liability for improper use of this product.
