 Not the answer for me! Jun 30, 2009
By N. Kirk
This seemed like a great solution to my dilemna. I have a Jayco pop-up camper and I wanted to use my hitch-mounted bike rack to take bikes while camping. Once you attach the hitch ball, the second hitch receiver isn't high enough to place the bike rack in before hooking up the trailer. There's not enough clearance. You have to hook up the trailer first and then insert the bike rack. My pop-up camper has the standard wheel on the tongue of the trailer to raise and lower the tongue of the trailer and it does not lower such as some boat trailers. It stays vertical and is right where the bikes would hang from the bike rack so when turning it would more than likely hit the bikes. Not to mention my propane tank for the trailer is also right there. I'm sure it works great for a boat trailer. If you have a boat trailer and are considering this, try looking on ebay and buy them used from those that tried it with a camper! I'm giving it a 2 out of 5 since it does what it claims, just doesn't seem to be universal.

Valley 75090 Receiver Tube Sep 22, 2011
By Jerry Flynn
Needs to be taller. With the bike rack in place, there is not enough clearance to raise the Stowmaster 5000 tow bar high enough to clear the ball. Everytime I connect or disconnect the car, the bikes have to come off then the bike rack has to come off. I'll have a weld shop modify it for probably more than the hitch cost me but Valley should make the receiver a couple inches taller. Maybe an inch would do it -- their testing should determine.

Pleased May 08, 2011
By RSS NOVA
I have only used this trailer hitch once to make sure it will work for my application. I'm using it to allow me to use carry bicycles on a bike rack while pulling a pop-up camper. On a trial run I did not have any problems, though the clearance between the trailer and the bicycles appeared to be a bit close on a tight turn. Would have rated the hitch a 5, if I were absolutely certain there will not be problem.
Shipping and receipt from the vendor went smoothly with no problems.
 Great System May 12, 2011
By Steven J. O'neil
I bought one of these mounts to allow me to mount my bike rack and tow my Coleman camper. After a full summer of camping I have no complaints about this system. I mounted 4 bikes and towed my trailer without any problems.
I highly recommend it.

Didn't use it for what it was ment for. Feb 11, 2009
By Ed W.
I have a 2007 Kia Sedona Mini Van with a receiver hitch.
The Mini vans (most anyway) sit low for easy access for the little ones to get in and out. So when I attached my hitch carrier Lund 601008 Cargo Carrier Side Bar Attachment it would bottom out when driving out of my driveway. also it seemed to hang to low for my comfort.
So what I did is I cut the tongue off of this (had no use for it and it would bottom out as well so off it went) and insert the hitch carrier into the receiver hitch part. This raises the carrier 3-4 inches higher and I can still open trunk lid. it doesn't extend much further and since the carrier is rated for 500lb and this top part of the receiver is also rated for 500lb it seems safe.
Used it for a bunch of holiday trips and it worked like a charm!
