    You might run into a problem if the tow bar ever contacts the rack if the angle between the coach and dingy is high such as entering a gas station, shopping center and such. I shorten the tongue of the bike rack so it was not over top of the pivot point of the tow bar. Might be better to add a hitch to the dingy and install the rack on it.
  • Mount on front of MoHo. Just add light weight reciver hitch to slide bicycle carrier into. Added benefit is the front reciever, can be used for many different things.
  • The Roadmaster pictured above has the largest load rating I have seen for these hitches. I also use this hitch for towing my toad (bottom receiver) and carrying a cargo platform (upper receiver). I can carry the cargo platform or my bike rack in the upper receiver without a problem.

    I have never noticed any interference between the rack or platform and my toad. I actually have an older tow bar (Roadmaster Stowmaster 5000) with a ball socket, and have a ball hitch in the bottom receiver.
