Is
this hitch "Hidden"?
|
|
"Hidden
Hitch" is a brand name. It does not imply that the hitch is not
visible when installed. We NEVER state that any hitch we sell is
hidden from view, as all hitches are visible under the vehicle…
some more than others. We offer a PDF to view the instructions on
all brand hitches. From the installation information, pdf file, and
engineers drawing of each hitch you must decide if it meets with
your satisfaction prior to purchase.

Yes It's
really in there. The manufacture does make it difficult to
locate sometimes. Check inside the receiver tube or crossbar
of your hitch.

What if my
hitch does not fit?
|
|
Your
hitch may arrive with mounting flanges pushed out or in
sometimes up to several inches that occurred during shipping
. The welding process when manufactured can sometimes
"draw" a hitch flange in or out of shape also.
This is easily remedied and will take just a few moments to
correct.
The flanges need to be pushed back to original position to
the hole centers will line up for a solid installation. We
hold the hitch firmly and bump it against a wooden
electrical pole at our shop until the hole centers in hitch
match the vehicle. You may also cover the flanges with a
thick towel and use a brick or block wall. A large hammer
and wood block could work too. This will not affect the
integrity of the hitch. This works well and does not chip or
mark the hitch. ps: It is not difficult :):)
With the vehicles wider frames, especially the SUV's one can
expect to see more of this situation.
Here
is an example of a customer who called very unhappy and said
his hitch did not fit:
The
spacing between the holes was too close by approximately
1/2". (37.5" center-to-center vs. the specified
38.06" As a professional mechanical Engineer I'm not
prone to using the "get the bigger hammer" approach
to things that don't fit.
We determined that one side of the hitch was bent. Your
suggestion of bending the side plates of the hitch to
provide the required spacing worked. Though I was hesitant
and skeptical as to whether I could bend it. I was able to
make the required adjustments and make it fit after some
work. Alan 2/9/07
NOTE:
There is no return / no refund for hitches arriving as
stated above.

Your hitch receiver may
arrive with the mounting flanges pushed out or in that
occurred during shipping. These flanges can be easily pushed
back to their original position so the holes will line
up for installation.

Will your
p/n XXXXX bike rack work with p/n ZZZZZ trailer hitch?
|
There is no data base that
will inform one of compatibility between racks and
vehicles. There simply are too many different racks and
too many vehicles. We do offer extensions on our site when
there is a clearance issue.
