[QUOTE="Ballermaris, post: 426025, member: 18206"] In a problem I faced, I needed to find an option to carry a Bicycle rack that will support an Ebike. The problem is I have also to tow a travel trailer too, but using a spare mounted bike carrier was out due to the distance spacing between the trailer and the area where the rack would sit. An initial thought came to mounting the carrier on the trailer frame, however, that would not be doable because of the wireless brake controller mounted on the trailer frame. After contacting Smittybuilt, who made the bumpers on the Wrangler, the option was to install a front-mounted class 3 receiver. As it was, a unit made by Curt manufacturing was located and ordered. While modifications will still be made to make the hitch bolt up, the solution to mount the bike carrier for the Ebike will work. Because of the specific model, I am able to recommend the use of the Curt 41432 for the front side of both stock and non-stock Wrangler JK's. [/QUOTE]
