2” hitch receiver installation

[minidok]

The swing arm appears to move the rack back pretty far without raising it up. I would worry about grounding while on trails.

I see your point too. Clearance is reducing. It takes about 12" plus the space from the rack itself. On the other hand, the swing arm would give me the freedom to fully operate the tailgate.
How long is the extension you have mounted to gain a little more clearance?

Mine is 9" extension and 4.25" rise. The 1Up tray sits level with the top of the Gren's tires.

Thanks @Tom109 . We have a couple of 1UP racks and I hadn't considered yet what/how to use them. Question ... I love the anti-wobble corner expander ball that 1UP racks use in the receiver ... how's the wobble now?

I switched to this pin. It locks out the wobble without the need for additional clamps. It is awkward to install on the Gren hitch, so hopefully that complicates theft.
