Questions & Answers

How is this mounted on the hitch? Do you have any pictures? It seems that the image provided has no indication of its content?

onto the outside of the tube of the receiver.

What kind of connector does this have? Does it wrap around the receiver and use a pin from the receiver?

This pin is used by the receiver.

When measuring from the bottom of the hitch to the bottom of the roller, how much is the measurement? It would be great if you could share how much clearance you have gained ?

2 5/8 inches is about right. When you use this roller, you are decreasing clearance rather than gaining it. By contacting the roller first, the receiver will not drag or dig into the ground when backing up. A 2011 Toyota RAV4 FWD had a motorcycle carrier on which I mounted mine. I had to drag it in and out of my driveway.

know whether the center of the hole and the base of the flange are the same size?

One percent of the world's population. The number 3". This hitch fits perfectly around a 2" Reese hitch that is 2 1/2 inches outside. This is a very good product. A preventative measure against the hitch digging in

This hitch plate fits 2 inch receivers and will protect the hitch from damage
5/5

Occasionally my 37' Class A RV struggles to make its way in and out of a driveway without dragging its tow bars. I bought this to protect these tow bars. In any case, this will take the brunt of the damage and has served its purpose well thus When you find that you are also dragging the hitch on poorly sloped driveways, you might want to consider it as well. This is an easy to install package. The installation took less than 2 minutes. Nonetheless, it has a considerable amount of play between the wheel and the axle, which I will probably fix by placing a pair of plastic washers on each corner.

This is just a wheel, no hitch pin is included The hitch pin and retainer clip are not included even though they appear in the item pic
3/5

As shown on the box, they are also pictured as if they are inside, but the box is not able to hold Ads that are false. There is an option to weld it on, but the quality seems poor as the interior Does nylon exist? b) The bushing on the shaft bolt is quite loose.

We weld it on permanently, but it works very well
5/5

In a nutshell, The Ultra Fab Hitch Protector should be used along with it. The kit comes with two wheels. Our final solution was to weld them on, but we were very satisfied with the end result.

A great way to protect my RV! There is a major problem with vehicles with long rear overhangs (RVs! That scraping damage is prevented by this roller
5/5

The thing seems bigger than I anticipated, but its size doesn't really matter since it does its job just fine.

The drag wheel is mounted on the hitch
4/5

While the receiver mount fits the receiver, the wheel tends to dig into the asphalt and does not roll smoothly.

The job was perfect for her
5/5

To put them on the back of the low-riding trailer that I always drag at gas stations, I bought two of them. We bought two hitch pins and drilled holes in the trailer so they can be easily plugged in and taken off if we A very well-made product with a great appearance.

I found it to be effective
5/5

My motorhome is a C class and I put this on the trailer hitch. It meant that instead of the trailer hitch digging into the road, it lifted the motorhome and left no damage behind.

An added layer of protection is always nice
5/5

To the point where this has hit, I still haven't reached a steep incline. Although it looks a bit overkill, it appears to be a far better option than dragging the hitch and gouging it into the.
