Does this unit mount into the 2" receiver in such a way to clear the rear mount spare tire on an RV?

I installed mine on a Chevy Traverse. Etrailer.com may have instructions on how to install a hitch on an RV.

yes but with this winter in the northeast this year I could not use my travel trailer just yet

I have the same problem...a small travel trailer (TT) with a spare tire setup that slides into the receiver on the back of the TT. I bought this to accomplish the same thing you're looking for. Unfortunately, the diameter of the TT spare wheel itself extends too far down and blocks access to the lower receiver. I purchased another adapter to accommodate a fold-down ramp with a 2" tongue (200lb capacity) - and simply use the ramp to carry my small Honda generator and fuel tank. John

Can not answer that second part with the spare tire I am sure they make extensions for the receiver.

Unclear - this adapter is just the receiver. You must use/attach your own bike rack, so if you have a rack that fits in a 2" receiver for your car/truck, then this adapter WILL permit you to use that same rack on your camper.

It fits on the 2" hitch, but not sure if it will fit with a tire on the back. It sits pretty tight to the back of the vehicle.

Does your vehicle have a externally mounted spare tire on the back end of the vehicle?

I'm not sure. I have it mounted on the back of my camper. I do have a bumper mounted spare but it is mounted off to one side. I do not think the bike rack extends far enough past the mount to clear a centered mounted spare. Hope this helps.

There is an adapter that fits on to the bike rack before you insert it into the receiver hitch. The adapter allows the rack to insert into the 2" hitch and not move around.

I wish I could help. I have a 2" receiver and a reducer that fits. Perhaps you could shave down the edge to make it fit. Mike R.

Yes, it actually is built with a 1 1/4 inch steel shaft to fit your receiver. It includes a plastic sleeve that allows it to work with 2 inch receivers.

Hi Kamau,It is designed to be used in the 1-1/4" receiver. You just need to make sure that you do not exceed the weight limitations of the 1-1/4" unit. My bike rack is designed for a 2" receiver but one of my cars has a 1-1/4" receiver. I used this unit to carry the rack. With 2 bikes you are talking maybe 75 pounds....well with-in the weight limitations on the smaller receiver. Just do not exceed the tongue weight or towing weight of the 1-1/4" adapter.

Yes, you have to actually use a spacer provided to use it with a 2 inch receiver.

Yes it does. It's actually for an 1-1/4 inch receiver and it comes with an adapter to make it fit in an 2 inch one.

the mounting screws are two inches long and it hangs down pretty far. don't know about your RV

No, this is only compatible with a 2" hitch receiver. Adapters are available, but keep in mind, you would be supporting the beefy 2" by a 1.25" piece and would cause the rack to be cantilevered out even further (a lot of stress on the adapter).

Yes, that's what mine is mounted to! works great. It leaves a bit of a gap between the stock and the reciever, but nothing too bad.

It should, the bracket mounts flush with the surface using screws. The bolt that attaches the tire is just a carriage bolt and could be switched out for a longer one if needed. Mine holds a 15 inch spare trailer tire about waste high.
