For 2" hitches, extension gives you more clearance for your bike rack or trailer away from the vehicle. The insert tube is threaded, by bolting in the extension, you get rid of 80% of the play and rattle vs extensions that use just a pin. Included is the 8" extension, hitch bolt, lock pod & 2 keys. If you want to match the key to another Rockymounts product, ask your dealer or add the lock # you want in the comments field at checkout. Allows BackStage, MonoRail & SplitRail racks to fold flat on Wrangler and other cars with spare tires. Works well for bike racks including Thule ® Yakima ® & Kuat ®. Great for camper vans & camper trucks.
Optimized for bicycle hitch racks, includes anti wobble, locks, tool for installation, e coated & powder coated to keep the rust at bay.
