Curt Folding Hitch Mounted Basket through Ford

[gerby151]

I searched the forum but didn't see anything showing how this cargo carrier looks in place (especially on a squatched Bronco) so I thought I would add a few pics incase someone is like me and want to use your Fordpass reward points to purchase a few things from the dealership. I didn't have a ruler handy, so I used my Yeti for reference on how much space you have between the tire and the rack. It will not fold up but I am ok with that aspect because I am going to mount the pivot point upside down so I can open the tailgate (will not open when rack is in place). Still contemplating giving this one to my daughter for her Jeep and buying a rukRack but it works for now and no $$ out of pocket.

That's a smart place to pit the cup....until I'll find some way to knock it over.

I bought the same rack from Amazon. Work great. Have to turn off the rear proximity sensors so the warning gong does not keep sounding.

I need one of these. Very well may be what I get with the points.

can You update with pics with the Kurt pivot ?

 

[gerby151]

Will do when I get home this afternoon

Okay not entirely thrilled with the backwards lean angle I am getting with the pivot point install upside down. Obviously it is designed to have the pinch point at the pivot to help hold it level. I measured inside the tube where it connects at the pivot and it is 1 3/4" so I might try to find a piece of bar stock that has the center machined out for the pin and bolt to put inside the tube to help with that. The tire does clear with it pivoted down though.

How close is the clearance when opening the swing gate? Do you think it would with a non-sas wheel?

I have the same issue with my non sas bug bend. Can’t open the tailgate. So I guess the one option is to switch the pivot point or buy an extender.

 

[gerby151]

Here was my solution. Now I can pick which height I want for this and my hitch. I really only use the 3rd slot down most of the time but it is good to have options

Oh that’s cool. What is it called?
