Yea ask dealer if they can contact the previous owner, the owner probably forgot and might want it.
They don't have their info.

I've had the Hollywood Racks on a 35 for over a year now with no problems. I'd have preferred a hitch-mount, but only last year did my lady decide we should would bike ride more often.

$200 bucks later I regretted not getting the tow package back in 2018. Sooooo many, many more selections.

Came across a really big issue.
Lifted my hitch cap, and found out there's a safe in the hitch! Wtf.
Dealer had no idea, and they don't have the combination.
Is there a way to get this out??

Ah, the HitchSafe. I received one as a Christmas gift a couple of years ago.

If you can make a simple metal shim, you should be able to DIY the removal:

I'm new to the forum and came across this post. Did you figure it out? We had one on our Tundra. Those pins are grade 8 steel. Not sure you CAN get it out unless you can drill out the silver pins. Curious to know your outcome.

Do you need an extender for the 1UP quick rack?
I didn’t need an extender, but my spare is only 34” (LT285/75R17). I also requested the reverse brackets when I ordered my 1Up, which angle the rack down instead of up.

I need a bike carrier for my JL with a 38x13.5x17 spare tire, either hitch or spare tire mounted.
Could anyone recommend a mount?

I purchased a Hyperax 2024 Volt 2 for our 2 e-bikes. It's been great and has a max capacity of 160lbs. The bikes did fit but the bike's pedal closest to the spare would rub against it so I purchased a hitch extender which provides plenty of clearance.

It was no match for the hackzall. Less than a minute and it was off.

I use a Kuat Pivot + Sherpa, clears my 37x12.5 with plenty of room to spare.
Only pic I can find right now but will take one tomorrow with the swing closed if it helps you at all.
The Pivot has an added benefit of being used with a basket, too.

Oops late reply.
When i got the first bike, the seller threw in the bike rack. It holds both bikes fine.
Got a 2nd bike for the wife, both are dual motors and a hoot to ride.
Had to return a single motor bike, as it could not go up my 19° driveway, which is about 1200' long. Was not fun pushing a heavy ebike up that.
Says it does 40 mph, got it up to 35, but 35 mph is not realistic on a bike IMO, you need full protective gear at that speed. We keep it around 25 mph max, as we don't even have helmets yet.
