4Pro Series Cargo Carrier 24 x 60 - Excellent
By slvr68
Desperately needed a cargo carrier for camping in my F-150 Super Crew, and did a ton of internet research before buying. I have to say first off that this is one of the biggest carriers available, both in width @ 60" (foremost) and depth, and total weight capacity is excellent at 500 LB's. When you begin looking, what you'll notice right away is that carriers with brand names, and in smaller form factors are between $300 to $700! While I don't claim to be an expert on cargo carriers, I'm sorry but I don't want to spend that much money on something that you stack ice chests and cargo boxes on. I want to spend $$ on camping equipment that I have to have for my trips.....

Further to this, I would say that the quality of construction on this carrier is excellent. The welds are very good, and the gauge of steel used (frame) and quality of the powder coat finish are perfect. They also can supply (option)a regular (bulbs) or led tail light kit (more expensive) f or the carrier which in my opinion is a must. The tail light kit is superb and fits the oval openings perfectly with the supplied rubber inserts. The wiring harness supplied fits the lights well, however, as noted in other internet reviews is not of adequate length to reach some harnesses. My truck is already outfitted with a tow package, so all I had to do was hit the auto parts store and purchase an 48" extension. No big deal, and only costs around $5.

Assembly was very easy. The Carrier comes in two halves, and the unit is joined at the center (floor level) by a very robust 2" receiver bar that has a height offset to keep the carrier higher off the ground. Three large bolts go through the carrier halves and through the bar using locking nuts, and then four smaller bolts, both leading edge and trailing edge (center) connect the top half of the carrier. While the smaller bolts come with washers, the big bolts on the bottom do not. I would strongly recomm end that you purchase some large washers for the bottom bolts as well. Again, not a big expense, and they will help with wear and tear on the bar and frame.

Weight of the assembled unit is significant, so plan on having someone there to help you put it in the hitch. Why pull your back out trying to do it solo. :) I'd guesstimate that the carrier weighs about 60+ LB's. One other item to note is that the height of your cargo in the carrier may cover your license plate on the rear of the vehicle, so it would be a good idea to mount a license plate frame on the carrier so that you can move your plate to the carrier instead, that way it will be visible.

They also make a cargo bag for this carrier, which looked good, ballistic nylon I believe. I didn't need it because I won't be putting anything on the carrier that can't get wet in a storm, etc.

In summary, for the money, I don't feel you can beat this carrier. I give it a 4.75 Star rating. W ithout the extra work related to the wiring harness I would have gone 5 Star. BTW - Your unit will likely arrive with the outer cardboard totally destroyed, as they don't use very robust exterior packaging, however, your internals should be fine as they are zip tied to the carrier frame, and the corners of the carrier are protected by very thick foam. Mine arrived trashed, but the carrier and parts inside were just fine.

First trip with the carrier will be in a couple weeks, so once I have road tested it I will update the review.

4Works Great , Only one Problem
By Les Paul Hal
I actually use this cargo carrier on my 2008 Prius (believe it or not) and I took it to Las Vegas. It rides a little low since the Prius is so low to the ground anyway. It scrapes a little bit on steep entrances into parking lots, but that's not such a big deal. The problem I had in Las Vegas is someone sideswiped the back of my cargo carrier in the parking lot of my hotel. There was plenty of room in the parking lot to get around the cargo carrier, I had put reflective red tape on all sides of the cargo carrier and it happened in broad daylight. But the woman who sideswiped it just didn't see it. I think I should have spent a little extra money and got the cargo carrier that folds up to the tailgate of the car when not in use. P.S. There was no damage to my car or the cargo carrier, but it really messed up the side of a very nice Mustang convertible.

5Great Carrier
By River Rat
I had an antique professionally restored coin operated riding horse that I needed to transport from NY to Florida. It weighed about 350 pounds and I was a little concerned about transporting it in a hitch carrier, but that was really the only option available to me. After doing considerable research I bought the Pro Series 63152 60"x24" carrier that is rated for 500 lbs. The base of the horse ride was 55"x23.5" so it was a tight fit. I did a lot of checking in the rear view mirror, and I even had people at gas stations admonish me about carrying such a large load on the back of my vehicle. I am pleased to report however, that that the carrier performed flawlessly and I was able to transport my large 350 lb horse over 1400 miles in 3 days without any problems. The carrier is very well made and I would highly recommend it to others.
