I need a cargo carrier &amp; 1 1/4 hitch for small 2013 Dodge Dart, along with this. Carrier has builtin riser.What adapter should I use, straight or rise

A straight adapter would work, but this carrier only works on 2" stinger. It won't work on a 1-1/4 hitch because it clamps around the 2" adapter.

To get the answer to your question go to the PullRite web page, they have complete compatability listings there. It's a great hitch for a short bed pickup.

As Tim below answered yesterday, you need a 2" hitch receiver. There are 2 hitch receiver sizes, 1 3/4 " and 2". If you have a 1 3/4 " receiver you can buy an adapter at harbour freight to take it up to 2" but it will elongate the distance that the basket will stick out behind the car.

This riser has a slight rise "20 moa." It's a little long to extend from your gas block. I would go with a 2 or 3" long flat riser depending on what your needing it for. Weaver and YHM Yankee Hill Machine shop make them. Hope this helps.

I use it on my honda pilot and the bumper gets in the way of it completely folding it up. There are 2 up positions you can put it in, all the way up and most of the way up. I am only able to put it most of the way up and i use a piece of a wood chip to push it up as far as i can where it is against the bumper. I have driven with it up that way with no issues. If you hitch receiver is recessed back far you may have the same issue as I do but if not you should be fine.

I put the hitch carrier on a Lexus RX350. It is level to the ground. It does have a small wiggle but otherwise sufficient to carry plenty of gear for a day at the beach or pier. I did not use the anti-tilt attachment.

I have a class V hitch on my truck...standard equipment for a 1 ton Sliverado truck. This hitch pin is just a little too short. I still use it but the barrel slides on just far enough to only use 3 of the 4 combination numbers.

I ordered my hitch without rails because I already had Reese Rails mounted. Perfect fit ! You can buy rails and mounting kits separately. These hitches work with standard rail kits. Keep shopping.

I have not even opened the box, however I got a cherry picker from harbor freight that only had a short arm where I needed a much longer arm, mine was a one ton model. so I took out the inside bar with the chain and went to the metal shop and got a much longer one had to do a little grinding to get it to fit inside to slide. I believe the one I replaced it with was 5 or 6 ft long drilled the holes and lifted 450 Lbs with no problems at all. what I planed on doing with the vistil is I bout a cheap hitch and I'm going to weld it to it stick it in my car hitch and I have bought a cheap champion electric winch with 12" leads to hook it to my car battery and just winch the blasted thing. I bought mine because I had a 900 Lb gun safe fall on me. So It should take care of your needs just fine. 200Lb is alot lighter than 450 and 900 lbs. remember those numbers are working load limits not breaking load limits. So you should be fine and you can remove it whenever you want do to the hitch. I would thing if you need 60 inches you could probably get away with 1/4 " thick steel inside bar and alot longer. hopes this helps remember the harber freight ones are even thinner. Just remember if you hook it to a dock use long lag bolts with big washers. I would have no hesitation on it. If I was computer savy I would send you a picture of mine. Never bent, swayed or buckled.

I would recommend a 0.5" riser. I used the risers which came with my Bushmaster, however Truglo sells both a 0.5" & a 1.0".

The upper connector is for an accessory only, like the bike rack I use while towing a car connected to the lower connection. Other hitches are made to raise or lower clearance.

We have a flex and had plenty of clearance We had the 60 inch hitch cargo carrier. With smaller cargo carrier could always get the swing away option which was not available with larger carrier

Somebody makes receiver hitch extensions for use with big truck bed campers. I've seen those carry heavy trailers. If you built the cycle carrier substituting that piece for the piece that comes with the kit it might work. Pop ups don't have much tongue weight. This is idle speculation. I haven't tested it, but that's how I'd do it

I have a 2009 Toyota Venza and unfortunately I am getting drag in and our of my driveway. Harbor Freight has a Hitch Extender/Rise. I am going to give it a try.

Personal I chose a 1 inch riser...it works great, just remember to use a lock tight on the screws.

this carrier uses a 2 inch hitch receiver if your vehicle has the beefier 2 inch receiver then this bike carrier is awesome i'm guessing your Rav 4 has the smaller 1 & 1/4 hitch receiver. u would need an adapter for 2 inch to 1 & 1/4 but for a carrier that size i haven't found an adapter strong enough or flush enough to handle the sway and weight of 5 bikes. you might want to call Allen and see if the have on that is built for 1&1/4 receivers or a guaranteed adapter that will eliminate sway and support the weight of the carrier with 5 bikes... good luck P.S! Allen Sports does make a hitch rack filler plate converting the 2 inch to a 1&1/4 it looks sturdy you may have to try it out and see how it works

There is an adapter with the rack for the 1.25 inch tow hitch. I have a bigger hitch. With my hitch I had trouble getting the rack tight. It seems to me that this would be tougher to do with the smaller hitch size. I was very fussy about having the rack tight with the hitch and used some rubber shim. That might not be necessary but it made me feel better.
