Hitch Extender Adapter

[Jeff Miller]

Another solution I've seen is to weld another receiver to the top of
the one on your coach, use the top one for your bike rack and the

steel on the bottom of the rack and drilling two holes to take bolts
with lock nuts which fit over the extender and then was clamped to
the extender by running the bolts through another identical piece of
steel on the underside of the extender.
