## Description

desertcart.com : Yakima Hitch Mount Swing Away Rack Adapter, Tailgate Bike Carrier Accessory Compatible with Class III & IV 2-inch Hitch Racks, Adapter Only, BackSwing : Sports & Outdoors

Review: Great item - Worked absolutely perfect for me, mine is mounted on the back of a transit van and the doors swing open, and the bikes have to clear so with the bikes, arranged one way they can’t open all the way, but a bungee fixed that problem easily.
Review: Highly Recommend for Vehicles with Liftgates - I waited too long to buy this. It is heavy-duty and makes hauling bicycles so much more convenient. I don’t have to remove them and the rack now when I need to get into the back of the car. It swings effortlessly out of the way. The hitch lock is a threaded bolt, which can be inconvenient when installing or removing, but it allows the arm to be securely and firmly attached so that it is quiet and stable.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how far does it swing out?**
A: On a jeep, it allows me to swing out my tailgate fully. I’m pretty sure it would allow any vehicle to open their access door fully as well, even those that open vertically.

**Q: how far does it reach out from the hitch**
A: Roughly 12"...Check with Yakima for exact distance.

**Q: could I use this in conjunction with a hitch mounted cargo carrier?**
A: Yes you can, it has a 2” hitch on the outer side where you stack any normal hitch mounted device.

**Q: What is the distance this sticks out to the passenger side from the reciever? It says 30" but is that the overall length? My exhaust pipe is 28" over.**
A: I guess I don’t understand the question... On the back of my PU, it clears everything even with bikes on a Hollywood rack. It works for us.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Swing hitch extension works great
*by S***R on June 28, 2019*

We ordered this product so that we could swing our bike rack (which fits into our hitch) off to the side when we need to open the back doors of our van. The swing action is very smooth and the parts are tightly fit together so there is little movement as we drive down our dirt road. Folks might want to know that it swings to the right as you are facing the vehicle. I personally wish that it would swing the other way because our van side door is on the right. The bike rack does not block the side door, but you do have to walk around it to get to the back. Not much of a problem though.
