MeeFar Hitch Mount Cargo Carrier - ASSEMBLY and REVIEW
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 มิ.ย. 2024
- In this video I will show how to assemble and review the number one best selling hitch mounted cargo carrier on Amazon. It has a rain proof bag with 16 cubic feet of space and a folding arm that is angled for more ground clearance. It is sold by Xbeek and has a weight capacity of 500 lbs. It comes with a hitch stabilizer, a cargo net, and straps. It is also known as a tail basket. I will put the product together, install it onto the receiver on my Honda Odyssey, take it on our first trip, and review it's performance.

This was so helpful showing both assembly and practical use along with your overall review at the end. Thank you!
No problem and thank you for the kind words!
This is such a wonderful, easy to understand video. I was lucky to get two plates that had the name on it. Thank you so much.

Very helpful. Thank you!
No problem. Glad I could help.
Awesome content❣️ Thank you!!!
Thanks and no problem!
Brother, this video was a blessing. Saw this listed on that one Bezos store but was skeptical. Sold. ( ...also, @3:35 :P )
Someone finally noticed, lol.
Thanks so much. I wasn't sure how to install the anti rattle plate.
No problem, glad I could help!
Thanks a lot it helps
No problem.
Very cool
Thanks!
helpful! and the rustoleum spray looks better than the original :)
Ha ha thanks!
thank you for the video. the end caps are sold at Lowes or where they sell metals.
No problem and good tip there!
I'd probably get a few cans of PB Blaster "surface shield" and spray it inside the tubing best i could to preserve it even more...
Good tip!
Great video and extremely helpful. On my Xterra, the license plate would be completely blocked as it's down right where the hitch is. Is there a way to attach a license plate to the cargo carrier? Thanks
Thats interesting. My suggestion would be using self-tapping screws or drilling holes and using nuts and bolts.
Is this for sure the correct order on the bolts and washers? I always thought the flat washer was to be on the same side as the bolt head to keep ot from digging into the metal.
Yep, this is correct.
very helpful video. thanks. wondering though , how does it do when its folded up ? does it bounce around a lot ? it looks really close to the van
I had it folded up the whole time I was driving around once we got to our destination and it does not bounce around at all. I would say the only downside to folding it up is that you can't open up the trunk of the van without folding it back down if you need to get in there.
OK. Thanks @fixitflip
No problem. @@kingznkrookz1
👍
👍🏻
Exhaust heat didn’t burn anything?
Not at all. It was actually one of the specific things I was looking for. Thanks for reminding me. I should have mentioned that in the video.
Is it a pain to get into the trunk when the hitch is up?
You cannot get into the trunk with the carrier folded up if that’s what your asking.
How has it held up since you painted it
I haven't gone on any trips and put it out in the elements yet but I will soon!
I brought this and heading for trip soon. The rattle prevention clamp unfortunately is not doing much in my case. With empty carriage I still see it rattle. I also brought a new anti rattle clamp from HF and got same issue. I have 2inch hitch on my SUV. How was your experience with the anti rattle clip?
I did not experience much rattling, but I think it will rattle more with the empty carriage them with a load. The antirattle clamp it comes with, and the one from Harbor freight are very similar. Not the best quality. You could definitely buy better.
@@fixitFlip thank you. Any more tips for using this carriage on long trips?
Just try and balance your load as much as possible so stuff doesn’t slide around. Don’t put all the heavy stuff on one side for example. That and make sure all your straps are tight and tied up and you should be good to go!
@@fixitFlip thanks. We are on our trip. Just drove through the Mojave desert roads (even the dirt unpaved roads). So far all good.
The only thing I have noticed so far is that getting in/out of parking lots may scrape the bottom, so need to be careful.
Yes, true. The bend in the hitch pipe helps with that some but not 100%. Safe traveling. @@RaviGidwani5
