Does not fit properly

You will NEED to buy "anti-rattle” hardware if you purchase this! It does not fit properly and it will sit very loosely in your hitch receiver.Anything you put into the receiver will also NOT FIT PROPERLY and will require tightening hardware to stop it from rattling and possibly FAIL- which could be catastrophic! I should have paid attention to prior reviews stating these same facts. This product is DEFECTIVE and I would NOT recommend purchasing it. IT IS NOT SAFE.

Pros
  • Raised hammer head pool cleaner upr
Cons
  • The added weight could affect the balance of the vehicle

Quality made: my feedback

Worked perfectly for my 2021 Honda Pioneer 1000-5. I have a 7 x 12 atv trailer that I lifted to match the trucks hitch without a big drop hitch and a 4 x 8 trailer that I pull around the house for yard work. This dual receiver works perfectly for both trailers and is long enough that I didn't need the hitch extender I ordered to clear the exhaust. I am very happy with this product. It's just what I needed.

Pros
  • Good value
Cons
  • The added length may make it difficult to park

Bad quality not worth the money

The part that a bolt screws into for stability bent and eventually tore off after lucening the bolt for the 3rd time total. I don't have faith that this will last and am surprised the warranty period is so short. I only bought this a couple months ago and I can't get product support. Honestly go to Lowes and pay a bit more for something that may last more than half a season.

Pros
  • great hitch adapter
Cons
  • The added length may make it difficult to load and unload the trailer

The dimensions of the 2" receiver part that goes into your hitch is about a 1/16th of an inch too small. This causes excessive side-to-side and up-and-down movement. I welded a few pieces of steel to a side and the top to shim it to the correct dimension to achieve a proper fit.I like the unit overall, but wish it was properly sized from the factory.

Pros
  • Very strong great for my Polaris side by side
Cons
  • The added length may make it difficult to drive in narrow or winding roads

poor quality: my feedback

The welds to hold the set screws broke right away i hope that is not a sign of the rest of the welds quality Thanks for attention.

Pros
  • This item was exactly what I needed!
Cons
  • The extension may reduce the resale value of the vehicle

Very sturdy. good for me

Feel sorry if someone rear ends me at low speed. It’s very sturdy and provides a barrier my plastic rear bumper. Worked as expected.

Pros
  • Worked as expected
Cons
  • It may not be rated for heavy loads

No pin included best in my review

No pin is included. Apparently you are supposed to understand that because the posting does not say that a pin is included that no pin is included.

Pros
  • Perfect!! Well built! Exactly what I was looking for!!
Cons
  • The added length may create additional sway and bouncing for the trailer

Needs more length between receivers

The double receiver enables me to pull a trailer as well as hitch up a bike rack and carry bikes. However, the distance between the top and bottom receivers is too short to allow me to attach the trailer after the bike rack is installed. You have to attach the trailer first. So that means, you have to remove the bikes before you can remove the trailer, and that is problematic. The way I solved this problem is to add six inches between the receivers by cutting the pipe and welding additional…

Pros
  • There's nothing that I dislike about this item.
Cons
  • The extension may rust or corrode over time

Poor Packaging on my review.

The packaging was severely damaged in shipping. The packet with the Anti Rattle bolts tore open and one bolt was missing. The other bolt scratched up one side of the hitch. Even with those comments, the hitch is exactly what I needed! The structural integrity of the hitch is solid and I'm pleased with it.

Pros
  • Heavy duty Was concerned the joint would be flimsy - it is not good product good price
Cons
  • It could make the vehicle and trailer more difficult to maneuver

It’s sturdy best in my review

We plan on using this on our RV, we haven’t had a chance to try it, but it’s very sturdy and it looks like it will serve its purpose!

Pros
  • Solid hitch adapter.
Cons
  • The extension may create additional blind spots for the driver

Lowered our carrier perfectly

Our Harbor Freight scooter wheelchair carrier was too high on our hitch to run our scooter on with the attached ramp without bottoming out. This adaptor lowered the carrier enough so the scooter runs up just fine. Very strong construction.

Pros
  • The only thing about this is I could not find an anti-rattler for it because the inside is too thick.
Cons
  • The added length may make it difficult to merge or change lanes

Wrong out diameter!

I should have heed the warning others have expressed. The outer diameter is too small and causes excessive play when installed in the receiver. I own others that provide a much better fit. I will need to weld in some shim material to get this one to not rattle/twist excessively. I would recommend trying another brand.

Pros
  • Exactly what I needed! Thank you!
Cons
  • It may be more difficult to find a suitable parking spot with the added length

Works like a champ.

A renegade is a small jeep and you can't fit much inside so this dual receiver makes it easy to add extra racks & tow a trailer. I did buy hitch stablizer plates to keep the bike rack from wobbling as it's got a loose fit.

Pros
  • Using it in my side by side so the hitch doesn't drag
Cons
  • It may require additional maintenance to keep it rust-free

Dual hitch for my opinion

Made attaching cargo carrier much easier. Carrier was to close to rear bumper, hitch brought carrier higher and farther away from rear bumper. Also moved carrier out of the exhaust flow from vehicle.

Pros
  • This gave me the additional separation I needed between my tow bar and cargo rack. Love it!
Cons
  • It may affect the vehicle's suspension and handling

Simple, solid. good for me

This is one of those things that either works or it doesn't. It works.Also, I liked that they included two bolts that can be threaded in to lock in accessories without a hitch pin.

Pros
  • Item as described, great quality product.
Cons
  • The extension may make it difficult to access the trunk or rear of the vehicle

good hitch: my feedback

I use this on my RV. I am towing a car on th eloser and placing a bike rack on the upper. l It was a bit tought to install due to the openings being tight. Otherwise this is a well made, sturdy double hitch. I don't anticipate any problems.

Pros
  • Couldn't use because I had to use extension for my receiver so it made it to long.
Cons
  • The extension may not be compatible with all hitches

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Strong, well thought-out

This adapter works well. Some competing brands only tack-weld the parts together. This item was welded correctly, all the way around each joint. The extension for the accessory rack is placed high enough that there is no interference with the hitch when towing. Nice price, too.

Pros
  • Good product!
Cons
  • It may affect the vehicle's alignment and tire wear

Plenty robust but be prepared for a very sloppy fit

The sturdiness and functionality of this is fine but the fit into a standard 2” receiver is incredibly sloppy. One would think that with all today’s technology, it wouldn’t be that hard to make a 2” hitch extender fit in a standard 2” receiver. There’s a solid 16th of an inch difference. The result: this thing wobbles all over the place. If you buy this, you’ll either need to shim it or be prepared for some serious play.

Pros
  • Good would buy again
Cons
  • It may not be covered under the vehicle's warranty

Perfect for Jeep Renegade

For Renegade owners that don’t have the $1200 bumper receiver, this is a life saver. Put a cheap, but low, receiver on and this raises it enough for bike racks, boxes etc. Good solid welds, and with a stabilizer doesn’t wiggle around too much.

Pros
  • Sloppy fit, missing bolt. Label peels off !
Cons
  • The extension may increase wind resistance and reduce fuel efficiency

Very sturdy - my new review

Used this to elevate my cargo basket due to my hitch location being right next to the exhaust. It works great and feels super heavy. Hasn't rusted or anything yet

Pros
  • Works for my carrier and trailer to pull with my car
Cons
  • It may increase the risk of accidents or collisions
