What type of trailer hitch does it use?
This system requires a 2″ receiver hitch, class II or greater. Only a Yakima 1″ adapter can be used to fit to be a 1″ hitch. Q: Can I add more bikes? A: No. Class II hitches can carry a maximum of 4 bikes. Q: Can I use this product if I have a spare tire on the back of my vehicle? A: Probably not. Receiver hitches and spare tires vary greatly, so only a test fit at a dealer will tell you for sure. As a very rough gauge (no promises) the BigHorn 4 has about 8 1/2″ of clearance between the hitch-bolt hole and the inner side of the upright mast. If it looks like that’s enough clearance, try one on at your dealer. Use of a hitch extender is not recommended as it would increase leverage and lack anti-wobble features. Should you decide to use one anyway, be advised that stability and capacity will be reduced. Q: Is there a weight limit? A: Maximum load is 4 bikes/120 lbs. Q: How much play is normal (when in the hitch)? A: Hitches, like anything else, will have slight variations in dimensions
