05 v6 with a bike carrier...ur thoughts?

[DRich43]

Hello,

I have a 2005 Limited V6 and am interested in a Dirt Bike carrier that goes into the 2" reciever and holds a dirt bike. Have any of you had one of these on your 4runner and if so how did ur 4runner perform with the bike on? I have a friend that puts one on a 2 door Blazer zr2 with airbags and it does great, he dosent even turn his bag system on....so how will our runners do?

Im looking to get a Versa-Haul for when im only taking one bike or meeting guys out on the trail.

Thanks,

Several here have used them... Colemanfu and RL Lemke come to mind. Check the link in my sig, the Airlift 1000 link.

My buddy has a Jeep Grand CHerokee with this carrier, says he has no problems on the road. We go about 80 miles one way to go riding.
It's a pain to load the bike up, even with the ramp.

I have used the Versahauler for 7 drama free years. What kind of bike ya going to haul? I haul a TW 200 or my 280 lb KTM LC4 640e. I add some cross straps (not sure if you can see the blue one) that runs from one side of the frame around the bike to the other side fo the frame to stop any side to side movement. I add some light up top cause the bike blocks the rear lights some. I also put a copy of my tag on the back of the hauler. Never been pulled over after all these years.

I did add some OME heavy duty springs to counter the sag. Before that I had air bags in the stock coils. You can see that with the rig loaded there is still a nice gap between the tire and wheel well.
