I have a 2" receiver. I used the 1.25" adapter to get it to work, is there a pin I can buy so that I don't have to bolt the rack to the receiver?

Can't answer as my husband bolted it on so it was more secure. I looked at the other answers from two people and u might use their suggestions

You should be able to get a hitch pin at just about any automotive store. I think a 3.5in by 5/8 will work. I'm not sure it will be stable enough using just a pin, but I could be wrong. I didn't like either way so I bought a hitch mounted vise plate that is made for the 2 in. receiver and it comes with the correct pin. You'll need to drill some holes.

You can probably find a pin that will work but the connection will be so loose that it won't be usable.

* Bolting the rack to the receiver improves the security when leaving the car/bike in parking lots. A locking cable works well too. * Yes. Contact a sport dealer in your area - perhaps a high end bike shop, large RV dealer, hitch dealer to obtain satisfaction. They will have a pin or adapter for you.Hope this helps you. I also tied short ropes to tie the lower rack to tie the tires for greater stability when driving at high speed.

I use a standard hitch pin for my receiver hitch. I'll measure it this evening.CN

Not sure what you are trying to make work, this product will only help if your 2" hitch adapter is loose in the receiver. Do you have a 2" to 1 1/4" adapter?

This will fit on a 2" receiver , so if the receiver is smaller it will not work, you will need a different lock pin size!

Yes, it is 2". Fits a standard 2" receiver. I recommend a locking hitch pin. This thing works great and is really solid. A locking hitch pin makes it rock solid and becomes an extension of your vehicle. Really nice.

Best selection of rack adapters is at rei. You could try them out or measure them there without buying

This carrier has a 2 inch receiver. You should be able to use the cotter pin that comes with the hitch. Or, you might contact Uhaul. Cheers!

You must get an adapter to make this work as it is 2". Amazon sells the Curt 2" to 1 1/4" adapters. $20.

Yes, you use a standard pin that are used on most all hitches. The bolt you see gets tightened so the bike rack or whatever you are mounting does not move to much from side to side. The bolt holds the rack firmly in place.

I remember now 100% no it won't fit the the receiver because it has screws.. It didn't come with pins.. Sore has a brain fart

I am not sure how you are putting it into the receiver? But I have a smittybilt 3/4" d-ring I attach mine to, that attaches to a 2" hitch and goes into my receiver.

This one fits a 2" hitch straight and clean. No adapter needed. It will not fit a 1.25" hitch

I agree with glen, there is no way. Even with a 24port patch panel and all the wiring it seems fairly flimsy. I did improve on its flimsiness a bit by not using the screw holes that are in the center of the rack.

I don't believe it does. If you go to your local hardware store and ask for one that fits a 2" receiver, they should be able to get you the right one.

No, the model that I had purchased was for a 2" receiver. I have a 2" to 1 1/4" adapter which works nicely. I am not a big fan of this bike rack! Realized this after it was purchased. It's application is for a single cross bar type bicycle. My beach cruiser won't sit properly.

Both of the hitch pins are industry standard sized pins, so all the holes on all receiver hitches should fall under the sizes of these two pins. By chance if your receiver hole has been drilled out or modified then this would be the only time I would worry about. You can google the two sized holes if you are concerned about the size and see if your bolt diameter is the size of one of the pins.

There is no pin in the "middle" of the metal connectors shaped like half circle. You just insert the metal connector into the stereo input on back of receiver.
