The patented Stowaway2 Swingaway frame is our most popular frame, offering full access to the rear of most SUVs, vans, minivans, RVs and trucks equipped with a 2" trailer hitch. Click here to see which Stowaway2 Cargo Carrier models feature this frame.
Features:
- Heavy-Duty Steel Construction: The heaviest frame on the market -- weighing 48 pounds -- the Swingaway frame features thick-walled steel tubing to maximize box stability.
- Swing Arm: Our unique design allows the swing arm to pivot a full 180 degrees to the passenger side. The frame swings back and away from the vehicle for maximum accessibility to the rear of your vehicle.
- High-Rise Design: For maximum ground clearance, the Swingaway frame features a rise that puts the bolting platform 8.5 inches above the bottom of your vehicle’s trailer hitch.
- Bolting Platform: Features four bolting locations for easy-on/easy-off box attachment. Also features rear side reinforcements to distribute the weight of your gear.
- Primary Safety: The Swingaway frame is equipped with a double-locking system. The primary safety is screwed in for an unmistakably tight fit.
- Backup Safety: The backup safety is located next to the pivot point and serves two purposes: to act as a backup safety when the frame is in the closed position and to lock the frame in the open position at 90 degrees for easy trunk loading/unloading.
Additional Information:
- For use on vehicles with a 2" trailer hitch (rated Class III and above).
- A Hitch Coupling Tightener is included with every Swingaway frame to reduce side-to-side wobble when the carrier is in use.
- A hitch pin is included with every Swingaway frame which will secure the frame into your vehicle’s hitch. We highly recommend upgrading to a Locking Hitch Pin, which will key-lock your frame to your vehicle’s hitch for maximum security.
- This frame is part #022.9. If you would like to order this frame a la carte (without a box), please click here.
