Pivot 2 Swing Away Extension

A hitch receiver is a square tube attached to your vehicle that allows you to connect various accessories, such as a bike rack or trailer. If you plan to transport bikes, a hitch receiver is essential as it provides a secure and stable attachment point for your bike rack, ensuring safe travel.

A locking hitch pin is a security device that locks your bike rack to the hitch receiver, preventing it from being easily removed. This added security helps protect your investment by deterring theft of both the bike rack and your bikes while you're away from your vehicle.

A swing away extension allows the bike rack to pivot to the side, providing easy access to the rear of your vehicle without needing to remove the rack or bikes. This feature is especially useful for vehicles with limited rear access, making it convenient to reach your trunk or tailgate.

Robust steel construction means the bike rack is made from high-quality, durable steel that can handle heavy loads and withstand rough conditions. This is crucial for safety and longevity, ensuring that your bike rack remains reliable over time, even with frequent use.

The choice between driver-side and passenger-side swing options depends on your vehicle's layout and your personal preference. If you frequently access the rear of your vehicle from the driver’s side, a driver-side swing may be more convenient, while a passenger-side swing might be better for easier access in parking situations. Consider your typical usage to make the best choice.

Yes, a bike rack designed for a 2-inch hitch receiver is compatible with any vehicle that has a matching hitch receiver size. This common size is found on many trucks and SUVs, making it versatile for use across different vehicles, as long as they have the appropriate hitch receiver installed.
