CURT 500 lbs. Capacity 60 in. x 24 in. Black Steel Basket Hitch Cargo Carrier (Folding 2 in. Shank) and Vinyl Bag Combo Kit

CURT cargo carriers are a simple yet effective solution for maximizing the storage area of your vehicle. The advantage of a hitch-mounted cargo carrier is that it can be mounted on the rear or front end of the vehicle as long as the vehicle is properly equipped with the right receiver hitch. Mounting a cargo carrier in the front opens up the rear receiver hitch for towing a trailer or adding a second carrier or bike rack if needed. The hitch-mounted design also makes installation quick and easy. CURT basket cargo carriers feature a strong bolt-together design and are made with heavy-duty carbide steel and a tubular construction for increased strength. One of the advantages of the basket style is its 6 in. H sides. These provide extra security and peace of mind during travel. This particular basket cargo carrier features a 2 in. x 2 in. bent, folding shank to provide more ground clearance and to fold up and out of the way whenever necessary. It also comes with a strong mesh platform to accept up 500 lbs. of cargo and has a durable black powder coat finish to resist rust, scratches and UV damage. To help keep your cargo even more secure during travel, this trailer hitch carrier comes with a water-resistant vinyl cargo bag with a heavy-duty zipper and flap. The bag straps into the hitch carrier and provides protection for your items against wind, weather and the elements.
