MAXXHAUL Trailer Hitch Riser for 2" Receivers — 6" Rise/Drop Height Adapter, 500 lb Capacity

The MAXXHAUL 50909 Trailer Hitch Riser is a heavy‑duty 6" rise or drop adapter for 2" receivers that levels and raises hitch-mounted accessories without towing capability.

If your bike rack, cargo carrier, or mobility platform sits too low or rubs the bumper, this solid steel riser provides controlled vertical correction to improve fit and clearance. Designed for 2" Class III/IV receivers, the unit offers a dependable 500 lb tongue weight capacity for non‑towing accessories and comes with two hitch pins for immediate installation. A black powder coat protects the steel from the elements so the riser stays functional outdoors.

How does this riser change accessory height and clearance?

The MAXXHAUL riser gives a fixed 6" rise or 6" drop to move an accessory away from the bumper or ground. It repositions the shank vertically so racks and carriers sit level and clear obstructions.

• 6" vertical offset in either direction for major correction
• Triple pin‑hole positions to fine tune shank length and reduce bumper contact
• Designed specifically for hitch accessories, not for towing trailers

Will it fit my vehicle’s 2" hitch receiver and accessories?

This adapter is made for standard 2" receivers found on Class III and IV hitches and works with most common hitch‑mounted accessories. Check tongue weight limits and accessory installation instructions before use.

• Compatible with 2" receiver openings used on many SUVs, trucks, and vans
• Supports up to 500 lb tongue weight for non‑towing loads
• Use only for bike racks, cargo carriers, mobility platforms, and similar accessories

How durable and weather resistant is the MaxxHaul 50909?

The riser is fabricated from solid alloy steel and finished with a black powder coat that resists rust, chipping, and abrasion. Its construction and finish are intended for regular outdoor exposure and heavy use when carrying accessories.

• Heavy gauge solid steel body for structural strength
• Black powder‑coated surface to slow corrosion and maintain appearance
• Includes two 5/8" hitch pins for secure, immediate mounting

How do the triple pin holes help with installation?

Three shank hole positions let you adjust how far the accessory sits from the receiver, giving you incremental clearance choices to avoid bumper interference or ground strikes. That adjustability also helps match different accessory geometries without cutting or welding.

• Three distinct pin locations for incremental shank length adjustments
• Helps level accessories across varied vehicle rear profiles
• Offers practical clearance options without permanent modification

Who this product is for: The MAXXHAUL 50909 is aimed at owners who mount heavy hitch accessories but need extra vertical adjustment — cyclists using rear racks, families with cargo carriers, or customers using mobility platforms who require additional clearance. If you have a 2" receiver and need to lift, lower, or level a non‑towing accessory while maintaining a strong, weather‑resistant connection, this riser is a straightforward, install‑ready solution.
