I just bought a used Yakima hitch rack for my 2003 explorer. I have the factory bumper 1-1/4 hitch receiver.
I just installed it on the truck using a Hitch Adapter 1-1/4" to 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver.The problem is that the rack sticks far out now.
Any economical solutions other then buying the $180 2" hitch that installs under the factory 1-1/4? I could do this however it then doubles the price I paid for this top of the line used rack (yakima Swing Daddy)
I was thinking of drilling an additional hole in the adaptor so that I could slip it into the factory receiver further?
Thanks
